- What is, is just what is. Whatever is happening-arising, thinking, expectation, trying to get something other than what is, looking for the way out or not-is just happening. Sitting on a chair, yeah, this is just what is. There's no doer of just what's happening or what seems to be happening. Thinking that there is a doer of this is already this, in the sense that there's no separation. The thoughts that may seem to appear in this can never be separate from this. There's never not this. Everything is this, no matter what shape or form it may appear to be. It can never really be anything other than this.
This can never be known, it can never be understood, it can never be gotten because it's everything already. There's no separate self who's looking for this, and there's no separate self who will eventually become one with this. There's nothing to be done to become this. There's just this already, so there is already no journey, there are no steps. There's never really anything to be done here. There's nowhere to get to, and there's nobody to get anywhere already. Someone who's trying to get somewhere is already just this. So there is already no one here, even when there is thinking or the assumption that there is someone here who's doing anything. There is no one. The "me" can never collapse, the "me" can never fall away because there's no "me" already. It's just this already appearing as a "me" who's searching.
When the recognition happens, it is recognized that there wasn't anyone seeking. It is just what is appearing as somebody who was seeking. So this is just what is. There's no one to fall away, there's nothing to get. There’s just simply this. There is no one behind those eyes who's on the journey, there is no center. The center is imaginary, yet the imagination is not right or wrong. It's just what seems to be happening in this. So this is the end of seeking-just simply this. Yet it may appear as seeking, which is already empty in the sense that there is no seeker. There can be just seeking arising, which isn't going anywhere. So everything that seems to be happening is already empty. Thinking that there's somebody sitting on the chair looking at the computer screen is already empty. It’s just thinking. It’s not evidence that there's a real somebody sitting on the chair. Those are just thoughts.
