Manifestation is the expression of your Being, not of what you do. There is no separated individual, so there is no individual able to do or to choose anything. When the illusion to be person is present Life it will seem like the happening of something that is relatable to a someone. As this recognition to be the dreamer of the dream of life occours you will start to notice the similarities between what is experienced innerly and what appears outernly.
But when you search for this someone you will disocver than nothing is present but the action of the mind as thoughts or feelings that belong to the moment and that changes in any istant.
The Dream of the world is the expression of the Dreamer not as act of volition, but as expression of its nature.

Free will, by Avasa
Whatever choice is made is freely made in that it is a result of the circumstances that the body/mind finds itself in, which are one thing. The chooser, the choice made and the thing chosen are One action. Consciousness and its object are always One.
The form cannot act outside of the given circumstances of the moment that it finds itself in.
The idea that another choice could have been made is an error, this error too is at the same time an impersonal action arising in consciousness. The choice that is made is the only one that was made because it was the only one that COULD have been made because of the circumstances of that particular moment. It was made by no one! just an action unfolding within the Whole.
There is a train of thought that gives the impression that things can be other than they actually are but as things are as they are and not as they are not it is not provable. It is therefore just another of the many theories based upon the idea that things can be other than they are when clearly they can only be as they actually are.
These theories, which are all based upon the holding to of the concept that there is someone within the form, tend to fall away once it is seen that there is no one and that all is action only being witnessed by an inactive Awareness.
If it is seen that there is no one within the form in actuality then it is clear that there is no one who has free will for there is no one TO have it, yet thought arises and out of the many thoughts that appear certain ones are the ones that are put forward as choices or decisions and others are simply not put forward in this way.
This is the mystery which will never be solved.
That the One consciousness that lives as and through all forms naming itself “I” or “me” creates is a fact but how this does so will never be known. There is no plan prior to the appearance of the thought as it appears out of an empty Awareness.
Although it appears that it is the thoughts and feelings themselves that are the actual stuff of creating this is not so for they themselves are made out of the non-stuff which witnesses there appearance. This witnessing Awareness which is not locatable within time and space, is the One that gives rise to them and it is this that is the actual creator.
Thoughts are a manifest part of the process of manifestation.
SO….. as long as the concept that one is something or someone within the form is believed and persists so does the concept of free will. Once this belief falls away so does the question of free will when it is seen that there is no one to have such a thing.
The One Awareness which alone is responsible for all of creation creates freely without choices or decisions, such things are part of what is already created.

Behind every eye receiving the images received by the eye is the one that lives as and through all form.
What is generally believed is that there is an individual somebody or something behind the senses of what appear to be many separate forms, it is this belief that creates the sense of separation which is the cause of suffering in the human experience.
This belief, which is no more than an assumption, is brought about and has its continuation because the assumed separate one is not looked for. When the word ME or I is used it is assumed that the word is relating to the body or something within it and as this is not actually the case the illusion of many separate me-s is created.
The one that assumes that the word me or I is referring to an inner subjective object within the form is itself actually formless. By accepting itself as an objective figure it ceases to be able to recognise itself as no-thing, non-objective, in the misconception that it is some-thing. It is this identification with oneself as being something when the truth of oneself is that one is no-thing that causes the confusion that gives rise to suffering. This is the illusion which the Indian tradition has named Maya.
The Source of what appears to be many separate objects is this no-thingness. It is this One that is experiencing it's own no-thingness as the experience of the universe.
As long as this identification with the form that appears, which is no other than it's own action manifesting, continues then so does the illusion that one is a separate being amongst other separate beings and it is this sense of otherness that creates fear which then does not allow the seeing of Oneness, that all is One, that all is essentially Love and that one is equal to this.
The only One that experiences Life as and in the human form, or any other form for that matter, is the Source itself. You and I are this source, we are the same One. Not recognising this fact this one as an apparent you and I lives the illusion of separation. What is experiencing itself in your form is the one that is also experiencing itself in all other forms, no where in all that appears is there actually separation except as a an idea that leads to the belief that it is so.
When one recognises ones self to be nothing at all then this realisation of Oneness spontaneously appears. This nothingness, being prior to the somethingness that creates the sense of time and space, is immediately recognised to be the ever-present eternal One itself and the only One that actually is.
This one that we all are, and that all is, is in itself still, unmoving and silent yet paradoxically it creates all action that appears as the objective experience of the world and the universe. From this place of stillness, which is not locatable in time and space, this one is witness to its own show. A one-man band as it were. Literally speaking all that you are presently experiencing as yourself and your world is a manifestation of your own Being for you are the Source. As the no-thingness you give rise to the some-thingness that appears as manifest existence which is an activity of the stillness of your Being.

