Let us continue. Somewhere along the way, I also realized that after reaching a certain level of Self-Awareness, there comes a point where it becomes apparent that there is ultimately nothing that can be taught to others ‘as such.’ Rather, there are only realizations upon realizations that can bear fruit in a form of knowledge, which can be conveyed to others as information.

Based on that information, one can develop an intellectual understanding of the ideas and concepts. Thus, we can only share a representation of what we have experienced and realized within ourselves, and no matter how detailed our informational legacy may be, it is always up to each individual how they use what they have been given.

When I came to this profound realization, I also understood that everything is readily and plentifully available for everyone – equally, although it might not seem that way to some. This means that everything from the Secrets of the Universe to the Mysteries of Life is to be known, and to be understood quite easily through the Self-Realization process. I realized that to achieve this, all it takes is one’s own willingness to become aware of it all.

To become aware is to become free of self-imposed limitations; to become aware is to become aware of thoughts, emotions, feelings, physical sensations, behaviors, and speech; to become aware is to shed the layers of the human condition that blinds our perception of our Infinite Being.

To become aware is to awaken from the dream of life, which in turn means becoming aware; and being aware, each moment, of what we are doing as we are doing it, of what we are thinking as we are thinking it, and how we are feeling as we are feeling it. And so you see, the more we want to become aware – the more we become aware; and the more we become aware – the more our consciousness expands.

The process itself requires high amounts of perseverance and strength of will, including the willingness to surrender to the Greater Intelligence of Life – one’s Free Will must be aligned with the Divine Will. And hence it results in the lack of need to teach others how to become Self-Realized. You see, Self-Realization is, after all, something that one needs to do themselves – it is something that everyone must experience for themselves by realizing themselves.

There are no shortcuts – you see, it all boils down to Self-Mastery, and the pursuit of Self-Mastery requires dedication and effort, which are the first steps in mastering one’s life. Self-Realization is, after all, realizing one’s deepest desires and capacities, fulfilling the possibilities of one’s potential; and likewise is the case with its natural progression, Self-Actualization – utilizing one’s potential, expressing one’s creativity, quest for spiritual enlightenment, pursuit of knowledge, and desire to give to society.

This kind of process is something that cannot be taught ‘as such,’ because each individual is different in their own unique way. What can be done, though – is to show the way, and what can be done to ease this process, is the sharing of documented experiences and the valuable knowledge therein. These kinds of examples can encourage and help others in many unimaginable ways on their own unique paths toward Self-Mastery – through Self-Realization and Self-Actualization.

On that note, it is worth pointing out that the best teachers are those who show active example by walking their walk instead of just talking the talk. All that teachers can eventually do is to point the direction – after that, it’s purely up to the student whether to walk across the path that is shown; and yet, in all actuality, each and every one of us have to find our own ways and methods that work for us. In so doing, we eventually find our own unique way within ourselves – see?

We cannot teach people anything; we can only help them discover it within themselves. ~ Galileo Galilei

As a natural part of the process, I found myself reading and studying the best available books about the nature of reality, consciousness, awareness, mindfulness, philosophy, and psychology – just to find out and to realize that to a certain degree I already knew these universal truths; it was more about the remembrance and acknowledgement than anything else.

As I progressed on my chosen path, writing down realizations of various kinds – I understood that it was my task in this life to inspire others through writing; to help others become aware of their inner world; to help guide others back to their Inner Spirit, in hopes that they could discover and awaken the Living Awareness within.

It was one of the greatest and grandest moments of this journey to realize that I was created like this on purpose – God had created me the way I am, with all of my abilities, strengths and weaknesses, for a purpose. And so you see, through this inner journey, I saw how God really does have a plan for each of us.

In the midst of this process of discovery, there was a moment of clarity where all the pieces fell into place. It was as if deep down within my core, I recalled something profound – I was appointed this task and I was ready to take up the challenge, even if it would take me years to finish.

And so you see, many times on this path I found myself experiencing a feeling of déjà vu, or altervu – the deep inner feeling that I had experienced this before. This is to say that I had a strong feeling that I had lived before prior to this existence; and that I had already written this book in some shape of form in some previous existences, or quite possibly, in some alternate – parallel simultaneous existence.

As we examine this idea, it’s not far from what the ancient wisdom teachings throughout the world has known for thousands of years: Life being a continual expression of consciousness moving or transmigrating from one existence to the next, in which the circumstances into which a being is reborn are determined by the good or bad acts done by that being in previous existences.

In the Buddhist formulation of dependent origination (Interconnectedness of All Things), samskāras are described to be “mental constituents” that are transmitted from one life to the next; samskāras themselves are the result from ignorance of the truth (Dharma); the word samskāra means “that which has been put together,” and “that which puts together.” Taking the previous into consideration, the continual feelings of déjà vu and altervu – makes perfect sense.

Now when I come back to those books that I mentioned earlier*1 – it needs to be noted that somehow only the most relevant sources of information found their way into my hands, like D.T. Suzuki’s books on Zen. Another great example is Alan Watts’ book The Way of Zen, which had been waiting to be read for some time – even though it had found me quite mysteriously through the Phenomenon of Synchronicity, I had never opened the book until the summer of 2014.

From the very moment I opened the book, I felt a certain familiarity with Alan – a deeper level of connection that cannot be explained with mere words. This is to say that there was an impeccably strong aura surrounding him – alive and vibrant energy signature, not constrained by time or space; so familiar indeed, that later when I was listening to his audio lectures, I could sense his presence near me – as a teacher and a mentor (I’ve previously had similar experiences with the Sensei of Shambala*2).

*2 The Sensei of Shambala https://www.schambala.org/books.html are a set of books by Ukrainian Anastasia Novykh. which are based on the personal diary of a former high school senior girl, reflecting events of the years 1990-1991. She tells a story of an inner exploration that leads her to meeting with a most erudite man, a Martial-Arts Master and a very enigmatic person, Sensei of Shambala. His fascinating philosophy and the knowledge of the world and of humans, dynamic martial-arts, wordly wisdom, alternative medicine, ancient spiritual practices, human abilities phenomena and beyond. Most importantly, she finds answers to her principal inner questions and learns from the personal experience that humans are granted the most powerful creative force above – the power of belief and love.

That said, it is worth of mentioning that The Diamond Sutra and The Heart Sutra are among the best reads ever; to get a glimpse of these precious treasures, the following Red Pine’s explanation is quite fitting (translator and interpreter of Chinese texts, primarily Taoist and Buddhist, including poetry and sūtras).

Zen Buddhism is often said to be a practice of mind-to-mind transmission without reliance on texts. Buddhism has inspired some of the greatest philosophical writings of any religion, and two such works lie at the center of Zen:

The Heart Sutra, which monks recite all over the World, and The Diamond Sutra, said to contain answers to all questions of delusion and dualism. This is the Buddhist teaching on the perfection of wisdom and cuts through all obstacles on the path of practice.

The Diamond Sutra may look like a book, but it’s really the body of the Buddha. It’s also your body, my body, all possible bodies. But it’s a body with nothing inside and nothing outside. It doesn’t exist in space or time. Nor is it a construct of the mind. It’s no mind. And yet because it’s no mind, it has room for compassion.

In closing, as I walked the walk, I wrote down notes about the many insights, realizations, revelations, and epiphanies that I came across on my journey; and it just happened that Infinite Quantum Zen website was created as a result of that journey. In hindsight, it can be said that Infinite Living Intelligence within Living Life expressed itself through creative means – the end result is seen as a form of Infinite Quantum Zen.
