This Meditation Is An Invitation To
The Absolute Moment
From Time to Timeless Here & Now:
Listening to the audios/videos helps pierce through the amnesia of the Self, and practicing the living meditation breaks you out of the prison of self to the Blissful Home of Self.
The INFINITY meditation and the “SO WHAT, I AM” meditation compliment and strengthen each other.
Pointers To Help Grasp The Meditation
Video 1 & 2
Absence is the “original state’. It refers to the absence of presence. The absence of knowing. In the “original state” The Self does not know itSelf. It is, but does not know it.
What is consciousness?
Consciousness is Self-reflection. That is, it is the Self reflecting upon itSelf. It shows up as presence, that is, anything that can be known, recognized.
In truth you are beyond consciousness. Consciousness is your reflection. You are not your reflection. That is, you are not anything that can be recognized.
Look at the drawing: you can see the reflection but you can’t see the Seer!

Absence Is the womb. It contains presence. It is capacity for all that is present. Presence never leaves the womb. When awareness wakes up it is as though presence is born. But it is always there. Just like the space and objects in your room are there even when the light is off and you cannot see them.
Presence does not have autonomous existence. We forget the absence, and think everything exists independently of it. De-hypnotize from the absence by remembering the background whence it originates. The “Seeing beyond the seen” is something you can stop and pay attention to many times through the day.

You can view coming and going on small levels (like atoms) or on bigger levels (like stars). The big levels are made of the smaller levels. In these levels particles move so fast, and the deeper the scientist tries to examine what exactly is the fundamental particle — the more emptiness he finds.
Ultimately, nothing exists. That is, not separately. Not independently. The small particles make up bigger particles which makes up bigger particles which seem to make up solid things. But every thing is empty. If you study your body you will find cells, then molecules, then atoms, then quarks... but soon you will find there is no body. Hence body is no body. Form is emptiness. And vice versa.
When you are aware of change, you start to see that CHANGE IS ALL THERE IS. All this change makes up what seem to be solid unchanging things. We think of our emotions and relationships this way as well. For example, when there is a negative emotion the mind responds like it will be there forever. It neglects the temporary nature of all things. This meditation brings the mind in touch with the real nature of things.
There is only change. HOWEVER... all of this change takes place in the womb, the Home of the changeless, the “place” where there is no possibility of change or no change — the absolute absence.
Hence, all this ever-changing flow takes place in the Timeless and Changeless. There is just the Absolute Moment of Now, totally outside of time (which is change).
More Tips...
Free Will?
What if everything can only happen the way it happens?
What if the present has to be the way it is for the future to be the way it already is?
What if there is no ‘chooser’?
What if everything that comes and goes has to come and has to go?
If things happen the only way they can, and nothing can be changed, nothing can be different — then you can relax, no?
A car cut in front of you in a very rude and dangerous manner, will you blame the driver, honk at them, get into a fight when you know it couldn’t have happened differently?
Regardless of what you will do in the outer, inwardly you are unlikely to hold grudge and blame because you understand the dream proceeds as it must.
That is the mantra: “THE DREAM PROCEEDS AS IT MUST”.
Remember this throughout the day.
Freedom is in having no choice, no other way for This to be. It plays out the way it must. It can only be the way it is.
Paradoxically, when you do this, things begin to transform! And that's because when you know yourself as the Absolute, the beLIEfs you had about yourself as an inadequate or deficient 'self' begin to drop away. And so, all changes for the best by simply coming Home to your Self - and not by trying to rearrange a 'self' that doesn't exist.
REMEMBER!
Everything good turns bad, everything beautiful turns ugly
And back again. And again. And again. That's the way duality must roll.
You're having a wonderful blissful nap and then the neighbor screams and wakes you up. You're seeing a beautiful view and having a peaceful moment and then some disturbance arises. You're having a wonderful day with your partner and at the end of the day some strange disagreement arises that dampens the wonderful atmosphere.
Be aware in your daily living of how the light MUST be followed by the dark.
Why is this important?
I'm not trying to just rain on your parade... The point is that when you see that the dark is within the light, you don't attach to the light. The yin/yang symbol has the dark dot in the white and the white dot in the dark. Don't be attached to a beautiful experience because it is guaranteed to be followed by or dampened by something ugly. Don't be fooled by this play of consciousness. It is ALWAYS duality.
It is ALWAYS duality.
It is ALWAYS duality.
Never can you keep just the light, the beautiful, the pleasant, the sweet.
So don't be fooled.
But also, don't worry, because all that can be gained or lost is made of The One no-thing that can't be gained or lost. Everything is EMPTY, EMPTY, EMPTY of independent existence; YOU are all there is here.
