Path<\/h1>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0Being \u201con the path\u201d is a common phrase, but what is the actual \u201cpath\u201d? \u00a0It is a fairly simple procedure<\/em> that can include many complexities, such as trying to remove hindering factors that could obscure the possibility of recognizing our Being in the fullness of truth and clarity. \u00a0The truth of what we are, each individually as well as collectively, is our treasure of which there is nothing more precious. \u00a0The \u201cpath\u201d is the how<\/em> of the rediscovery of that treasure, and what we require, our only real need in order to attain the goal, is something that can never be acquired \u2013 because we already have it, already are it. \u00a0 \u00a0 All we ever needed is our own immediately present awareness. To look for the path anywhere else than our own consciousness would be folly. \u00a0 Our pure consciousness is unconditioned and without any inherent error in it; errors arise in the conditioned mind due to ignorance. Everyone\u2019s real and true identity is this lucidly clear and knowing awareness and there is no other \u201cpath\u201d than this. \u00a0 The \u201chow\u201d is the simple recognition (or re-cognition) of this and never forgetting it.<\/h2>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 There may be many different ways to \u201cachieve\u201d what is called enlightenment, hence so many different approaches or \u201cpaths\u201d. \u00a0 \u00a0But near the end of the so-called \u201cpath\u201d one inevitably comes to the realization that all \u201cpaths\u201d are simply aspects of the one real great path. \u00a0 As there are many differentiated elements of the \u201cpath\u201d so then there have evolved many coinciding formulas for reaching the understanding which is needed to proceed to the next \u201cstage\u201d along the \u201cpath\u201d. Primarily, in the upper extremities of the approaches to the \u201cgoal\u201d one discovers there are basically two ways to find the \u201cend\u201d of the \u201cpath\u201d. \u00a0 The first way is to introspect deeply into the functions and content of the mind. \u00a0 Finding there the many dysfunctions and obstructions to clear thinking and clear recognition one decides to develop ratiocinative abilities in order to determine the correct next \u201cstage\u201d of the \u201cpath\u201d. \u00a0 This probably also includes the replacement of unskillful mental qualities with skillful qualities, which takes much introspective effort. \u00a0The second way involves a format of analytical thought and meditation whereby one eventually realizes a more obvious \u201cway\u201d or \u201cpath\u201d, which is to learn how to detach from the error of motivation for transformation of the sentient vehicles, including senses, body and mind, through \u201cpaths\u201d or practices, and instead, at a higher level, re-seat oneself in the original primal Gnosis itself, transcending all motivation to seek by means of a \u201cpath\u201d that supposedly goes from dualistic \u201chere\u201d to \u201cthere\u201d, and just relying upon the understanding and realizing of one\u2019s essential Gnosis, beyond all pseudo-identity which generates such motivations, and just remaining in the spontaneous apperceptive \u201cseeing\u201d of all there is as-it-really-is.<\/h2>\n