To Avasa for his birthday
Always be yourself
this is what you taught me my friend
the world will not honour who does not understand
that its root is here right where you are
just a reflection with which to have fun
Dancing freely without any safe place
to run to, to escape and so fear to mantain
you have risked everything all the time
with a smile, knowing that your gambling
was just the only way to live Life
Now many are seeing the gift that you shared
in never accomplishing what you could not to bear
to follow the mass, its illusion and bluff
entertaining what you could not see there
a separated me, the duality game
Your Freedom is such that is now Total Love
in this Free Awareness all the world is hugged
the light of your wisdom that is craziness too
has put in flame this Heart untill it was mad too
and so many other now want to say thanks
to this lover of Truth, a master of innocence
that takes each moment as a gift nevertheless
each instant so precious your eye really see
and let it be a treasure for who now you meet
Thank you mySelf, my Love, my Lord
from darkness to light, you guru, many have brought
and now just Light is and fear is no more
your joy all mine, your fun my delight
the same gratefulness now we share all the time.

about war
hi dear
if you stop your fighting the war and world injustices for a moment you would notice how your fighting is not so much differnt from what you dislike.
muslims think to be right, catholics think to be right, hindu think to be right, left party think to be right, right party think to be right...what is right and what is wrong then?
thinking to be the only one right is very arrogant and for sure source of conflict.
did you ever saw birds flying and having a meeting for who has to be
the one on front? did you ever see the branches of a tree fighting to grow in a direction instead than another? If an ivy kills a tree is the ivy evil? If a mommy cat eats her kitties should be put in prison?
what you dont like of the war and abuse and conflict is that those things create a bad feeling in yourself. Observe it, stay with it, let it be present without pushing it away. Dont be in conflict with your conflit. Love is the answer, always. If you love yourself fully as you are you cannot do anything else but love the others. If you love your conflict it will dissolve, if you allow it to be present without pushing it away. In this dissolving what it will remain it will be what is, and what is will be reflecting what is happening in you. They are not two separate things. Take an angry person, that insults and swears at you. You dont react because what you see is someone just suffering. Nobody reacts and agrees and just sees a suffering person over there, someone that does not love himself or herself someone that is not in peace. If nobody reacts his anger will dissolve and it will turn into tears.
Now imagine that the anger of this person resonates with the anger of someone else. The second person will agree and starts to fight togheter...on the other hand there will be someone else that will think "this is disgusting, we have to do something, we have to stop all this, it is necessary to develop solidariety". Another party will be formed, it will be made of good people fighting the conflict.
War will start, more conflict, hate will be shared. This is how things have been so far. War keeps on existing in humanity because there is agreement on conflict, we share and agree our emotional poison. If everybody would be able to dissolve the conflict in themselve war would not probably exist as humanity is right now. We would be natural, like a tree or a bird. Animal kill each other but not out of hate. It is a matter of survival. Love is present in the eys of the gazelle as wel as in the eyes of teh lion. Love moves them. Thereis no neurosis about it.
Humankind has reached enough richness to allow every form to be well and safe. But there is conflict, greediness and this will perpetuate untill conflict will be stopped. And it is stopped only where you are, right now. Observe your conflict, observe how much you hate certain people or situation. You are killing yourself through another form when you hate someone, even if you are fighting for peace. Revolution is where you are. Revolution is not about fighting, it is about turning the world and see it for what it is, your creation. You see what you wanna see in the world and you will see conflict when there is conflict in you. Conflict will stop existing for you when you will be in peace.
In my world there is people awakening. I hope you will be in my dream, so I will be in your as Bob Dylan said.

