Awareness is creation

“In total attention there is creation, which is not to be expressed in words, symbols or ideas. It is total energy. How can I express that total energy, that extraordinary thing called creation? If you don’t like that word ‘creation’, give it any other name. How can one give expression to that? One feels that there is such thing, perhaps, this extraordinary thing called creation – not the thing created but the sense of immensity, the sense of timelessness. If you do express it, how can you express the immeasurable in words? When it is expressed, it is not the thing. What value has expression in relation to that? What is the significance, importance, meaning in expression to someone who has understood this total attention? Then has expression any meaning? Then will such a person go out and look at things: museums, concerts? When you have drunk at the fountain, what need for more?” * JK

~ Total attention is awareness – aka, creation. Awareness is simply that active, non-personal, ultimate alertness that is constantly aware (awake). One cannot really ‘know’ or ‘experience’ it if one is looking for it as something other – that’s a separation, a duality. In fact, only awareness is aware, with AND without an object in it. Awareness is; it’s timeless, and we are it. It’s never personal, never limited to the sensual, emotional, or mental, although it fully INCLUDES all that but is not attached. Awareness is not a passing state; it’s that Infinity which is watching all passing finite states. It can’t be talked about and ‘understood’ by the human mind; it is. All words about it cloud direct perception of facts. The word ‘glass’ does not, in fact, hold water, yes.
In ‘waking up’, awareness seemingly dawns; in fact, it presents itself to itself only, as obviously that immeasurable infinity – that creation – one is.
