(from Kuhachi's Japanese blog on 11/10/19)
I received a lot of messages and reactions after releasing this article.
Many messengers told me that they got the actual meaning of, what I and Yumi call, “reality-nature being”.
What we talk about is to completely settle in ‘Life, Ageing, Illness and Death’.
Today’s topic is about ‘Illness’.
There is a huge difference like heaven and earth between ‘the way of your thinking’and ‘the reality-nature being itself’.
In the reality-nature being itself, there is a natural ability to see everything through as it is, which never contains anything originally.
So for instance, even when there is an illness or a pain, the reality-nature shows that there is no struggle, suffering, hardship and unhappiness etc in it.
Whereas in the way of your thinking, you see an illness or a pain from the very beginning as some problem, as if it is something to suffer and hard... inevitably you end up dividing it into good or bad, something ok or something to avoid.
What you need to realise is that no one can get away from ‘the reality-nature itself’ever. There is actually only this appearance of the Universal Law.
That is to say, in other words, we have and are only the reality-nature itself, which is the Law of coming and going at the same time all the time.
An old Japanese children’s song called ‘Kagome Kagome’sings about this reality-nature Law.
It goes like this:
Kagome Kagome
A bird in a cage
When does it see?
Before the dawn
A crane and a turtle slipped away
Who is there right behind you?’
First of all, I want you to just hear what I talk about as it is.
There are so many speakers nowadays, who have pre-concepts from the beginning.
Some of them force you to go towards somewhere by establishing some sort of method.
But when you see their daily lives via their blogs or interviews etc, you notice that they tend to have full of conflicts, struggles, confusions, depressions and they come across to be very emotionally unsettling, stressed, attacking and problematic.
For me it is a wonder where to these speakers are leading the followers. ?
You need to see through these speakers’‘reality-nature’itself.
It is best not to get muddled up with someone’s logic, way of thinking, opinions and methods.
‘The reality-nature’shows you very honestly that you never need something like that I mentioned just above.
The other day I had a session over phone, and this lady told me that she had been struggling and confused with learning through a method called ‘non duality enlightenment method’.
No matter how much she tried to get it, she eventually got mentally low and depressed.
Initially my talk did not seem to click in her, she became aware of ‘the reality-nature’itself, which contains nothing purely and originally, in her daily life.
I was very happy to hear about it.
What is the point of leading anyone to anywhere via such a method as ‘playing enlightenment’. ?
There is nowhere to go or lead!
Only use is what you are experiencing and touching itself.
As long as you are trying to get somewhere and thinking to go anywhere, you would not be able to see ‘the reality-nature itself’.
You won’t see it, as long as you are holding on to your way of seeing and thinking, concepts or values.
There is everything originally before your recognition or judgement.
‘Now’is not something to look for.
A lot of people go away from ‘the reality-nature itself now’by some method.
I have many people who come to see me after learning through ‘non-duality’.
After talking to me many of them naturally came to realitse what they were actually looking for by themselves. Thank you for everyone :)
