John Kremer

Bienvenidos al podcast Talking Diaries con el Dr. Louis Koster con John Kremer.

Me pareció interesante. Al día siguiente estabas escribiendo en tu diario y dijiste: "Cualquier experiencia de mí mismo, por muy convincente y deliciosa que sea, es muy egoísta y me hace tonto".

Tener una experiencia de mí mismo es el pecado original.

Y, sin embargo, muchos de nosotros diríamos oh, oh, no, si es convincente, eso me hace inteligente, pero realmente no lo hace porque todavía te obliga, oh, es tan profundo lo que acabas de decir, ya que es muy interesante tener una experiencia de mí mismo.

El Dr. Louis Koster

Es la máxima ilusión.

Es la configuración definitiva para que la mente prospere.

La verdad es que no puedo tener una experiencia de mí mismo.

Yo soy yo mismo.

En cualquier experiencia de mí mismo, hay un objeto de experiencia involucrado.

Me estoy experimentando a mí mismo.

Eso es una falacia.

Es una falsedad.

Y así, y ese es el mecanismo operativo de la mente, de la consciencia es eso, y en última instancia del lenguaje, es que te da, me da una experiencia de mí mismo, que es creada por la dualidad que el lenguaje crea, y por lo tanto, tener una experiencia de mí mismo, aunque sea deliciosa y asombrosa, y es la última inautenticidad, y en relación conmigo mismo, porque ese no soy yo, es un gran sentimiento, es maravilloso.

Es maravilloso ser apreciado o que la gente diga, oh, Louis, eres increíble, oh, tus Diarios Hablentes, oh, hombre, eres fantástico, ¿cómo se te ocurrió?, o lo que sea, así que ahora, pero eso no es mío, para tomar eso como oh, eso es tan maravilloso o anhelar, así es como me sabotearía fundamentalmente en relación conmigo mismo.

Ahora, no lo estoy haciendo mal ni nada por el estilo, pero estoy invitando a los que están escuchando aquí a que lo vean por lo que es.

Ahí es donde se encuentra la verdad de lo que está pasando, pero ahí es donde se encuentra la salvación, es ver las cosas por lo que son. Para verlo por lo que es. Y la verdad es que tal vez nunca lo hayas pensado, es que hay una falta de autenticidad en tener una experiencia de ti mismo y llamarlo o relacionarte con eso como eso que eres tú mismo.

Eso no es cierto,

Esto es parte de la dinámica de la mente, es que evoca un pensamiento o lo que yo llamo, algo está surgiendo en mi conciencia que crea una experiencia. Y en el momento en que me identifico con esa experiencia, me engancho a ella, entonces la tomo por realidad.

Lo que me hace tomar lo que experimento en mi conciencia por realidad o lo que tiene lo que surge en mi conciencia me hace tomar eso por realidad es el momento en que me identifico con ella. Literalmente, cuando me identifico con él.

Así es como la mente me mantiene enganchado en su dinámica. Pero no soy lo que experimento. Quiero decir, ¿cómo puedo ser lo que es solo momentáneo?

¿Cómo puedo ser eso que es momentáneo?

¡Piénsalo!

¡Eso es una locura!

La experiencia va y viene.

Solo está ahí para lo que durante uno o dos segundos o como milisegundos o lo que sea, por lo que es momentáneo.

Y entonces, ¿cómo puedo ser eso que es momentáneo?

Quiero decir que es absurdo y crea la ilusión de un yo que no es mi verdadero yo y esa ilusión está basada o está ubicada dentro de la dualidad, que es la magia del lenguaje.

Crea una dualidad de experiencia que luego da un sentido del yo que no es tu verdadero yo.

Y nos enganchamos a eso y luego decimos, bueno, ese soy yo, y eso luego se convierte en lo que luego nos involucramos en nuestra conciencia y comenzamos a ocupar nuestra conciencia, así que en el ser no hay experiencia de nosotros mismos, ¿alguna vez has notado que cuando estás ahí, estás ahí, no hay una experiencia de ti mismo?

No hay un yo que experimentar en el ser.

Simplemente eres.

Y entonces, bueno, ¿estoy diciendo que no disfrutes de la experiencia que tienes de ti mismo?

No, no estoy diciendo eso.

Lo que digo es que hay que ver qué es.

En el momento en que hago eso, puedo dejarlo ir y luego desaparece.

Y esa es su naturalidad, bueno, esa es su naturaleza que desaparezca.

Pero si me aferro a ella porque nunca la he examinado asumiendo que eso es lo que soy o lo que soy, entonces tengo que defenderla con todas sus implicaciones.

John Kremer

En el momento en que intentas defender algo, estás en el camino equivocado.

Dr. Louis Koster

Sí, pero eso es lo que tiene su atención y la cosa es y eso es lo que hace la mente, que es el trabajo de un mago.

Como dice, "mira mi mano, mira mi mano", mientras que en realidad la acción real está sucediendo en otro lugar.

Así que la mente te engaña para captar tu atención, como "¡Oh, mira aquí! ¡Este eres tú! Vive una experiencia de ti mismo".

"¡Eres tan increíble, eres tan hermosa!"

Bueno, lo que realmente está sucediendo es que ya no eres tú mismo. Ese es el costo y el costo es enorme, financieramente, en su negocio, en sus relaciones. en la aplicación de sí mismo. en aprender algo nuevo, en tu creatividad, en todo!

Porque la fuente de todo eso se encuentra en ser uno mismo. Ahí es donde estás abierto y disponible. Ahí es donde obtienes ideas que son creativas y tomas las acciones correctas.

Excerpt of the Podcast:

SPEAKER 1: John Kremer

Welcome to the Talking Diaries podcast featuring Dr Louis Koster with John Kremer.

I thought it was kind of interesting.

The next day you were writing in your diary and you said, any experience of myself, however compelling and delightful, is very selfish and makes me dumb.

Having an experience of myself is the original sin.

and yet many of us would say oh oh no if it's compelling that makes me intelligent but it really doesn't because it's still compelling you oh it's so profound what you just said um since it's so interesting having an experience of myself.