All is Awareness
What is experiencing Life through your form is Awareness. Look well, you are aware that there is a body, probably a room, a computer, and that there are probably thoughts and feelings that are what we call mind.
What knows of the presence of those things is you, you know that they are there because you are aware of them.
But if you try to define this you, unless you choose to pick on memories or on objects of which you are aware of (like saying, I am so and so, I have this body that is American, or British, etc etc) you cannot describe this you. In other words, what we call "me" is always a description of something that we are aware of, not of this Awareness in itself.
So the message is, you are Awareness, an Awareness that is aware of itself (or not aware of itself) through the form called so and so. When Awareness is not aware of itSelf believes to be the objects that itself is observing, like the body called Fred or Laura. When instead is aware of itself knows to be just what is witnessing those objects.
What are those objects? They appear IN this Awareness, and unless this Awareness is aware of them, they dont exist. This form called Shakti did not exist before it appeared for you, Awareness. This is what we mean when we say that you created me and all the rest. Because before I appear in your Awareness I simply dont exist. It is only AFTER I appeared that you can say, "yes of course Shakti comes from Italy, she has this past and so and so". So this means that all the objects, the apparent external ones like the body and the room and the inner ones, like thoughts and feelings, appear IN you Awareness, and they have been created by YOU Awareness. When you dont think a certain thought where is it that thought? It does not exists for you.
And this is valid also for all the rest, people, cars, objects, feelings, memories. So EVERYTHING is appearing in you and disappearing in you all the time. Also the "story" of the "me" is appearing and disappearing, the story of Fred, Laura, etc. What is ACTUALLY happening in the moment is that those thoughts, the story of the me, is appearing as all the other objects.
So all objectivity is nothing but a movement in Awareness, an action, something that appears and disappears. You dont have a body when you are in deep sleep, for you in that moment the body does not exist. The body appears in the moment in which Awareness becomes again aware of itself in the morning. This is the very opposite of what we believe. We believe to be a something in the body, or something IN the body called soul that is someway connected to something bigger like a higher Self or God.
The truth is that we are God. We are this Higher Self. But this Higher Swelf is trapped in the illusion to be in a form. When you look well, when you check where is this Awareness that is Aware of everything you canot find it. Everything is, but where are you respoect all those things? Check for yourself, I dont want you to believe what I am saying. There is no need to believe, I dont believe what I am writing I can see it, right now, as well as you can if you stop holding on to the idea to be a separated individual.
So all manifestation, being a movement of Awareness that is created by Awareness and disappers in Awareness, is nothing else than Awareness itself. This means that the body, the room, the thoughts, the feelings are nothing more than Awareness, Awareness experiencing Awareness. All is One.
If there is no individual, where is the free of the individual? There is what is, that is arising spontansouly and freely. The apparent decisions and choices of the body are witnessed by you
Awareness, included the ideas that there is a separated me performing them.
The choices are done, not as act of volition of the individual, but as an act of creation of God. So in a sense YOU, Awareness, are choosing everything. Not just what your body-mind does, but also the weather of the day, and the blowing of thw wind on the trees outside of the window. You dont choose that the wind is blowing before that the wind is blowing. It appears. You, Awareness, have created. But you have been creating it IN THE MOMENT, the Eternal moment, not before. There is no before. There is only now. And this Now is changing all the time, and it is observed by the same Now.
