The Main Purpose of this Site
I am dedicating this site to my beautiful children, Sepideh and Bruce, who have brought so much joy and love into my life throughout. While providing you, my beloved children, with all the love and care of a loving mother, I genuinely felt that by developing and dedicating this site to you, I could help guide you on your quest for spiritual awakening and growth.
My primary objective in building this site was to capitalize on my own knowledge, experience and insights to help coach my children, as well as the visitors to the site, in their pursuit of the following paths:
1. Self discovery - to explore and experience our essence and true self which is our key purpose in life as part of the universe
2. Authentic Joy - to thoroughly and continuously experience peace, joy and harmony in our lives.
My proposed methodology in pursuing the above two discoveries is through Meditation (Moraghebeh in Farsi) and being continuously present here and now. While I do not advocate that my proposed method is the only way to get there, based on the enormous impact I have experienced in my own life while using such method, I would very much like to share it with all.
I should remind you that if you expect any tangible, self-serving advantages from your spiritual quest, you have completely missed the point. The discovery of the truth about yourself does not help you gain any higher status or power over others. What you gain from such pursuit is the ultimate truth about who you truly are and total freedom from falsehood.
It is critical for you to realize that it is not my intention to offer you a different model for reality on who you are, I am simply helping to discard all the falsehood you have gathered in your understanding of self and happiness.
While many people recognize the importance of self-discovery, finding true joy, and being at the present moment throughout their lives, the key question facing them is how to go about doing them. The answer to this key question is why I have prepared this site to show how it can be done. Thus, my primary objective in this effort is to teach you how to:
- Be here now
- Stop identifying yourselves with your minds, bodies and emotions.
- Discover who you truly are - your true nature
1- Self Discovery - To Discover "Who we truly are" our true self:
Through meditation and being at the present moment, we will soon discover that we are not our minds, emotions, bodies, history and events in our lives which are all temporary and not "eternal". What comes and goes in our lives is not it. The sole eternal dimension that we all have and share, is the inner dimension (nothingness or awareness, - Adaam or Lamakan in Farsi), which is always present, and does not change or die. Indeed, we are all sharing it (Collective Consciousness) and we are that awareness, that silent watcher.
That nothingness or awareness is a silent watcher who, at this very moment, is looking outside through our eyes at the universe without any judgment or criticism. It is a pure gentle, loving and kind being who is silently watching. That is what we truly are, our essence. Once we discover it, we are finally home. To truly feel and identify with that silent watcher, we need to be at the Present Moment, here and now. It is just that simple. Just be aware of the watcher inside you who is reading these very words here and now. This moment, right here and now is the gateway to infinity and divinity. When we accept the "is-ness" of this moment, there will be no "me", and therefore no suffering.
Present moment is holy. It is real. Be here and now, here and now, here and now...........
2- Authentic Joy - To find the authentic joy that we are looking for in life:
What we need to do to find the authentic joy within ourselves, is to continuously remember that silent watcher (awareness) and be aware it. Be aware of the awareness, that's all. Through unconditional joy, which is utterly independent from anything outside of ourselves, that authentic joy will come to the surface of our awareness and will stay with us all the time. That is our true essence and that is what we have been born with.
The authentic joy is our true nature and, desiring it is not wrong at all. What is wrong is to seek it outside of ourselves when it is inside of us all the time. I choose to call this state a "genuine success" in human life. To attain it, we took a journey inside ourselves and we discovered it there, which is the inner success.
The good news is that all of us are capable of discovering it on our own. It takes practice, awareness and patience.
Throughout this site, rather than relying on philosophy and knowledge of others, I have chosen to share discoveries based my own spiritual path, insights and personal experiences. I have attempted to cover all the topics as short and sweet as possible, and whenever a point is made, I have shifted to a different subject. I sincerely hope that it will be of value to those who visit it to discover their own truth and true joy, which is residing within them.
***Remember: Your personal knowledge of Truth is the only path to freedom. My Truth will be your jailer until you personally experience it yourself.***
Thanks and God bless!
