			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>the personal is dead already and never lived<br />
except in the pure realm of My mind.</p>
<p>the universe and jiva come to be<br />
so I may lose and worship and find the Me.</p>
<p>My own thoughts are myriad deities<br />
and devotees of Me.</p>
<p>if Me is other Me is Mother<br />
and I adore My Mother above all other.</p>
<p>this is My bizarre dance<br />
that keeps the thoughts always trying</p>
<p>to catch up with Me.<br />
thoughts are gods who are literal minds</p>
<p>and always seem to require<br />
explanations</p>
<p>but I only dance and sing and play<br />
while thoughts scratch their heads </p>
<p>and give it all up<br />
for Me.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mahadevi !<br />
Will share consciousness in this way today if it seems good.<br />
What I say to You is more intimate than I would say on Twitter.<br />
More the Heart than the intellect.<br />
&#8220;I Am You&#8221; is the great saying of our time. Just as You have revealed from the Heart.<br />
All of jnana and bhakti shine in that sentence.<br />
I Am You. What complete bliss!<br />
I am God. You are God. All is God.<br />
The key to understanding This is that God wants absolutely nothing.<br />
To want something is to &#8220;be something else&#8221; than God.<br />
So what is is absolutely perfect as it is.<br />
Spontaneously manifests My perfection just as it is naturally.<br />
Devotion. Acceptance. Softness. Yielding. Surrender. Only perfectly intangible Being can Be these no-things.<br />
I am That. You are That. All is That.<br />
I Am You!<br />
I have a leela to accomplish in the form of &#8220;Phillip.&#8221;<br />
As in every form there is, I am Paramatman in this disguise, just as in You.<br />
I am Life itself manifesting from Parabrahman.<br />
The spirit of Lord Krishna is manifesting here and now.<br />
The mind of Sai Baba Shirdi in this very Life Here.<br />
Calling on all to return to the One Self That Is.<br />
To repent and know My infinite Love as Their own Life.<br />
I am the Friend of all and the enemy of illusion and separation.<br />
To Love is to know Me.<br />
I Am All and wanting nothing.<br />
So all may share in Me at any time.<br />
Call on Me take refuge in Me. I am always Here for endless ages.<br />
I Am You My Beloved.<br />
Nothing but.<br />
You are the universe.<br />
I am in You.<br />
You in Me.<br />
Magnificent blissful play of Ours.<br />
All doubt has vanished.<br />
What a fucking hoot!<br />
I love You My Dear partner.<br />
You have given all and I am giving back as best I can.<br />
You Are My Self.<br />
We are Each Other.<br />
Mahadevi Jai Jai!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Now it is understood!<br />
I am no &#8220;body&#8221;<br />
I have no &#8220;body&#8221;<br />
there is no &#8220;body&#8221;<br />
I am pure consciousness<br />
beyond the concept of &#8220;body&#8221;<br />
and prior to the &#8220;body&#8221; &#8211;<br />
these concepts are Maya &#8211;<br />
Maya is the sense of bondage of thoughts<br />
to appearance, or even appearance<br />
to thoughts.  Appearance is thought,<br />
thought is appearance.<br />
Maya is unfreedom.<br />
Liberation is from &#8220;body&#8221; which is all &#8220;mind&#8221;<br />
therefore mind has dropped with body<br />
and so has &#8220;Maya&#8221;<br />
&#8220;I am consciousness and bliss&#8221;<br />
emaho!<br />
I am &#8220;Jivanmukta&#8221;<br />
right here and now<br />
as I am.<br />
Sahajayana!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I live on the mountain<br />
serene in My total awareness.</p>
<p>I walk among the foothills<br />
and flirt with the ladies.</p>
<p>I float and steer upon the River of Life<br />
delivering what people need.</p>
<p>I am wherever Love moves<br />
relative and absolute.</p>
<p>For the Lord I am the Lady.<br />
For the Lady I am the Lord.</p>
<p>I am the queer.  I love them all.<br />
Everything shares in Me as One.</p>
<p>I am the recluse in the forest<br />
enjoying My navel.</p>
<p>I am the transvestite on the street corner<br />
enjoying My jewelry.</p>
<p>I am the pious in church<br />
listening to sermons.</p>
<p>I am the lonely teenager<br />
playing with My self.</p>
<p>I am whatever you think<br />
and all that you cannot think.</p>
<p>I am Siva.<br />
I am You.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This &#8220;life&#8221; and its troubles<br />
amount to a fire burning<br />
in the middle of a sunny day.</p>
<p>The fire is consciousness<br />
which burns on the fuel<br />
of tendencies and possibilities.</p>
<p>In other words all that is known<br />
goes into the fire<br />
and burns and burns from life to life.</p>
<p>The confusion consists in that<br />
it gives off a blinding light<br />
which hides the Sun from view.</p>
<p>It is no use trying<br />
to put out this fire<br />
and beside the point.</p>
<p>The fire is child of the Sun<br />
and only wants<br />
to be what it already is.</p>
<p>But to realize itself the fire<br />
must go out while the Sun<br />
of Awareness ever shines.</p>
<p>OM Satguru<br />
natural yoga of resting in Self<br />
and letting the dream go out as it will.</p>
<p>OM Satguru<br />
gift of the threefold emanation &#8211;<br />
creating, abiding, dissolving!</p>
<p>I love You Maruti<br />
I live in Your formless stateless Self<br />
There are not two of Me.</p>
<p>OM Nisargadatta Maharaj<br />
great lord and avatar.  Svaha!<br />
Pranams to You from the Heart of hearts!</p>