SPEAKER 2: Dr Louis Koster

is the ultimate illusion.

It is the ultimate setup for the mind to thrive.

The truth is I cannot have an experience of myself.

I am myself.

In any experience of myself, there is an object of experience involved.

I'm experiencing myself.

That is a fallacy.

It is an untruth.

And so and that is the operating mechanism of the mind of consciousness is that and ultimately of language is that it gives you it gives me an experience of myself which is created by the duality that language creates and so having an experience of myself although delightful and amazing and is the ultimate inauthenticity and in relationship to myself because that is not me it is a great feeling it is wonderful.

Like it is wonderful to be appreciated or for people to say oh Louis you're amazing oh you're Talking Diaries oh man you're that's fantastic how did you come up with it or oh or whatever it is so now but that's that's not me to take that in as oh that is so wonderful or to crave that is how I would fundamentally sabotage myself in relationship to myself.

Now, I'm not making it wrong or anything like it, but I am inviting who's listening here to see it for what it is.

That is where you find the truth of what's going on, but that is where you find salvation is to see things for what they are. To just see it for what it is. And the truth is you may have never thought about it, is that there is an inauthenticity in having an experience of yourself and call that or relate to that as that that is yourself.

That is not true

This is part of the dynamic of the mind is that it calls up a thought or what I call something is arising in my consciousness that creates an experience. And the moment I identify myself with that experience, I'm hooked into it I then take it for reality.

What has me take what I experience in my consciousness for reality or what has what arises in my consciousness has me take that for reality is the moment that I identify myself with it. Like literally when I identify myself with it.

That is how the mind keeps me hooked in its dynamic. But I’m not what I experience. I mean, how can I ever be what is only momentary. You got to to correct my english here “momentary.”

I'm going to practice that!

How can I ever be that which is momentary.

Just think about it!

That's insane!

Experience comes and goes.

It's only there for what for one or two seconds or like milliseconds or whatever it is so it is momentary.

And so how can I be that which is momentary?

I mean it is absurd and it creates the illusion of a self that is not my true self and that illusion is based or is located inside of duality which is the magic of language.

It creates a duality of experience that then gives a sense of self that is not your true self.

And we get hooked into that and then we say well that is me and that then becomes what we then engage with in our consciousness and and start to to occupy our consciousness so so in being there is no experience of ourselves have you ever noticed that when you're just there you're just there there's not an experience of yourself.

There is no self to experience in being.

You just are.

And so, well, am I saying don't enjoy the experience that you have of yourself?

No, I'm not saying that.

I'm saying to see what it is.

The moment that I do that, I can let go of it and then it disappears.

And that is its natural, well, that is its nature that it disappears.

But if I hang on to it because I've never examined that by the assumption that that's who or what I am, then I need to defend it with all of its implications.

SPEAKER 1: John Kremer

The moment you try defending anything, you're off on the wrong path.

SPEAKER 2: Dr Louis Koster

Yeah, but but then that is what has your attention and the thing is and that is what the mind does that is the work of a magician.

Like it says, “look at my hand, look at my hand.” while in fact the real action is happening somewhere else.

So the mind tricks you in capturing your attention, like "Oh look here! This is you! Have an experience of yourself.”

“You're so amazing, you're so beautiful!"

Well, what's actually happening is that you are no longer yourself. That is the cost and the cost is enormous, financially, in your business, in your relationships. in applying yourself. in learning something new, in your creativity, in everything!

Because the source of all of that is found in just being yourself. That's where you are open and available. That's where you get ideas that are creative and you take the right actions.

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“It's interesting you said in your diary when I let the arising of the thinking be and returned to a place of awareness I get answers to questions that are beyond the mind.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yeah”

“You are opening up to the mystery of life, to the wisdom of life to the all encompassing knowledge of being that is kept away from you because of this limited sense of reality that the mind creates.”

“So it is this new openness that makes available the knowledge that is not of the mind and that's where life becomes incredibly interesting.”

John Kremer:

“I think that's probably understating it!”

“Yes”

Extracto del podcast:

John Kremer:

“Sé que tienes la idea de que cuando permites la totalidad de lo que surge, ya no tienes nada que ocultar, nada de qué tener miedo, nada de qué fingir. Lo que queda es simplemente ser yo mismo.”

“Y la experiencia de paz que había olvidado. La paz de ser simplemente yo mismo. Realmente me gusta esa expresión.”

Louis Koster:

“Sí.”

“Escribí eso en el contexto cuando dijiste "cuando permites todo lo que surge en tu conciencia", llegas a un lugar donde realmente ves la inautenticidad de ello. Y cuando ves la inautenticidad, entonces realmente no hay nada de lo que necesites esconderte.”

“Porque incluso la mayor tontería que la mente te dice sobre ti mismo, o incluso sobre otros que pueden parecer horripilantes, o pueden parecer esto o aquello, sabiendo que es inauténtico, como que no es de tu propia creación, es una dinámica que surge, básicamente puedes encoger los hombros.”

“Es como, "Bueno, eso fue interesante". Así que no tienes que hacer nada al respecto. No tienes que manejarlo. No tienes que preocuparte, como "Oh, ¿soy juicioso?" o "No sabía que tenía estas consideraciones". No, todo eso es inexacto. No eres tú quien tiene esas consideraciones.”

“Eso es lo que la mente quiere capturarte y con lo que te identificas. Es una dinámica que es una máquina que funciona las 24 horas del día cuando no estás durmiendo. Y es una dinámica, cuyo diseño quiere hacerte perceptible y atraparte en una descripción que no eres tú.”

“Es una dinámica que quiere atraparte en un sentido de yo del cual podrías avergonzarte. Y luego te involucras con eso, lo cual solo te mantiene más atrapado en esa dinámica.”

“Al verlo por lo que es y ver la profunda inautenticidad de ello, simplemente puedes dejarlo ser. No tienes que lidiar con ello. No tienes que resolverlo. No tienes que trabajar en ello. No tienes que entenderlo.”

