The Way of the Decapitated

Adventures in non-duality | ‘What never lived can never die.’

[The Way of the Decapitated @DecapitatedWay]

You’ll never truly understand non-duality—it reveals itself only in your absence.

Seeing does not see itself at all. How can something that cannot see itself see another?

"What is good? What is bad? From where can you define them and demark them as separate? They are always one."

“When you lose your head, come immediately to me. When you begin to feel there is no head, do not be afraid; come immediately to me. This is the right moment. Now something can be taught to you.”

With a head, no teaching is possible. The head always comes in between.

This account has nothing to do with the vague concept of 'spirituality'. It has nothing to do with religion either. It simply attempts to describe reality. It will fail, like any other description of what is normally termed non-duality, but it's an approximation 🫥⚫️

@BradWarner Yeah, that’s the most basic delusion.

[The Way of the Decapitated @DecapitatedWay]

There's no secret. This is stupidly simple. There are no complex stories or practices. Why? Because there's no one reading stories or practising anything. There's just this. Simple, yet astonishing.

There are no pronouns in absolute totality ⚫️

[The Way of the Decapitated @DecapitatedWay]

@BradWarner Correct. There's nobody choosing sides anyway. Phenomena arise and you go with the flow

[The Way of the Decapitated @DecapitatedWay]

There is no one reading this post. It’s just arising—together with the appearance of a mobile phone or a computer. You don’t have any control.

[The Way of the Decapitated @DecapitatedWay]

Indeed. It is what it is.

[Brad Warner @BradWarner]

You cannot control it. You cannot make it work for you.

[The Way of the Decapitated @DecapitatedWay]

Life is just phenomena arising. It’s completely impersonal.

[The Way of the Decapitated @DecapitatedWay]

Discovering that there is no choice and no separation is an incredible relief. All your past actions have never truly yielded any outcomes because, in reality, you’ve never taken any actions. No one has genuinely acted, despite the appearance of actions having been performed.

[The Way of the Decapitated @DecapitatedWay]

There has never been anyone inadequate, so no one has ever needed to follow a spiritual path to achieve anything.

[The Way of the Decapitated @DecapitatedWay]

Life is meaningless, but that’s what makes it so joyful.

[The Way of the Decapitated @DecapitatedWay]

The world arises without your control.

Take it easy.
