Kaitaki: Callum, Australia

The intellect of the seeker seeking enlightenment cannot function without a corresponding object as it's support. The intellect of the liberated being is not limited and restricted by any desire even for liberation.

. . .

He whose sense of personal doership has dropped off through intuitive in-seeing of his true nature finds no reason to speak or do anything, even though in the eyes of the ordinary people he leads a normal working life.

. . .

The man of wisdom is devoid of thought even when he is thinking; he is devoid of sense organs even when he is using them; he is devoid of intellect even though he is endowed with it. He is devoid of the ego, even though he possesses it.

. . .

The liberated one who abides in the Self under all conditions, who is free of the concepts of action and duty, who is totally without desires, remains unconcerned with all actions that take place, and does not brood over what has been done and what has not been done.

I thought this as I cropped this picture:

When you wake up tomorrow, look at how much you own. If you own little, your path in this life has been a good choice. If you are wealthy whilst those around you are poor, you are destined to suffer the most hideous of Betweens (this life and the next). All the money you accumulate is at the expense of glory and creativity. The more wealthy (in a material sense) you become the more your soul dies. There comes a point where your soul is useless and cannot be utilised in any further incarnations. This is full devolution to 'worthlessness'.

'When the Original Cause determined my being
I was given the first lesson of love.
It was then that the fragment of my heart was made
The Key to the Treasury of Pearls of mystical meaning.'

'Quatrain 55', Omar, son of Abraham the Tentmaker.

As Saadi said in 'Rose Garden':

'Deep in the sea are riches beyond compare; but if you seek safety it is on the shore'.

And Beloved Rumi:

Oh Beloved,
take me.
Liberate my soul.
Fill me with your love and
release me from the two worlds.
If I set my heart on anything but you
let fire burn me from inside.

Oh Beloved,
take away what I want.
Take away what I do.
Take away what I need.
Take away everything
that takes me from you.