“Todo eso lo mantiene en su lugar y es parte de la trampa. Intentar salir de la trampa es parte de estar atrapado en la trampa de la mente.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“I know that there's the insight you had of when you allow for the totality of what arises, you now have nothing to hide from; nothing to be afraid of; nothing to pretend.”

“What remains is just being myself. And the experience of peace that I had forgotten.”

“The peace of just being myself. I really like that expression.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yes.”

“I wrote that in the context when you said "when you allow for whatever is coming up your consciousness," you come to a place of actually seeing the inauthenticity of it.”

“And when you see the inauthnticity, then there is truly nothing that you need to hide from.”

“Because even the biggest nonsense the mind tells you about yourself, or even others that may occur as horrific, or may occur as this or that, knowing that it is inauthentic, like it's not of your own making, it is a dynamic arising, you can basically shrug your shoulders. It's like, "Okay well that was interesting!"

“So, you don't have to do anything with it. Like, you don't have to handle it. You don't have to become worried, like "Oh am I judgmental?" or "I didn't know that I had these considerations."

“No, all of that is all inaccurate. It's not that "you" are having these considerations. That is what the mind wants to capture you inside of that you identify yourself with it.”

“It is a dynamic that is a machine going on 24 hours a day when you are not sleeping. And it is a dynamic, the design of which wants to make you perceivable, and capture you in a description that's not you.”

“It is a dynamic that wants to trap you in a sense of self that then you might get embarrassed about. And then you go in engagement with that which only keeps you more caught in that dynamic.”

“By seeing it for what it is and seeing the profound inauthenticity of it, you can just let it be. You don't have to deal with it. You don't have to solve it. You don't have to work it out. You don't have to understand it.”

“All of that keeps it in place and is part of the trap. Trying to get out of the trap is part of being in the trap of the mind.”

Extracto del podcast:

John Kremer:

“Dices que hay dos ideas que conducen a la liberación. La primera es reconocer que el sueño del pensamiento me define en una experiencia de mí mismo, y la segunda es darse cuenta de que lo que soy no es una experiencia y es incomprensible e indefinible?”

Louis Koster:

“Sí”

“Ves, todo eso se puede decir como acabas de hacerlo, pero solo tiene sentido en un lugar de examen. Podrías decir que lo que no se examina conduce a la esclavitud. Así que al darte la oportunidad de permitir y dejar ser lo que está surgiendo en tu conciencia, y puede ser cualquier cosa, si lo tomas como una práctica y eres constante en eso, y eso requiere valentía, en algún momento te dará la oportunidad de ver lo que no es verdad.”

“Ves que estos pensamientos surgen y te dicen todo tipo de cosas sobre ti. Y en lugar de decir "¡Oh, no me gusta eso!" y alejarte de eso o evitarlo... si lo dejas ser y obtienes la experiencia completa de ello... hay un despertar, por así decirlo, que te dice "bueno, esto no es lo que soy".

“Es cierto que todas esas cosas surgen, pero no es lo que soy. Luego hay un despertar a la absurdidad de todo eso. Cómo has vivido tu vida siendo informado por algo que no es de tu propia creación. Estas cosas surgen. Esa es una idea crucial que hace que te identifiques menos con eso. Y luego te plantea la pregunta, "entonces, ¿qué es lo real en mi vida?" "Si no es eso, ¿entonces qué?"

“Entonces, si eso no es la realidad... si eso no es verdad, ¿entonces qué es verdad? Solo eso abre la pregunta, "entonces, ¿qué es verdad?" Pero solo puedes ver la verdad o digamos que la verdad solo puede empezar a hablarte cuando primero estés claro sobre lo que no es verdad.”

“De lo contrario, no puedes escucharla. Estás demasiado involucrado. Tu atención está demasiado envuelta en lo que está frente a ti, o de lo que eres parte sin siquiera darte cuenta de que eres parte. Así es como experimentas la vida.”

“Pero no tiene que ser así.”

John Kremer:

“Cuando dices "eso no es verdad", es esencialmente lo que todos experimentamos todos los días. Sí. Lo que es verdad está más allá de esa experiencia.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Sí.”

“Pero solo puedes descubrirlo a través de tu propia experiencia. Que alguien te diga que eso no es verdad no va a hacer ninguna diferencia. Correcto. Si no lo experimentas tú mismo... si no pasas por el proceso... si no permites la totalidad de lo que surge, te quedas atrapado en el engaño de la memoria y lo que luego se desencadena en tu conciencia, luego te atrapa en una experiencia. Y eso es lo único que hay. Puedo darte un ejemplo que me vino mientras estabas hablando... es interesante.”

“Recuerdo de la escuela primaria.”

“Tenía tartamudez y regresé a casa llorando y mi madre me preguntó "¿por qué estás llorando?" y respondí que estaba en el salón de clases esperando mi turno para leer una tarea y los niños se rieron y dije que fue horrible. Estaba destrozado. Luego mi madre dijo "oh, no es verdad lo que los niños dicen de ti y eres un chico muy agradable"; o sabes, "eres una persona hermosa" o lo que sea que me dijo para alentarme a ver otra perspectiva.”

“Pero nada de eso hizo ninguna diferencia. Así que. es realmente a través de tu propia experiencia que puedes discernir en algún momento esa dinámica del pensamiento que es desencadenada por el discurso de alguien que tiende a atraparte, si lo dejas ser, y tienes una visión completa de ello, por así decirlo, puedes ver su falta de autenticidad.”

“Es algo que surge sin tu consentimiento y te dice todo tipo de cosas sobre ti. "¿Voy a tomar eso como real?" "¿Es eso verdad?" "¿Qué es esto?" No puedes negar que esta es una dinámica que tiene lugar, pero puedes cuestionar su validez o su verdad.”

“Nunca puedes deshacerte del proceso mental o no puedes deshacerte de esa dinámica, pero puedes verla tal como es y luego darte cuenta de que lo que te dice no es tu verdadero yo.”

