Namasté. “New Growth with Nikki Walton” is a beautiful podcast I feel blessed to have found. Knowing now that Nikki is just as wonderful in real life is an added blessing! This morning, I listened to her episode with the great Byron Katie (https://beherenownetwork.com/nikki-walton-new-growth-ep-5-the-four-questions-with-byron-katie/) and was reminded that what we believe to be true creates our entire experience. Zen masters point to being of no-mind to shatter the whole illusion and that, too, is explored in this episode. Namasté.

Asking “What is Zen?” is much the same as the masters who challenge us to ask, “Who Am I?” These questions are meant to dissolve the questioner. This talk is but an introduction, so I welcome you to join the “Introduction to Zen” event being held this Sunday, 17 Jan by registering at zen.Eventbrite.com to explore together. // Recording note: Very strong winds in Cabo Verde presently.

After reading a note in a Zen text that masters were asked to write a verse after their awakening, I was inspired on my morning walk yesterday to rise to this challenge. The verse that I created was as follows, “Drop everything. Even you.” Then I added, “Bonus: What remains?” Noticing now this was a 7 word verse and feeling the smile! :) In this episode, I explore what I meant by these words and how you might use this pointing to discover what is timeless present...your Unborn nature as Presence itself! I will look forward to seeing you and sharing more about this in upcoming Instantly Zen sessions. Please subscribe at instantlyzen.com to be notified of the next events. Thank you.

Zen is the path of direct transmission of the truth of our true nature. In addition to direct transmission from masters, the method of sparking this realization has ranged from a flower to a koan to a haiku. The inspiration to create “Instantly Zen” events and sessions was based upon the power of personal experience. In this episode, I share samples from three books, “The Zen Teaching of Bodhidharma,” Translated by Red Pine; “The Transparency of Things” by Rupert Spira; and my own book, “HAIKU to be free,” which is available for free when you subscribe at zentaobooks.com or instantlyzen.com at the bottom of any page. Through this brief exploration, I hope that you can see the common transmission of truth, and I look forward to creating future, “Introduction to Zen” sessions to explore this with you more completely. Please stay tuned at instantlyzen.com or Fb +IG: Instantly Zen.

We work with what we can. Thank you for your understanding. Namasté. selenasage.com

My sincere thanks for your continued support of this podcast! There was uncertainty as to how to close out Season 3, but after deciding to disable my social media for a while, I didn’t want to leave without a trace! // in this episode, I share wisdom from “Writing on Water” by Sri Mooji, and I hope that you’ll take some time to contemplate your true Self and simply move as Awareness itself. This is the direct pointing from the masters. // I will use this podcast and my website, selenasage.com to share relevant updates going forward and you are welcome to connect with me via email at [email protected] Namasté and thank you, Selena Sage

This talk explores the profound pointings shared by God, Jesus, and Advaita Vedanta masters Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj and Sri Mooji. By exploring these pointings, we come to the essence of Consciousness and we can recognize that what we truly are as being aware of even that! // Recording note: I later learned that the knocking at my door was from a dear friend of mine looking for me haha Also, she called before I could finish the recording, so I created a closing clip to edit that out because I cannot imagine trying to re-record this episode haha It’s also fun to have this moment recorded to tease her with in the future haha ;) Hopefully the message is clear—You are THAT!

Inspired today to just breathe with you. The inspiration also arose to read a verse from the “Hua Hu Ching: The Unknown Teachings of Lao Tzu” by Brian Walker. The message, selected at random, could not have been more perfect, and I am thankful. Namasté. SelenaSage.com // email: [email protected] // Fb+IG: Selena Sage - Author

Sometimes, even I find myself getting caught up in the energy of my environment when giving these talks! This talk is encouragement to make quiet space daily for calm contemplation, and to choose your own adventure through the choice of identification. Namasté.
