‘You really never had any choice at all, but one choice.
That’s as far as free will goes.
This free will is only true until it is seen that it is not.’
The Master, Satguru, the Awakener, these are provokers, they are not sympathisers. It is the provocation, and this insult to the position. That is the Great Love. That is the compassion. You’ve had enough of this sympathy.
The common state is fully associated with this way of establishing dilemma and having a pre-arranged response of sympathy. And this very dependency, which is in fact separation, is the root of the discomfort, not the content. And it appears that there is in this tendency of habit and momentum, there appears to be a qualification to maintain and extend. And what’s lost is the capacity to recognize what one is in fact seeking in it. Not to maintain it, it’s seeking happiness, it’s seeking itSelf, it’s seeking God, it’s seeking the Divine Condition and will play out as it plays out. And that too is all fine and well. It’s difficult too, considering that play that it too is somewhat, if not entirely, impersonal. Just a lot of story, superimposed on what is your Awakening, what is your unfoldment, what is the embodiment of Truth. Each carries qualities and tendencies that are completely impersonal. They are not your doing. Yet it appears that it may establish a doer. They are not your acting and yet it appears that it may establish an actor. This disagreement and this position of like and dislike claims its own position. You really never had any choice at all, but one choice. That’s as far as free will goes. Like solving and unfolding, this free will is only true until it’s seen that it is not.
Could probably say that no one here had any plan about meeting Samana, no one had any scheme or arrangement to meet Samana, no one had a map, a plan, a method, and even in coming here.
As Samana could be said, that this was all already seen, when first meeting any of you, this was, this here, and all your work and ordeals and challenges to get here, it was already done, this had already happened and it’s just serving to appear to arrive at something, somewhere.
This is the nature of Realisation, is that it’s already the case. The relation with time is located for the moment. It’s a useful navigational tool, period. Relative doesn’t necessarily connote the opposite of Absolute, relative means relative to the Truth, relative to the Absolute. The Absolute and the Truth has no opposite.
So all the planning and difficulty, getting online, and arranging this and arranging that, I can assure you, this is already happened and you are working your way to what already Is. This is also establishing that which has not happened yet, but which is already so. This itself is a gateway. You all have unified, so to speak, your ordeals. There is no plan, there is no desire, there is no want in it, for Samana, at all. But it could be said, that there will be this, that you have not met yet and that you are establishing something as you get established. It’s as simple as that. There is no such thing as ‘one persons Awakening’, this is the common delusion.
