There is nothing so intuitive and certain as one's existence. Even to doubt it, you must be present for the doubt. Therefore, your own being is beyond doubt. Start right there. The key is to have a clear sense of this being (your own existence) without identifying it with any concept. One thing you can verify immediately is that your being is not a concept. That is why this has nothing to do with concepts, teachings or doctrines, however glorious. At the level of being itself, there are no separate appearances. In other words, at the source itself, there is no "I" or "you", no "this" or "that". These are generated by the conceptual mind. There is no "my being" and "your being", just being itself. Keep in mind that "being" is only a pointer, so do not make too much of that word. Call it anything, but that refers to your own natural existence, which shines before, during and after any concept or experience. Nothing is being brought in at all. No special event, moment, or awakening is implied or necessary. We are simply having a straight look at something so present that we may have overlooked it, being more interested in other things.

  Most people worship the messenger, and in worshiping the messenger they miss the message.
~"Sailor" Bob Adamson
  There is a state beyond consciousness, which is not unconscious. It is pure awareness beyond the subject-object nexus.
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj


John Wheeler
In 2003, John heard the good news from  "Sailor" Bob Adamson, who pointed out our nature of non-conceptual being or awareness and the absence of the limited person we imagine ourselves to be. With this heart-to-heart sharing, the spiritual search resolved itself. John enjoys sharing the pointers with those who are interested in self-knowledge and the resolution of seeking, suffering and doubt. John lives in the San Francisco Bay Area, where he works as a technical writer at a company in Silicon Valley.
