Let go of every concept and every perception as a window to reality. Every concept, every perception, let go of that idea that you'll ever be able to know reality intellectually or through any methodology or through any religion or through any map. Let go of that idea, number one. Number two, Embrace presence. See, when you embrace presence, I'm not talking about the present moment.
Presence is bringing awareness to whatever is. Now, because awareness is infinite, no form, right? Infinite. Then the finite experience... is actually dependent on the infinite. So the infinite is present in every finite experience. Once you realize that, then God is not difficult to find. God is impossible to avoid.

There's nowhere that you, no experience that is possible without the infinite in the background. No experience.

The infinite is present in every finite experience. Once you realize that, then God is not difficult to find. God is impossible to avoid. Only direct experience can give you access to reality. Not religion, not philosophy, not science. Number one, let go of every concept and every perception as a window to reality. Number two, embrace presence. What remains is pure consciousness.

That's who you are. Our technological evolution has outpaced our emotional and spiritual evolution. Therefore, we are in a dangerous phase. We have medieval minds and modern capacities. On the other hand, you can reverse climate change. You can get rid of war, chronic disease. The choice is ours. So this whole thing is a lucid dream in a vivid now. And it's ungraspable. Wake up to who is dreaming.

I am nothing conceivable or perceivable. And so are you. Nothing perceivable or conceivable. If you want to expand on that, you are awareness. Or consciousness, I use the word synonymously. So consciousness has no form. You can't see it, right? Because it's what it's seeing. And because it has no form, it has no border. Anything that has form has a border.
