• To “pray without ceasing” is to be aware of the miracle entailed in every moment of living.
  • make your life a prayer constant remembrance of God as background of all: IS-ness: Awareness: you are… God is Isness. All action, speech, thought done with Remembering of God is Prayer… Give God as much worship as the Ego.

The loving, adoring recollection of the Overself, the constant return to memory of it amid the world’s distractions, the reiteration of this divine thought as a permanent background to all other thinking, is itself a yoga path. Indeed it is the same as that taught by Saint Paul when he wrote, “Pray without ceasing” and “Bring every thought into captivity to Jesus Christ.“ 23.6.237

Until it is brought to his attention he may not know that the idol at whose feet he is continually worshipping is the ego. If he could give to God the same amount of remembrance that he gives to his ego, he could quite soon attain, and become established in, that enlightenment to which other men devote lifetimes of arduous effort. 8.4.153

It could well be said that the essence of the Short Path is remembering who he is, what he is, and then attending to this memory as often as possible. (P) 23.6.184

…   He has to learn the true meaning of “pray without ceasing” as well as to practise it. He has to meditate twenty times a day, even though each session will not be longer than a minute or two. He has to recollect himself, his essential divinity, a hundred times a day. All this calls for incessant work and determined effort, for the exercise of energy and zeal.   23.6.206

The Short Path offers the quickest way to the blessings of spiritual joy, truth, and strength.  For since these things are present in the Overself, and since the Overself is present in all of us, each of us may claim them as his own by the direct declaration of his true identity.  This simple act requires him to turn around, desert the dependence on personal self, and look to the original Source whence flows his real life and being, his true providence and happiness.  Disregarding all contrary ideas that the world outside thrusts upon him, disdaining the ego’s emotions and desires concerning them, he “prays without ceasing” to that Source.  That is, he keeps himself concentrated within upon it until he can feel its liberating qualities and expand in its sunny glories.   23.1.60

Every sentient being is AWARE.  We need to recognize that awareness… present moment of unmade wakefulness  Allow that to simply be as it is, let be in naturalness…

…The moment you remember to recognize, you see immediately how mind essence is.  … It does not make any difference if you recognize while you are standing or sitting or eating..  The practice, as I state over and over, is short moments repeated many times…   —Urgyen Tulku Rinipoche

I Am That .  let go, let be, just be

Q:  So far I have been following you.  Now what am I expected to do?

M:  There is nothing to do.  Just BE.  No climbing mountains and sitting in caves.  I do not even say: “be yourself,” since you do not know yourself.  Just be.

Q: I found my Sadhana very difficult.

M: Your Sadhana is to be.  The doing happens.  Just be watchful.  Where is the difficulty in remembering that you are?  You are all the time. ch51

There is nothing to seek and find, for there is nothing lost.  Relax and watch the “I am.”   Reality is just behind it.  Keep quiet, keep silent; it will emerge, or, rather, it will take you in.  Ch 99

Give your real being a chance to shape your life.  You will not regret. ch33…

M: Whatever you may have to do, watch your mind. Also you must have moments of complete inner peace and quiet, when your mind is absolutely still. If you miss it, you miss the entire thing. If you do not, the silence of the mind will dissolve and absorb all else

Yes

take aside at least 10 minutes every hour to say YES.  To what?  To myself, to me, to my glory.  Yes.  In those 10 minutes you will taste the love you are seeking.  Self-judgment is a bad habit.  No one has to earn respect.  Only have to remember who you are.  When you fall in love with yourself, then you will live with your heart open.  And there will not be one human being who you don’t love.  If you don’t love yourself, you have nothing to give.

Now: 

Become as constantly aware as you are able of your immediate circumstances – not of the surrounding environment, but of your own presence. No matter what is taking place, ask yourself, “Am I present?” And if not, bring yourself back with your next inhalation and simply Be in that particular moment in that particular place

Forbid your mind to leap ahead or call up history for explanation and purpose. The place of peace and freedom rests within you. It is inviting you in
