The Direct Path Of Awakening - Shannon's Journey

It is the greatest pleasure & joy to join & stand with sincere aspirants walking the single (one-way) 'straight & narrow' home to True Self: aka Awake In & As Truthful Being - Whole, Complete, Perfect Eternally...

FAR more fall away than persist in The Absolute, more satisfied to defend a dream-state than Be Self-Revealed As Heaven & naturally reap the "Riches of the Kingdom of Heaven" in Absolute Oneness 'embodied'. Being Truth is not just knowing about Truth (but remaining identified as imaginary mortal) it is the end of all problems, the heralding of the New Dawn IN Infinite Eternal Grace & Glory. As the old saying goes, 'few there be', but it needn't be that way. Anyone can, there is nothing special about Oneness, it is after all Reality, the ONLY Reality here & now most can't see but when you can you KNOW you 'have it all', The Holy Grail. Seeing through the illusion of duality is far simpler than you might imagine...

Those who DO walk all the way are called to give & share from Truth where there are no problems, simply Perfection to 'give'. We find most of our graduates want to remain immersed in OneLifeTruthLove & expand in the Higher Mysteries & 'mentor' those ready to transcend the illusion of separation & be restored As One (Oneness Consciousness), just like Shannon has...

In the following 'musings' by Shannon, open your heart in the Love of "Love" & you cannot fail to 'hear' the way you too can walk into unconditional & incomparable Peace-Joy-Happiness-Harmony & of course the permanency of Divine Abundance...

Being-ness

There comes a moment, the only time there is – now - where everything falls away—not from effort, action or decision, but through simple recognition. The structures you thought held meaning, the involvement you believed was necessary, the interference you mistook for service is all realised as impermanent - nothing at all, just like a shadow or the early morning mist.

I stand at this threshold, of not touching appearances, watching the dissolution of what I thought was my idea ‘work’ and seeing clearly that everyone and everything I believed I was required for is simultaneously not what I thought it was and better off without my ‘help’. Not as loss. Not as gain. Just the freedom to love and live as awareness.

The invitation is unmistakable: and I was already there before I thought took the invisible and only step. Leave all and step into what appeared as the unknown - in living the absolute message which is simply being real. Even calling it ‘work’ misses the mark entirely. It is the living recognition of reality as I now know it. Joining in remembering the truth that the heart already knows, to genuinely live as One in truth, loving love, and letting life.

Dissolving

As I look from Reality, from the position of Truth itself, the inquiries change. Or rather, inquiries as I knew them dissolve before they fully form. Seen though like the clouds that pass because the sole focus is the eternal light beyond.

Doubt thoughts can still arise. Questions become more obviously seen as the non-existent ego, duality—those familiar shadows that can seem so solid when you give belief to them. On this note thoughts like ‘surely I could work elsewhere doing something anonymous, where I won't interfere?!’ The mind searching for safety in smallness, in invisibility, in anything that doesn't require standing as what you actually are.

But these questions are the clouds. They arise from the temporary forgetting of the facts of Reality and disappear the instant reality is recognised. They appear as shadows where in truth only light exists. They speak in the language of separation and opposites, as if there is a "you" who could interfere or neglect, a "them" who could be harmed or helped, a choice between this path and that path.

They entertain an impossible situation, that reality is never in. Contemporary physics reveals something extraordinary about the nature of reality and demonstrates that multiple processes can exist simultaneously without a fixed sequence of cause and effect—a phenomenon researchers term "indefinite causal order." This challenges our fundamental assumptions about how reality operates.

The truth is of existence is real, it is constant, and indissoluble. The infinite and eternal 'I' that I am is already free Now. Not free tomorrow when conditions align. Not free after enough knowing about reality or clearing of doubt. Free already, right here and now in the same instant I recognise reality, the facts of life, that only the truth is true.

Recognition

This realisation is not intellectual knowledge. It is not a belief system to adopt or a philosophy to test. It is direct recognition, an ineffable deep inner knowing of what IS.

Only Love IS. There is only One. It is all good.

Where you stand as truth, the ground is solid, not as a concept but as living reality—there is no question of what to do or where to go. There is no ‘work’ separate from Life expressing itself - Self effulgence. There is only the ‘I’ of real identity, beholding reality, extending itself naturally, perfectly, without obstruction from a separate self that was never real to begin with.

The absolute message stands alone and is available to ALL. It doesn't need a messenger with credentials or preparation for worthiness. It speaks as and too itself through whatever form is available, as naturally as light shines through a clear window. I heard the truth through a mentor who was in a similar line of work that I had been in, though I see now it was always there awaiting ears to hear!

Here is the beautiful paradox: in recognising what and where Life exists, that I of my own self-do nothing, and the fact that the script is written – allows the attitude of ‘it is done’ to be tangibly known in experience. In seeing that personal involvement is not required, true service becomes possible. In accepting real identity, the infinite 'I' is free to shine unbridled.