“¡No lo es!”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“You say that the two insights that lead to liberation. One is to recognized that the dream of the thinking defines me in an experience of myself and two to realize that I am that what I am is not an experience and it's unperceivable and undefinable.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yes.”

“You see all of that can be said as what you just did, it only makes sense in a place of examination. So you could say that what what is unexamined leads to bondage.”

“So by giving yourself the opportunity to literally allow and let be whatever is arising your consciousness, and it can be like anything, if you take it on as a practice and you're consistent in that, and that takes courage, then at some point it will give you the opportunity to actually see what is not true.”

“Like you see these thoughts coming or arising and they tell you all kind of things about yourself. And rather than or instead, like "Oh I don't like that!" and move away from that or shy away from that... if you let that be and you're getting the full experience of it... there's an awakening so to speak that tells you, "well this is not what I am."

“It is true that all of that stuff comes up but it's not what I am. Then there's an awakening to basically the absurdity of it. Like how you've lived your life being informed by something that is not of your own making. These things, they come up.

“That is a crucial insight that has you less identify with it. And then it gives you the question, "then what is real about my life?" "If not that, then what?"

“So, if that is not reality.. if that is not true, then what is true? So only that opens up the question, "what then is true?" But you can only see the truth or let's say the truth can only start talking to you when you are first clear about what is not true. Otherwise you can't hear it. You're too much part of it. You're too much involved. Your attention is too much wrapped up in what is in front of you, or that you're part of that you're not even aware that you are a part of.”

“It's just the way it is. It's like how you experience life. But it doesn't have to be like that.”

John Kremer:

When you say "that is untrue," it's essentially what everybody experiences every day. Yes. What is true is beyond that experience.”

Louis Koster:

“Yes.”

“But you can only find it out through your own experience. Someone telling you that that's not true is not going to make any difference. Right. If you don't experience it yourself... if you don't go through the process... if you don't allow for the totality of what arises, you get stuck in the trick of memory and whatever then unfolds and unleashes in your consciousness, then grabs you in an experience.”

“And that's then the only thing that is there. I can give you an example that came to me while you were talking... it's interesting. I remember from primary school. I had a stutter and I came home crying and my mother asked me, "why are you crying?" and I responded that I was in the classroom waiting for my turn to read an assignment and the children laughed and I said it was horrible. I was distraught.”

“Then my mother said, "oh, it's not true what the children say about you and you are a really nice boy;" or you know, "you are a beautiful person." or whatever she said to encourage me to see another perspective.”

“But all that didn't make any difference. So. it is truly through your own experience that you can at some point discern whatever that dynamic of the thinking that is unleashed by someone's speech that tends to grab me, if I let it be, and I have the full look at it so to speak, I can see its inauthenticity.”

“It's something that comes up without your consent and tells you all kind of things about yourself. "I am going to take that for real?" "ls that true?" "What is this?" You can't deny that this is a dynamic that takes place, but you can' question the validity of it, or the truth of it.”

“You can never get rid of the mental process or you can't get rid of that dynamic, but you can see it for what it is and then realize that whatever it tells you is not your true self. It's not!

Extracto del podcast:

John Kremer:

“En tu diario de mayo dijiste que la experiencia de uno mismo nunca puede ser nuestro verdadero ser. Lo que soy va más allá de la descripción y es inaprensible.”

¿Qué quieres decir con eso?

Louis Koster:

“Bueno, primero que nada, lo que es no puede ser percibido. Verás, todas estas preguntas y cómo lo vemos, todo proviene de un lugar de dualidad. Sí, así es, hay un observador y lo observado. Dualidad. Y la naturaleza del ser es que es no-dual. Es lo que es.”

“Y en ese sentido, lo que es no puede ser percibido. No puede ser capturado dentro de la dualidad o dentro de la experiencia que la dualidad crea. Entonces, está más allá del lenguaje. Está más allá de la conciencia. Así que, hablando en términos simples, lo que soy está más allá de la conciencia.”

“Y eso es lo que resulta insatisfactorio para la mente, porque quiere definir, hacerlo concebible, perceptible, comprensible, y eso no es posible, por lo que lo que soy está más allá de la conciencia.”

“Y podrías decir que al saber lo que no eres, como todo lo que la mente te dice que eres, se crea un sentido de sí mismo que no es tu verdadero ser. En la medida en que sepas lo que no eres, entonces lo que eres solo puede ser.”

“Así que está más allá de la descripción. Más allá del entendimiento. Es lo que eres. Quiero decir, si piensas en "eres", y lo que oscurece ese conocimiento es todo lo que hemos inventado y que está inserto en el lenguaje que nos dice qué eres, qué soy, y eso no es tu verdadero yo o tu ser auténtico. Sin embargo, así es como vivimos nuestra vida.”

“Vivimos nuestra vida en respuesta, o más bien, en reacción muchas veces, a este sentido de sí mismo que la mente crea y luego tiene una naturaleza desplegable, a veces creciente, y eso no es vivir tu vida al máximo potencial, a lo que eres.”

“Así que esta conversación, por la gracia de que me hagas preguntas y de que me hayas leído los diarios, la posibilidad de ello, es discernir qué no es verdadero para que lo que es verdadero pueda mostrarse y pueda guiarte a ti y a mí en el camino de vivir una vida auténtica.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“In your May diary you said that the experience of myself can never be my true self. What I am is beyond description and it's unperceivable”

“What do you mean?”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Well, first off, what is cannot be perceived. You see, all these questions and and how we look at it, are all coming from a place of duality. yes so that is there is there's an observer and the observed.Duality. And the nature of being is that it is non-dual. It is what is.”

“And so in that sense what is cannot be perceived. It cannot be captured within duality or within the experience that duality creates. So, it is beyond language. It is beyond consciousness. So to speak what I am is beyond consciousness.”

“And that is where it is unsatisfying to the mind, because it wants to define, to make it conceivable, perceivable, comprehensible, and that is not possible and so what I am is beyond consciousness.”

