Complete surrender to God unveils the truth; nothing is hidden. Only the ego is blind, and Reality lies just beyond the mind. Out of the fear of becoming nothing, consciousness denies its only reality that it is everything — the infinite, everlasting Allness out of which existence itself arises. From: “The Eye of the I: From Which Nothing is Hidden” (2002), Chapter 19: Commentaries and Examples, pp. 289-290 -------------------------------- With Additional Context: -------------------------------- Q: Where or when could enlightenment occur? If there is no reality such as time or here or now, nor a real me to become enlightened, how can it be possible? A: If it were a phenomenon that had to occur at a certain time or place, then indeed it would not be a possibility. The only explanation is that the state or condition termed enlightenment already is a reality and therefore needs only to be allowed to be realized in order to prevail. What already is requires no future. Acceptance is an ever-present option. Complete surrender to God unveils the Truth. Nothing is hidden; only the ego is blind. Reality lies just beyond the mind. Out of the fear of becoming nothing, consciousness denies its only reality that it is everything - the infinite, everlasting Allness out of which existence itself arises.Truth prevails when falsity is surrendered. To do this, however, requires great dedication, courage, and faith, which are supplied by divine inspiration in response to surrender. The trigger is the consent of the Will. Q: Can you say more about where and when God is realizable? A: The doorway to Divinity is located and available as a direct experience in the exact split second of now which is discernible between two thoughts. To the mind, this instant arises and passes. Between the arising and the passing away is the aperture which allows consciousness to become aware of the ever-present, infinite, timeless Reality. The arising of this instant is the unfolding of God as Creation. The universe is the historical record of Gods creation. Remember that the is of now becomes the was of the next instant. There is no separation between Creator and created, no subject or object; they are one and the same. Such terms as new or old are only nonexistent points of view, like now or then. We are the constant witness to Creation at the very moment of Creation itself. What we witness is the Hand of God as experience. Awareness is the Eye or witness, and Creation is the handiwork of the infinite Self. The truth of the ongoingness of the unfoldment of Creation is hidden behind the beliefs, perceptions, and illusions of causality. The miracle of Creation is continuous, and its appearance is the scintillation of appearance.” From: “The Eye of the I: From Which Nothing Is Hidden” (2002), Chapter 19: Commentaries and Examples, pp. 289-290
