Can anyone read this?

I wonder if you can read this message.

Before you answer the question, please allow me to clarify what I mean.

What does it mean to read a message and understand it really? I don't mean seeing the words and passively listening as your inner voice reads them.

But rather, to really have a clear mind that is awake and understands what is being said. To actively participate in the conversation.

To do this, you must be completely free from beliefs, ideas, concepts and any sort of attachment whatsoever. You mustn't bring anything at all to it.

One sign you can't read a message clearly is if you have to go back and read what you just read. This is the hallmark of an agitated, distracted mind.

Another sign is that you are constantly measuring what you are reading against something in your memory, like whether or not what you're reading matches up with what you believe, or whether it jives with what some expert you trust has said, or whatever the case may be.

That is not real understanding. If you approach any writing, or really anything at all in life in that way, you have blinders on... a sort of filter of awareness that is intrinsically ignorant.

So what does it mean to be able to really read this message? If you find that out, you won't ever need to make an effort at anything ever again. (To understand how that is true requires a very deep understanding of what it means to make an effort. I'm not making a promise of utopia, but rather pointing out the true nature of effort and by implication of identity.)

You won't need to write out a sheet of goals, you won't need to meditate, you won't need to put any effort into becoming anything better or arriving someday at so called "success". And the successes you do choose to enjoy will come with shocking ease and enjoyment.

Unfortunately I can't say what this state of being is... I can only say what it is not. Similar to how a sculptor who has a vision chisels away what his vision is not out of the stone he's working on, so that you as the audience can see what it is.

But it is much easier to transmit the how-to of it in person. I wonder if any of you would be interested in learning this or think it'd be a good idea for a business, to teach real meditation that would actually wake people up so that they could see clearly? Who would be interested in that? To be truly free of the rat race and be completely satisfied exactly where they were in life.

Not six-months from now when you've made your first $100.00 or $1000.00 online, not when you've finally achieved your weight loss goals, not when you've finally become able to be social and get attention from your sexual fancy... but right now. Here. Today. To be truly satisfied completely independent of arbitrary circumstance.

I wonder...