“And you could say that in knowing what you're not, as in whatever the mind spits out that tells you that you are, it creates a sense of self that is not your true self. By the degree that you know what you are not, then what you are you can only be.”

“So it is beyond description. Beyond understanding. It is what you are. I mean if you think about.. "you are," and what obscures that knowing is everything that we have made up that is embedded in language that tells us what you are, - what I am, - and that's not your true or your authentic self. Yet, that's how we live our life.”

“We live our life in response, well actually in reaction quite often, to this sense of self that the mind creates and then that has an unfolding nature, an escalating nature at times and that's not living your life to your full potential, to what you are.”

“So this conversation by the grace of you asking me questions and you have me reading the diaries, the possibility of it, is to discern what is not true so that what is true can show itself and can lead you and me the way of living an authentic life.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“But then you wrote something which I found really interesting, "where there's nothing going on everything is going on."

“I thought I'd let you talk about that.”

Louis Koster:

“Yes, well I remember when I wrote that there was actually you won't believe it, I was looking at the tree outside where there were two birds and they were just kind of like as if they were each other's mirror like one moved and then the other moved and they were just sitting there on a tree. There was not a lot going on, but then I thought there's a lot going on.”

“And so anyway somehow that picture of two birds kind of having a slight movement looking at each other and I found that fascinating.”

John Kremer:

“And you did write about that in your diary as well that just looking at them, they seem to be chatting or going back and forth, and so it looked like a lot was going on. But you also wrote, what seems to be, does not last. They lived, they died. They are not present to previous generations having a similar chatter where there's nothing going on everything is going on. They just are and I found that that was interesting.

“You said the awareness of impermanency is proof that awareness itself is permanent.”

“Louis Koster:

Yes, so that actually was what inspired me to write that or what that came up for me and then I wrote it down. It looked so trivial these two birds and they may be gone tomorrow. Who knows and they would not have any memory of previous generations of birds that might have been standing on the same tree.”

“But what is permanent is the awareness of all of this that we bring to our conversations.”

Extracto del podcast:

John Kremer:

"Pero luego escribiste algo que me pareció realmente interesante, "donde no pasa nada, todo está pasando".

“Pensé que te dejaría hablar de eso.”

Louis Koster:

“Sí, bueno, recuerdo cuando escribí que en realidad no lo creerás, estaba mirando el árbol afuera donde había dos pájaros y eran como si fueran el espejo del otro, como si uno se moviera y luego el otro se moviera y estuvieran sentados allí en un árbol. No estaban pasando muchas cosas, pero luego pensé que estaban sucediendo muchas cosas. Simplemente lo son y me pareció interesante.”

John Kremer:

“Dijiste que la conciencia de la impermanencia es una prueba de que la conciencia misma es permanente.”

Louis Koster:

“Sí, así que eso fue lo que realmente me inspiró a escribir eso o lo que se me ocurrió y luego lo escribí. Parecía tan trivial que estas dos aves y pueden desaparecer mañana.”

“Quién sabe y no tendrían ningún recuerdo de generaciones anteriores de aves que podrían haber estado de pie en el mismo árbol.”

“Pero lo que es permanente es la conciencia de todo esto que traemos a nuestras conversaciones.”

“I thought there was a really interesting part right after you wrote that you said there are four stages of awareness.”

“You untangle yourself from the grip of the mind. You understand that the world as I know it is a projection of the mind. Reach within myself to connect to the limitlessness of being and organize my life around what nurtures and expands my awareness of being.”

John Kremer:

"De hecho, escribiste sobre eso y dijiste, la única manera de liberarme del pensamiento con todas sus manipulaciones e intrigas es llegar al ser que subyace al pensamiento permitiendo y dejando ser".

"Al llegar dentro de mí mismo y hacerme la pregunta de qué me limita a tener el sentido pleno e ilimitado de ser. Y sabes que eso es de lo que has estado hablando en nuestra discusión de hoy, es todo eso que tienes que preguntarte a ti mismo. En lugar de estar atrapado en el pensamiento".

Louis Koster:

"Sí, si me miro a mí mismo, he estado lidiando, digamos, con mis problemas, mis problemas, mis preocupaciones por lo que me fue dado en términos de conocimiento. Y lo que esto ofrece es que realmente miras lo que es verdad para ti en la forma en que haces la pregunta".

"Indagas en tu propia vida sobre lo que es realmente cierto para ti acerca de tu propia vida si te haces la pregunta, ¿qué es lo que me limita en el pleno sentido de ser yo mismo? Entonces comienzas un viaje de descubrimiento auténtico y el conocimiento que obtienes no te es dado".

"Se podría decir que es verdadero conocimiento".

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

You actually wrote that the longing to be boundless is the essence of being. In being boundless there's no object or experience that obscures my vision. The joy of being comes along with a limitless sense of life. I like that expression too.”

I've really enjoyed your February Diaries and I know the March and April ones are incredible but the February ones are also incredible. I can watch as you grow in awareness simply from how you express things even though you say that you know the words cannot capture your true being but I guess it can point.”

Louis Koster:

Yes, yes absolutely. Like that's how I see at least what is available to me now is in sharing myself and and in this unfolding dialogue that a person who's listening to this podcast that it might resonate and give just a little shift in the orientation of how to approach all the stuff that comes up your consciousness and so and and then that's interesting.”

“You could say that our consciousness is a dashboard of how how we manage our life but what this might offer is clear vision.”

“This is another way of approaching what arises in your consciousness to the point of moving away from that but just letting it be. Not invalidating it or not trying to get rid of it but seeing it for what it is and that opens up true vision of what your life is all about.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

All along you've been calling and asking people to investigate into their own life and you know get away from just the mind and so on.”

“You said, it is the power of investigation that has me in touch with my true being. It is the power of investigation that has me uncover what is in the way of being present to my true nature and you know that's just what you were talking about just now.”

“It's that whole idea that you can't solve it on the level of thinking of the mind, but it doesn't mean that you can't investigate. Ask that question what is in the way of being my true self.

