On The Paradise Within

One leg is wisdom, the other, love – in order to proceed along one’s path, the correct balance lies in Skillful Means. The harmonious advancement of the three terms (wisdom, love and Skillful Means) could be the Paradise within. Before speaking of love and Skillful Means, I will deal with the term Paradise, as love and Skillful Means are two complicated themes.

The value given to the word Paradise is the same as that of all words which, when listened to and reinterpreted by others, take on the meanings that the minds of listeners give to them.

The existence of two identical minds, with the same experiences, memories, cultural, social and religious backgrounds is impossible. This means that individual evolution in general renders the meanings of words so different that they became useless and illusory, because each individual gives words their own value, separate from any other interpretation.

Words seemingly communicate the flavors of things to us, but each individual remains with their own mind. We seem to speak of One God, but then … The value of life, but then….the best evolutionary possibility for humanity, but then...

Having said that, how can we describe Paradise with useless words? How, within ourselves, can we come to deserve it? (We will not even speak of an external Paradise, a reward that the Absolute will grant to those who desire it.)

Our inner being is both seizable and unseizable, we have a conscious and unconscious mind, which are intermingled, which at times can be examined. We have a conscious and lucid intellect, one which is even more lucid and intuitive (figure 1), which acts suddenly without warning (the light that identifies science in the darkness).

Now I will use another useless word, LOVE. Is anyone capable of giving it a value? And I will use other words: Skillful Means. Is anyone capable of giving them a value?

Those who will proceed towards the inner Paradise:

Those who fear neither death nor life;
Those who identify the joy of the inner path;
Those able to go beyond the discriminating mind;
Those who accept the various meanings and intentions of sentient beings;
Those who perceive the reality underlying the word wisdom;
Those who intuit the true values of the words “benevolence” and “compassion”;
Those who act with “benevolence” and “compassion,” and never with their opposites;
Those who regard emptiness in Its Absolute Value (Forthcoming Chapters);
Those who consider every event illusory, and which do not generate identities or Selves;
Those who consider emptiness form and form emptiness;
Those who do not desire, but proceed so as to achieve Absolute consciousness;
Those who speak of the Way, without seeking merits or attainments;
Those who conceive of birth as the Reality of causality;
Those who conceive of events as the Reality of Acasuality;
Those who intuit that the inconceivable inner harmony is conceivable;
Those who overcome all dichotomies and go beyond paradise and NON paradise;
Those who are perfectly aware of the Oneness of the Laws of the Universe;
Those who are determined to realize their knowledge;
Those who work together with others on that which has been said;
Those who understand the law of cause and effect and go to the Unifying Beyond.

This may not be the Paradise within, bit it certainly is a set of useless words. For that which has been said, it cannot be the Paradise within. Only by experiencing it can it be called the Paradise within.

The awareness of the Oneness of the Laws of the Universe modifies the meanings of words, because the connections in the mind increase. This helps the individual reach Absolute Consciousness, to therefore understand the Manifestation and perceive the Paradise within. This objective should not be aimed at – it lies in all directions. The error is to believe to have undertaken “the Path of Wisdom;” it means creating a “right path,” “a right way of being,” a “right self,” a “right I,” a “right mind,” - therefore, to add illusion to illusion.

These useless words having been said, you have added information to the Creation (you ARE the Creation) and the entire universe has received this information; an infinitesimal point of consciousness has moved, but Present in Thusness (the Absolute Knows!). So everything has changed! What objective? That is the reason another useless word.
