[Rich Note: Went looking for a cross-correlative/triangulating companion image, in a “collected favorite file,” and this Perfectly Synchronous and Serendipitous “Flaming Eye of the Heart” popped-up first; and immediately called to mind the following, equally correlating favorite, ‘I Am’ Religious Activity, Natural (unintended) Haiku:

“O Blessed Flame of
Divine Love I Am Thy Pure
Presence Forever.”

It should also be noted that the “open and receive theme” of today’s haiku was inspired by the first teaching (“Open and You Will Receive”) in a randomly selected Audible by Gina Lake entitled: “Ten Teachings for One World”; a talk I listened to with buddy, Robert Biggly, yesterday morning, after a sometimes Saturday breakfast at the Diamond diner. May Wonders never cease.]

(1) Gospel of St. Thomas - Wise:

50 Jesus said,

1 "If they say to you, 'Where have you come from?' say to them, 'We have come from the light, from the place where the light came into being by itself, established [itself], and appeared in their image.' 

2 If they say to you, 'Is it you?' say, 'We are its children, and we are the chosen of the living Father.' 

3 If they ask you, 'What is the evidence of your Father in you?' say to them, 'It is motion and rest.'"

(2) Note-Wise:

[Rich Note: The “Zero One Amazement” is a characterization by Alan Watts, of what Bill Samuel might have called (in my words) the “fundamentally contradistinctive nature of self-reflective thinking or carnal-minded knowing,” that is so eloquently stated in the following extract from “Musings On the Road to Winnipeg,” (from a full 2009 SanfordInn.Com essay available at the link that follows the Extract) :

“...We began by trying to define happiness. I remembered my work more than 30 years before and that for one to perceive they are happy, they must abide in unhappiness – this is dualism – more specifically the binary nature of knowing, which Alan Watts called “Zero One Amazement” for its power to evoke a peak conscious state. In order for happiness to be explicitly known, we have to know unhappiness. This “unhappiness” is tacit – held within consciousness – and is subjective. In the act of knowing, “happiness” is objectified and in a sense exteriorized...”

Hay-Ku of the God (Go to the Source)

Father God, I wish
To “Go to the Source” where the
“I Amness First Moves.”

Father God, I wish
To “Be at the Source” where the
“I Amness First Moves.”

Father God, I wish
To “See from the Source” where the
“I Amness First Moves.”

Father God, I wish
To “See from the Source” where “All
Comes into Being.”

(1) Sri Nisargadatta-Wise:

“Go to the source for that movement where the ‘I Amness’ begins.” 

(2) Jesus-Wise: 

“If they ask you, 'What is the evidence of your Father in you?' say to them, 'It is motion and rest.'"

(3) Scripture-Wise:

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. …John 1:1-4 KJV

(4) Metaphor-Wise:

WORD: If a “word” is defined as an external vibratory pattern of energy intended to express or convey an inner thought or idea, is it not possible to characterize each and every man- made object you now see before you as a “living word?” For is not each such object simply a recurring pattern of physical energy that expresses an inner idea that once impressed another person’s mind? Do you yourself not also speak your mental ideas into physical being through words—vibratory patterns of external energy—in a similar fashion every time you speak or write? Might this same characterization not also hold true of the natural world?

(5) Add-On Hay-Ku-Wise:

Pure Potential is
Vibrantly Actualized at
A Perfect Still Point.

Pure Potential is
Vibrantly Actualized at
An Absolute Point.

Pure Potential is
Vibrantly Actualized at
A Still Point of Peace.

Hay-Ku of the Day (“Does God Exist?”)

HEY ATHEISTS:  “If GOD doesn’t exist... then how has everyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?”

 Poster Comment:  “Yeah? Well, then how can you explain (it)!?”

Explanation: Part 1 -

The Question is not
If there is a God, but Who
Is Playing the Role?

The Question is not
Whether God Exists, but Who
Is “Doing the Job.”

***

A Fatal Case of
Mistaken Identity
This Being Human

Thinking of myself
In Relative Terms I Am
Subject to Objects.

***

Playing God’s Role
Without the Divine Data
Bank ends Fatally. 

“Ego” is playing
The “Role of God” without the
“Divine Data Bank.”

***

“Believing Myself”
To be “Other than I Am”
Is a “False Premise.”