Louis Koster:

Yes, so it is in the way that you ask the question and and how you set yourself up what you inquire into that the answer that you get is meaningful.”

“And in fact in asking the question, it has you expand in the awareness of being and none of that would become available when you are in dialogue with the mind, when you are challenging what the mind is telling you, or is imposing on you.”

“That's not what gives you an authentic sense of freedom and and the possibility of being yourself.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“Then you said something I thought that was really uh interesting. You said that inherent to pursuing things is an unfulfillment uh that there's an inherent sense of unfulfillment that's not resolved by getting what you want, but by stopping the pursuing.”

Louis Koster:

“Yeah, it's the complete illusion of the mind. It kind of enrolls you like a bad salesperson that you need to follow the shiny object so to speak and then there would be a sense of accomplishment or fulfillment.”

“Not realizing in the design of the mind that is that always converses inside of duality that it is the pursuit itself that gives the sense of dissatisfaction.”

“Have you notice that when you've got this drive to accomplish something - I'm not saying that accomplishing something is not good or that there's something wrong with that - that but I'm talking about this drive that something needs to happen, have you noticed that that when it happens that basically nothing happens, like you're not suddenly gained five pounds or are exploding in happiness.”

“That's that is not a human experience. “

John Kremer:

“So, it is in this deceptive nature of the mind that gives the idea that the pursuit would release you from a sense of dissatisfaction. Not recognizing that it is the pursuit itself, the idea of a pursuit that gives the sense of dissatisfaction.”

Louis Koster:

“Yes, you actually said there's no such thing as something lacking and that pursuing creates the illusion of unfulfillment. But unfulfillment is not real. It never existed. By allowing for what our experience is unfulfilled, I am touched by the fullness of being and the conflict resolves itself.”

John Kremer:

“And you've said over and over again in your diary, if you try to resolve things in the world of thinking of the mind, the problem will never go away. You actually end up creating more problems but by recognizing and then pursuing allowing for totality of what arises, the problems dissolve themselves on their own.

Louis Koster:

“Yes, what appeared, disappears and you realize that actually it never existed.”

“I mean that is a funny part of it.

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“You then asked a wonderful question which is "what is it that keeps me from having a limitless sense of self of life?" Inquiring into my own being and not looking out to fix anything or to make myself feel better, has me be in touch with my true being.”

“Again, that's part of the whole allowing for the totality of what arises.”

“You don't have to fix things. You don't have to make yourself feel better. You just have to be in touch with your true being.”

Louis Koster:

“Yeah! That is everything and what you just said what that points to, is to ask the question from a place of being, rather than from place of the thinking.”

“You can never resolve an issue like a spiritual issue, or like an esoteric issue inside of the thinking. It only gives you more of the problem that it sets you up with in the first place. And to turn to return to a place of reality, a place of what is real, the question that inquires into what is real, is the question when you ask it for from a place of being that inquires into being, you get a response so to speak, or then life speaks to you that is real and that makes sense and you're left with something that is authentic.

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

"I just wanted to comment, this is something not from your diaries, but I hope that your family and even the people you work with have noticed the changes you've been going through because there's a change in your complexion and your face and your expressions that if they're not noticing it, they got to wake up."

"Because I'm noticing it. I've noticed it over the past three or four months that we've been talking, that there is a dramatic change in just what I see on the screen there of you. I'm obviously not interacting with you in Australia."

Louis Koster:

“Yes, yes.”

John Kremer:

"But I do notice there's a significant change that's reflected in who you are and how you bear yourself and so on, that I hope that the people that you work with and your family are starting to notice."

Louis Koster:

"I don't know what to say, so yeah."

John Kremer:

"I didn't know if you would have something to say on that, but I just wanted you to know."

Louis Koster:

"Yes."

John Kremer:

"... that I noticed."

Louis Koster:

"Yeah. No, that's amazing that you say that, and thank you for actually saying that."

"So that is a great observation. Well, let's say that if I check in with myself, it's kind of the load of the mind. All the stuff that is telling you and this and that, and that eternal battle of what it presents me with in my life, being a father, being a husband, being a doctor, and some other accountabilities, to bring it back to a place of simplicity of the truth, of what is true is enormously rejuvenating to speak to your observation."

"So it wouldn't surprise me what you just said. Yes."

John Kremer:

"There's a great load that's lifted from someone when they're no longer burdened by the illusion of thinking or the duality that is a result of the illusion of thinking that leads you in the wrong direction, and suddenly you've wasted hours or minutes or whatever, days sometimes, following a thought that's not going to lead you to any kind of freedom or any kind of knowing who you really are."

Louis Koster:

"That is exactly. So now, I wrote something actually that was last week, so that is in my April diaries that you haven't read yet, of course."

"And that might point a little bit to what you were just saying. I mean, it's part of it is that I see, that I saw at that time, that I see that most of my problems are not real. They're not real."

"It's all a creation of the mind. It's all in the world of appearance."

"But truly to have that understanding, what it gives me is that I can let go of them. Just like that. Not by argument, by a persuasive argument or so, but to be absolutely clear, that they are a product of the mind. They are fictitious. They are not real problems."

"And so then actually, I can bring my attention to things that really matter. Well, there is a release of energy, so to speak, because that is what it does, is when you are engaged, when attention is caught up in something on an energetic level, that is consuming."

"So if that falls away, then there is a release of energy. There is, well, there is fertility, there is a liveness, there is a lightness of being. So that is probably what you're noticing."

John Kremer:

"It makes a really difference in your own life."

Louis Koster:

Yeah, yeah.

John Kremer:

"And you experiences as in a sense, true freedom."

Louis Koster:

"Yeah."

John Kremer:

"Because now you're able to actually look at things in a more real way and actually act from that level of who you are."

Louis Koster:

"Yes."

“You actually had a wonderful way of expressing that. You said, "When the illusion of being dissolves in the awareness, what remains is the magnificence of being. What remains is the dimensionless awesomeness of being where there's no object of experience and things just are."