There was also an opportunity here—to recollect the practical ways to live truthful Being, to know the Self, that never change.

Not rules. Not techniques. Not spiritual practices to perfect. But the simple, unchanging facts of Reality that is lived as daily life.

Take no thought. It is the truth that sets One Free.

This is not selfish, it is selfless. It is the recognition that Life is the entirety of Being, and that Being is eternally Perfect NOW. When you know this—really know it as living truth in experience rather than borrowed concept—taking thought becomes unnecessary. Perfect Intelligence acts in Perfect Intelligence. Omni-action is let, ‘I am’ like the ray of the Sun – never separate and fulfilled beyond expectation through the simple act of recognition. What needs to happen, happens. I don’t do it, nor is it what I think it is with my wonky and limited perception. What needs to be known, is known as One in all of consciousness.

Judge not by appearance. It is the truth that sets One Free.

The world of conditions, situations, histories—all imagination when you stand as Truth being Itself. Not that circumstances disappear, but that they're seen clearly for what they are: passing phenomena in the unchanging presence of awareness. When you judge not by appearance, you see through the mist to what is real and turn to recognition of perfection rather than react to illusion.

These are not ideals to strive toward. They are descriptions of how life is when lived from the position of Truth, as awareness itself. They are practical, immediate, available right here, right now.

Freedom

The real freedom is not in choosing the right path or making the right decision or finding the perfect way to serve without interfering. It is beyond personal thought, in knowing the literal nature that nothing needs to change, through the tangible experience of acceptance and the loving recognition of real identity. The real freedom is recognising you are not the limited, separate self-trying to figure all that out. You are all that is.

You are the awareness in which all experience appears. You are the unchanging presence, the infinite 'I' that cannot be diminished, cannot fail, cannot make a wrong move because it is not moving at all—it simply IS.

When you relax into what is true, all unfolds so perfectly you could never have anticipated it and it has nothing to do with what you think you see, and all to do with what you know you are. Not because you planned it or got out of the way enough, but because awareness matches experience. Reality is already perfect, already whole, already complete and there is no longer any interest in appearances or experience being a certain way in the knowing that cause and effect are one and the same.

What remains is what IS: Life expressed as omni activity, impersonal and immovable, eternal and infinite, perfect in every moment.

So what is this ‘work’ of sharing and joining in the absolute message?

It is Being. Simply Being what you are and letting that radiate naturally.

It is standing as the Light, not performing spirituality or accumulating understanding, but living from the recognition that only One IS.

In the joining together—not in any belief system or in following a personality, but in mining the depths of what is Real, to know the Self. In sharing the genuine love of knowing of what IS. In consistent, unflappable and conscious living as truthful being.

The sense that Self-realisation is the greatest service one can render the world come alive. Not your accomplishments. Not your perfect execution of spiritual principles. Not your ability to help or heal or save. Genuinely and immovably knowing what you are and living from that knowing.

When you know thyself, relaxed certainty is unprompted, natural, and normal. You don't take thought—there is nothing to figure out. You don't judge by appearance—you see what is real. You don't worry about problem solving—in recognising there is no separate self to do so.

The Joy

Here is what astonished me most in this recognition: the joyfulness.

Not happiness dependent on circumstances. Not satisfaction from doing it right. But the inherent joy of loving Love. Of standing in Reality and seeing it behold itself. Of recognising that the window of awareness may not always appear clear but the Light is always shining in the abundance knows no limits.

The awe of seeing that everything spirals from that centre—that there is nowhere else to go, nothing else to do, no other truth to find. What you seek, you are. The path you thought you are walking is a circle around the Self, the ‘I’ you've never left.

The gift is welcoming this moment exactly as it is, as though you chose it (since you did!) and knowing that what's in the way is the way. There really are no problems when you know what you are and stand in the light of truth. The real and only treasure of value is knowing what you are, and as you do you realise it is the same reality for One and ALL.

Welcome Home, Be-Loved!

To step into this ‘work’ of Being, letting go and letting good, that is not work in the way I understood the word is the greatest joy and privilege.

Not because I figured anything out or became worthy or finally got it right. But because it is only in leaving all that the personal identity entails, I get to hear and see what has always been true: I Am the very Truth I had been looking for. I Am, Now AS ALL IS.

The infinite and eternal 'I' that I am is already free in Reality. Not at a future point. Not after more clearing or learning. Now, in the very same instant I accept true identity.

And you—reading these words right now—you are the Self-same One appearing as the very awareness reading. The living reality of IS. Welcome home, Beloved, you never left.

Be still and know. Let Reality behold Itself through the One, Life, Truth, Love - 'I Am'.

It really is wonderful to live contemplating love, wondering how good life can get!
