7 most powerful yet simple meditations

solo's picture



  1. Accepting and observing whatever is now.
  2. Self Inquiry - Observe your sense of "I", your many personalities, all these false "I"s you can observe as objects and therefore are not truly you, the observing subject. Make sure to observe these "I"s with no identification. Use the question "Who Am I?" but do not try to answer it intellectually, wait for the mental pointer to arise spontaneously from the question and direct you to a current sense of "I"


To know Being...

Omkaradatta's picture



To know being,

Be without knowing.

This world is common,

Accessible to all.

Give up everything.

Just be, without being this or that.

You can do this anytime you want.



Mean Dreams

Mean dreams
Of a sea of light
Glittering and glinting harshly
At the edge of my sight

I try to rise,
Only to find
I'm stuck here in a glinting place
Too much sun
On the sea of my Being.

Suntan oil,
Must needs be called for,
Or maybe
Just a swim in the sea.

Fishes nearby,
Too bright to swim
So they sink.

Poised on a diving board,
I plunge to the depths,
There to find the gloom I sought.

The depths of Being

Omkaradatta's picture



There is so much going on beneath the surface when beings are together, when life is with life. We believe words communicate, but really they communicate very little - it is all on the surface.



Dragonflies

I've been seeing a lot of dragonflies lately, walking around in the park and other areas nearby where I live.