Louis Koster:

“Yes.”

John Kremer:

“Those were your words and a wonderful expression.”

Louis Koster:

“Yep, yes. Well, thank you for sharing that, and that is a very... Well, it is like that and the gift to see through the appearing world or through the illusion of the thinking.”

“That is what we are talking about here. And it takes a lot of courage to bring yourself to a place of allowing for the totality of what arises and in terms of the thinking and the experiences that creates, but then there is a light that shows itself and that is the light of your own true being.”

“Well, that's everything. That is the start of a new life.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“You actually wrote there's no freedom to be in a sense of self that is imposed by the thinking, and you wrote, we try to get out of that thinking and separate Self by doing sports or having sex or being involved in addictions, but those are all really poor solutions because, again, they're all part of the mind and the thinking and being involved in all that and buying into that false sense of self.”

“You said that allowing and letting be ceases all frantic mental activities that are dealing with the sense of self that arises in the illusion of being. What remains is the illusion of being that dissipates when it is experienced exactly as it is.”

Louis Koster:

“Yes. Yes, absolutely. That is the key to freedom, to clear insight or insight into clarity.”

“That is what breaks the spell of the illusion, is to have the courage to allow for whatever is there that gives you that sense of self that is there immediately when you open up your eyes, so to speak, and that you wear as a straight jacket.”

“In the experience of it exactly as it is, interesting enough, it disappears. That is to say the appearing reality that gives you that sense of self no longer is, and in fact, you are restored to a place of undivided attention, and that is a place of being.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“I think that part of that is there's people that think, "Well, I can think myself into being." But the reality is you really can't think yourself into being.”

“The sense of self arises in the thinking is taken by most people as the ground of their being.”

“But then you say, every activity and their consciousness is dancing around and in the response to the overriding ever permeating sense of self that arises in the thinking, and that sets the mood for the day.”

Louis Koster:

“Yeah. Yes. That is a profound insight that you share, and that's also where the entrapment is. So, we are compelled by the mind to engage in this ongoing dialogue where there is a sense of Self that is forced upon us that we can agree with or disagree with, or we can reject or we can accept.”

“But that is what constitutes most of our response, in the thinking. And it's not grounded in reality. You are not responding to life. You are responding to the thinking.”

“And to recognize that most of our responses are a response to a sense of self that gets created or appears in our consciousness. But at least that would leave you speechless, and it would leave you with a question, what is my true self?”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“You actually said in your diary, there's a longing to be boundless. The awareness, what limits me to be boundless, makes me more present. I think that that's part of what you're saying, because you later say the thinking creates a sense of self in the illusion of being.”

“The moment there's a sense of self as part of the illusion, there is a response to the mind that creates a separate self. Then you said that the mental activities are responsible to that sense of self that arises into thinking. But in truth, I can't interact with being because I am being.”

Louis Koster:

Yes. Well, you bring a lot to the conversation, which is great. You could say that in our waking state, we have this sense of being, or this sense of self that is created by the thinking.”

“It gives a sense of self that actually, that is not real.”

“Yet, that's what we wake up with in the morning, and most of the thinking, the mental processes that we are engaged in, are like a response to that sense of self that arises in the thinking. Our response to the sense of self that appears in our consciousness is what gives this experience of a separate Self.”

“That's where the conflict is. That's where the duality of experience unfolds itself. That is what mostly occupies our day, how we go about life, and it is an illusion.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“You actually talked about that in your diary. You said, without fully realising, my question that morning was, "What is holding you back? What is limiting you? And what you were working on, you said, "is becoming aware of what is limiting me in my sense of being limitless." That guides me in my inquiry.”

“Apparently, the sense of being myself is found in the limitless. And then you said, "What an amazing discovery, being myself is being limitless." And then you did a big smiley face. I thought that was great. You said, "This longing to be limitless is being, being is limitless. To be is to be without limit."

Louis Koster:

“Yes. That's where you are, with yourself, that's where your spirit, your being is itself. So, if that is what you are, if that is natural, then why not ask the question from that place, rather than challenging what the thinking throws out, which gets you more of the thinking.”

“That is a very, very important insight: any engagement with the thinking has you being locked in that appearing reality, and there's no way out. There's no way out from within. And what this offers is an inquiry from the place that you want to come to is full expression. So, the inquiry itself is what leads you to a sense of freedom from a place of being, not from a place of the mind.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“I found this interesting. You actually talked about one of your experiences where you woke up at 2:30 in the morning and your mind was going, "Oh, this is too early to get up." But you got up anyway, but that feeling just kept with you when you were starting the day, and it seemed to colour your experience.”

“But then you realised "it's too early", it's just an idea, it's a belief. It's a fixed idea that is not necessarily true. Once you became aware of this fixed idea that was permeating your being at that time, it dissipated and I felt more present.”

Louis Koster:

“Yes.”

John Kremer:

“I think that for a lot of us, that same kind of thing happens where some experience we have sort of colours the next hour or two, or whatever it might be, and yet if you realise, as you said here... Well, it's just a belief. Just an idea. I don't have to hold onto it. Then you became aware, it dissipated, and you felt more pleasant, and I think that that's a tool that anyone can use.”

Louis Koster:

“Yes. What gave me the opening to go beyond that was not so much challenging that belief. I mean, there's a lot out there about challenging your beliefs. And so for me in that moment, it was that I was looking at... I was inquiring into my own sense of self, my sense of being, so to speak, where I felt limited in my sense of just being there. That was the moment where I recognised that it was a belief. And in that moment of recognition or awareness, it just dissipated.”

“It sounds or looks like a nuance or like a trivial distinction that I'm making here. But what I've discovered is that interacting with the mind to challenge whether it is true or not, only gives me more of the mind. It doesn't give me a clear pathway to a sense of freedom, or that I am free from what I was inquiring into that I felt limited by. So in that moment, I was not so much looking at the thinking, although I was aware of it.”

