Always Unconfined

Recognizing that the nature of all phenomena is open, clear and ungraspable equals complete relief from the obsession of needing to control what is going on internally or externally.

Also, it is seen that the points of view of 'internal' and 'external' themselves are also ungraspable, pure clarity.

Short moments of recognition of the way things actually are unwinds the claustrophobic grip of both conceptual and non-conceptual frames of reference, resulting in increasingly spontaneous and ecstatic freedom beyond what was imagined to be possible when there were blind assumptions back-dropping ones experience of being alive.

Limitations only exist in relation to structures of understanding, when those structures are seen exactly as they are, without the unsteady confusion of rejection or indulgence, then they are directly known to have no authority or power of their own.

Limitation is just another face of the always-already unlimited, self-aware reality which encompasses everything.

Openness of Mind

By taking short moments to relax all descriptions and assumptions about anything, the compulsion to believe in them settles and the suffering that they entail no longer concerns us. We are left with only openness of mind, with no need to prove or reject any view.
Openness of mind = freedom from suffering.

Fearlessness

In the very moment fear arises, it simultaneously flowers and passes within the space of awareness, which remains unaffected, pristine and free. Since fear cannot be found even in the perception of fear, we start to learn to take the word fear and all of it's popular connotations lighly and find we are living life with increasing freedom.

Timeless Safety

Awareness is not effected by any of our points of view.......

Notice this for short moments, and relax knowing the complete, timeless safety that it entails. This complete and timeless safety is the basic state of everything, irrespective of any condition or absence of any condition. Awareness is all-pervasive, it is completely satisfied. This is wonderful!

Reality Satisfied As It Is

Personal peace, rooted in reality as it is, relieves us of the endless hamster wheel of chasing "better experiences" that never satisfy us.

True Love

"True love is knowing you need nothing from anyone else for your well-being, it is knowing wholly and completely your already interconnectedness and completeness with all things. Then you are left simply appreciating and supporting every single person in your life to be the best they can be. Hooray for bright, perfect love!"
