Some Key Questions


It is surprising to me that I wrote faithfully on Facebook for a long period of time and got no real support when I chose to leave it. Few people followed me on my blog and I am grateful to them. I have no plans to return to Facebook or to the nonduality discussion forums that proliferate. I am now hiding in plain sight and the few will find me.

I am learning to ask myself a very key question and you would do well to begin doing the same thing. Where is my joy hiding?

It is not hiding on Facebook.
It is not hiding in another person’s face.
It is not hiding in nature.
It is not hiding in animals.
It is not hiding in anything outside of the Self that I am.

Where is my freedom hiding?
It is not hiding in making other people happy or secure.
It is not hiding in making myself happy or secure.
It is not hiding in anything outside of the Self that I am.

Where is my security hiding?
It is not hiding in making other people feel safe.
It is not hiding in making other people feel loved.
It is not hiding in making other people feel accepted.
It is not hiding in anything outside of the Self that I am.

I am strong.
I am loved.
I am the Self.

  1. Nothing is hiding… We can only see what we pay attention to, and we are well trained to pay attention to everything but our real self, so we keep doing it unconsciously until the moment we realize this.