“Living Life” based on
A “False Premise” will lead to
A “False Conclusion.”

***

To Paraphrase Sri Nisargadatta: 

“Stop pretending to
Be what you are not” and “you
Will be what you are.”

To Paraphrase Buddha:

“If you find out who
You really are” you will “stop
Worshipping false gods.”

You will stop asking
Questions about God when you
Realize who you are.

[Rich Note: For any interested “humor police,” the poster did ask the question.  Besides, “believing I am something I am not,” and then “acting as if I am,” is the “Cosmic Joke” we are all subject to and so “playing on ourselves.”]

Explanation: Part II -

Related Comment: “I'm going to go ahead and say I mustn't be so smart as I don't even know WTF the question is....

Rich Response:,It’s not a matter of being smart, it’s about realizing I am (or we are) innocently misidentified with regard to who (or what) I (or we) ultimately am (or are); and so operate under the self-limiting constraint of “a false premise that leads to the false conclusion that I am (or we are) a finite being that is bound to die.

So with regard to ...I don’t even know what the question is...” the real question is not, “does God exist?” But...

“Who Am I?” prior to
Believing myself to Be
Other than “I am.”

Hint 1: “I am” refers to the “first person singular” of the “present tense” (of the verb) “to be.” 

Hint 2: “I am” is the short form of (or an abbreviated reference to) the “Awareness of Being or Consciousness I Am.”

[Rich Note: With the Cosmic Joke Punch Line Being: “I,” as the Quantum State Ocean of Consciousness I Am (You Are and All Is) have bamboozled myself into believing I am exclusively a Particle State Wave, destined to eventually die, and so live the limited and finite life “I have,”’under the shadow (illusion) of death.”]

Hay-Ku of the Day (Still Point Locus)

A “Still Point Locus”
Of “Absolute Focus” is
The “All-Seeing Eye.”

A “Still Point Locus”
Of “Absolute Focus” is
The “Heart of All.”

A “Still Point Locus”
Of “Absolute Focus” is
The “Axis of All.”

A “Still Point Locus”
Of “Absolute Focus” is
“Alpha Omega.”

***

I Am a Locus
Of Focus in a Field of
Aware Energy.

I’m a Perfectly
Expandable Locus of
Absolute Focus.

“I’s” a “Perfectly
Expandable Locus” of
“Absolute Focus.”

“Not other” than a
“Perfectly Expandable”
Locus” of “Focus.”

Sandy Jones-Wise:

“As I step toward the divine, unmoving, immeasurable zero point light, it has already rushed toward me, to engulf me with answers. It fills my heart. It fills the morning, it fills what night, revealing that love is all that matters. Love is always here, love is the life I am.  <3 span="">

(2) Sri Nisargadatta-Wise:

A. “That which makes you think that you are human is not human. It is but a dimensionless point of consciousness. A conscious nothing.”

B. “The teacher tells the watcher you are not this; there is nothing yours in this, except the point of ‘I am’, which is the bridge between the watcher and his dream...”

C. “In the immensity of consciousness a light appears, a tiny point that moves rapidly and traces shapes, thoughts and feelings, concepts and ideas, like a pen writing on paper. And the ink that leaves a trace is memory. You are that tiny point and by your movement the world is ever re-created. Stop moving and there will be no world. Look within and you will find that the point of light is the reflection of the immensity of light in the body as the sense ‘I am’. There is only light all else appears.“

(3) Dr. Evan Alexander-Wise: 

“He (Dr. Evan Alexander) reported being simply a ‘point of awareness’ at various times, with no self-concept or identity.”  (Transcribed quote from “Reality Unveiled,” by Ziad Masri)

I Am a Point of 
Consciousness without any
Self-Referencing.

I Am a Point of 
Consciousness prior to any
Separate self-sense.

I Am a Point of 
Consciousness without any
Conceptual self.

Quantum State of Mind.

Centered in the One
Abiding in the Balance
Mindful of the Light.

Constant Awareness

Unspeakable Peace.

[Rich Note: Ran across these in a 2000 Topica website post, while doing some archiving, and felt them worthy of resurrection. The only one that found its way into OOMM was the third one, a perennial top 5 favorite. Author or not, the other four felt new.]
