The Oneness of being.

You are a powerful being.
You may be a great thinker, you may be a big feeler but at your depth you are an immensely powerful Being.
In this vast ocean of existence there are many individual waves the arise for a time.
Some are big and some are small, ultimately as they arise they dissolve again.
If you follow any individual wave down to its depths you will find the one ocean, the source of all waves.
With out the depths the ocean would be but a desert.

You are the wave, you are the ocean.
For as sure there are waves they are supported by the very depths they arise from.
So too, As you Go Deeper following your own awareness down to its depths you will find the oneness of being.
This state of being is you and yet it is greater than you, for your are all things and yet you are no thing.
Be the wave, Be the depths. Hold these two truths united in your heart mind and let the games begin.
There is no bigger game to play.

Every Quarter I co host a one day forum called Go Deeper. It is an ontological forum where we choose to stop doing stuff and just be together. There is no higher purpose for human existence.
It is our in ability to be with ourselves and others that causes so much conflict and suffering in the world. We consume endlessly to try to ease the pain of this split from being with in ourselves and our communities. This is the essence of Go Deeper.
If you want to know more just email me at dorje@dorje.com.au
I also have a wed night at my place in bondi for crew in their 20’s and early 30’s called agents of change. It is the same principle we enjoy meditation, qi gong, live music and take the opportunity to show up in the room and be seen by others.
Again if you interested just send me an email.

Search for Purpose.

They say that a Tourist doesn’t know where they have been and a traveler doesn’t know where they are going. For me I felt like I was slowly making the transition between being a tourist and a traveler. Where was I going… I didn’t know. All I had was my intention and a sense of purpose. I was on a mission to find my Teacher and I was prepared to go anywhere and do anything. My purpose was to learn so that I may share that wisdom with others and perhaps if I learnt well enough and through dedication and hard work, tireless effort I may make such an impact on them that they may go on to teach others and so on and so on, a some what idealistic dream but it was all that I wanted to do. My soul purpose you might say.

So I had interviews with Abbots of Monasteries and Lamas of various Traditions. I was looking for the most qualified Teacher I could find and at the same time I knew nothing of what I was looking for. I had no way to tell a good teacher from a not so good teacher. No way to know a fake or phony, Perhaps if they had light shining from there eyes or could tell me who I was in my former life and what I was looking for… but no, none of that was likely to happen.
Here I was the blind leading myself along a road at night trying to find my way.
Reminds me of Shantideva a great India Yogi and Scholar that I was to learn about later in my studies, He had a most marvelous saying, the kind of thing you need to hear at time like this.
He would say something along the lines of:

It is like your walking through the hills in the middle of the night, lost trying to find your way. And then a flash of lightening lights up the nights sky and it all becomes clear just for a few moments so that you can get your bearings once again and continue upon your way.

I think in moments when I have been looking for an answer or for a reason to go on I am lucky cause I know that lightening comes, sooner or later if you just stay put and wait it will come.

The Rainstorm

There is something to be learnt from a rainstorm.
When meeting with a sudden shower, you try not to get wet and run quickly along the road.

But doing such things as passing under the eaves of houses, you still get wet.

When you are resolved from the beginning, you will not be perplexed though you still get the same soaking.
This understanding extends to everything…..........HAGAKURE (taken from the book of the samurai-Yamamoto Tsunetomo)
