When you observe yourself you must not condemn or approve what you see. If you tell a lie there is no need to judge your-self.
BARRY LONGWhen you observe yourself you must not condemn or approve what you see. If you tell a lie there is no need to judge your-self.
BARRY LONGWe can rarely see things from the point of view of another person because we look at the facts through the screen of an impression or an interest which distorts our view; and then there are accusations, quarrels and misunderstandin.
BARRY LONGTruth does not need argument, agreement, theories or beliefs. There is only one test for it and that is to ask yourself ‘Is the statement true or false in my experience?’
BARRY LONGTruth cannot be taught but it is quickly recognised by the person ready to discover it.
BARRY LONGBeauty is and always is. You are absent. Why are you absent? Again your robot mind is the problem. It will not stay still and you cannot make it stay still. It is your master and it separates you from beauty and God.
BARRY LONGLove is beyond description; but not beyond demonstrating. Love is beyond the mind because it is always new. Any product of the mind is a reaction of the past, a synthesis of what is old. So the mind is a modifier, a reactor; a renovator, but it cannot create the new.
BARRY LONGNothing is true in self-discovery unless it is true in your own experience. This is the only protection against the robot levels of the mind.
BARRY LONGThe only way we can ever get through to the truth is by finding out what we are not. We do that by looking, by observation.
BARRY LONGWE HAVE SEEN that hunger and breathing are desires of the body. There are other desires that are not of the body, but again man seldom pauses to observe these desires in himself.
BARRY LONGYou can only get next to God through the effort of preparation. To experience the uncreated, the state of awareness will have to be held for several minutes. You are then between time and the time-less – waiting for the unknown, which will come but cannot be willed.
BARRY LONGAll is energy and there is no energy higher than right love, which has no object.
BARRY LONGNo religion knows the truth. Only he or she who lives it knows.
BARRY LONGWhen the robot mind is mastered, undisciplined thinking ceases and is replaced by awareness. Awareness can know love.
BARRY LONGPornography is just ‘fast-food feminine energy’, it will always leave you wanting more, with little or no nutritional value. There is nothing ful-filling about pornography, it pales in insignificance to a fully embodied loving woman.
BARRY LONGThe whole purpose of existence is to bring love into existence where it is needed.
BARRY LONGAny product of the mind is a reaction of the past, a synthesis of what is old.
