Janet Schalk commented on Cullen Anderson's event Satsang with Bentinho
"All kidding aside, I am really looking forward to meeting you Bentinho. I have watched a few of your You Tube videos, and someone who gets that the All embraces All of itself equally, AND drops F-bombs, AND flips the "bird" during satsangs…"

Janet Schalk commented on Cullen Anderson's event Satsang with Bentinho
"Wow...I see Bentinho in the "might attend" category. Bentinho...please provide us with a cardboard cutout of yourself if you decide not to attend your own satsang. That will make it even easier for me to come up with unique, egocentric…"

Janet Schalk replied to Cullen Anderson's discussion Kindness is an inner desire that makes us want to do good things even if we do not get anything in return.
"Yes, because the distinction between the giver and the receiver has disappeared."

Seeking...

The rain, fervently seeking wetness, learned every rain dance in existence and danced for what seemed like an eternity. Finally, exhausted and confused, it surrendered all seeking and stopped dancing. Only then did it Realize it's intrinsic wetness.

Nobody "gets enlightened".

  Harry Jones is an actor, immersed in his role as the King. Stepping off the stage, he identifies himself as Harry Jones and onlookers cry out "The King is enlightened! He remembers who he is!"  The Source playfully Self-witnesses as a character named Joe Smith believing himself to be an "individual".  The Source playfully shifts to Self-witnessing as a character named Joe Smith who gets the joke and identifies himself as the Source. Onlookers cry out "Joe Smith is enlightened! he remembers…See More

"Janet, the cosmic joke is well articulated in your above posting, as well as in your eyes (in your photo). May we each learn to relax and allow the game to unfold and proceed according to its own sourcing, not from the manufactured sourcing of our…"

We are all characters on a game board called Planet Earth. The game board, all the characters, creatures, props, situations, and events are the Source in various clever disguises. The game is played exclusively by the Source, as the Source is All That Is. Most of the characters start out with amnesia about the true nature of "reality". The game is mastered when everything is automatically recognized as the Source (the Self). It is like being in a house of mirrors, liking some of what you see…See More

The Supreme Way...Huang Po

To awaken suddenly to the fact that your own mind is the Buddha, that there is nothing to be attained or a single action to be performed, that is the Supreme Way. Huang Po

A communication from Self to self...

For decades I have been gifted with beautiful communications. Here is one that may lift and inspire. "Beloved, be not distracted by the world, but rather remain steadfastly focused on Inner Light. Walk lightly on this Earth, relinquishing attachment to outcome, trusting in Divine Order and Perfection, and leaving only the imprint of Infinite Light in your path. You have never left Home, and we await your return to that knowing."