“But truly my question was, where am I limited in my sense of boundless? If I consider my true nature that's unlimited, that is boundless. What is it that gives me a sense of being constricted or defined?”

“That was the moment that I became aware of that belief. So it might sometimes be... Well. Let us call it useful, interesting, or purposeful to ask yourself the question, "Where am I limited in my sense of being myself? In my sense of in my being?" and then see what comes up for you inside of that question.”

“That is an investigation, and that will give you an answer, so to speak, that is truly speaking to your being. That is information that you can do something with, and it is generated from another place than the mind. It's coming from asking yourself a question, inquiring about your being, what serves you or what does not serve you. That is what I found very interesting and very contributing.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“You also said it's not about relinquishing control or allowing for change. It is about allowing for the thinking that wants to control that sets me free from it. You talk about it a lot in your diaries, the whole thing about allowing for the totality of what arises. It's not a matter of control. It's just a matter of allowing for the thinking that wants to control you that sets you free from that thinking.”

Louis Koster:

“Yes, exactly. It's very interesting, in what you just said, is you could say that the thinking creates an appearing world that wants to draw you in, in its... well, its dynamic. Not everything that it is telling you is true. In fact, probably everything that it is telling you is not your true reality.”

“When you allow for that without any engagement, and that is the magic of this inquiry, you really start to discover and see for yourself that it's just a thought. It is not your true reality. That makes it so compelling; is that the thinking creates a sense of what you are or a sense of self that is not real. It is an appearing reality. Most of our deliberations that we have with ourselves that takes place in our consciousness is all about or is a reaction to that sense of self that the thinking creates.”

“Just recognizing that... That already opens up... well, the sense of authenticity, that there is a light shining on your life that gives you a whole different perspective. In that moment, you start to see what is true and what is not true.”

“Well, for the time that we have on this planet, I think that is a worthwhile discovery and effort to make, to inquire what is actually true about your life rather than being thrown around and... well, let's say jerked around by our thoughts, never truly inquiring into what is the foundation of what I am responding to on an ongoing basis. That is the possibility of the conversation that we are having here right now.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

And you wrote, you said, "To be fully alive is to be in tune with what is real and true. To be fully alive is to be in tune with the unmanifested. Life is not about getting what I want. Life is about being in tune with what is real." I like that expression.”

Louis Koster:

“Great. Yes, yes. Well, you said it all. That's where it is the possibility of living an authentic life is it just be yourself, and there is nothing that needs to be added to... That's everything. To be in this place where you are yourself. There is no longing or no desire for something else. It is the thinking that creates the desire and the longing, which when you engage with it, only takes you away from your true being.”

John Kremer:

“You actually wrote about that, you said, "With giving up all attachments, I give up the illusion of control for what is happening in my life. With giving up the illusion of control, I surrender to being. In surrendering to being, I give up the separate self. I experience the peace of being myself."

Louis Koster:

“Yes.”

John Kremer:

“Again, I thought that was a wonderful expression. I know you want to say, "Wow, what a wonderful expression." But it is.”

Louis Koster:

“Yeah. Well, that is the gift of being, the gift of being yourself. Then there is nothing to say, and that is what makes it so difficult to bring it to communication, so to speak. Because this is beyond language. This is beyond description, and in this context, I can only point to what is worthwhile to have a look at in your life, as in to really inquire into what is real and what is not real, and it's only in that discovery that at some point you land in a place of authenticity that you might recognise as being yourself.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“You later wrote that with respect to whatever happens in my life, my commitment is to return to being myself rather than a state of reaction. So, you're still talking about acting on the basis of your being, rather than reacting to the thoughts that come up, that your mind generates that tries to trap you. The place that is beyond reaction is a place where there's no intent, no hope, or no desire. I thought that was interesting because no hope?”

Louis Koster:

“Yeah, that's great. In a place of being, there is just a sense of life, and there is no... Well, no hope, so to speak. That is to say that there is not a thinking that brings about a sense that something is lacking or that needs to be added to my life. In that place of being myself, there is a sense of togetherness that doesn't require anything else.”

“In that context, that is very interesting that there is no desire, there is no sense that something needs to happen. You could say there is no hope. There is not a longing for something else in that moment. What's there is peace. There's a sense of peace, and that's everything. There's a clarity that brings about thinking that is revealing or that is about discovery, and then the unfolding is created in the moment. So...”

John Kremer:

“I like it because you're basically saying, when the mind is in charge of everything, it's saying, "Oh, there's something new coming up. There's hope here. You just have to do this." What you're saying is, "No, that kind of hope is a false hope. It's not part of acting from the level of being."

Louis Koster:

“Yeah. With hope, there is a dissatisfaction, there is a restlessness, there is a longing for something else. Although the experience is real, it is deceptive. It's just a thought and, well, nothing else.

“It's not real.”

John Kremer:

“That's one thing about hope, desire, and thoughts like that is that they really are just thoughts and they don't really have the value of reality in terms of how you can change your life, how you can act from a level of freedom.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“I thought that there was a lot of stuff you did in February, and I know the March is even better, but I haven't seen it.”

Louis Koster:

“Oh, yeah. No, actually, April is amazing.”

John Kremer:

“March is so terrible. I think I'm just going to skip it. To be real in the moment is where I am myself and experience life fully. It is not just about having an experience. It is about taking action that is an expression of my being. That was your first entry for February, and I liked it because you're really talking about the difference between action based on stupid thoughts and action as an expression of your being. So, I'd love you to talk a little bit about that.”

Louis Koster:

“Yeah, that's really interesting. So, it's kind of like we wake up in the morning in this state that is created by the thinking, and it is like a waking state, a bit like a dream, and it grabs us. It wants us to engage with it, or it wants me to engage with it with whatever it brings about in my consciousness, and so I may then take action, but it doesn't feel right. It's like a reaction to the thinking. It doesn't come with a sense of fulfilment.”

“So in that light, I wrote that in my diary, is action that is, yeah, that is truly based on what feels right, that is in keeping with true sense of what I am. That's where I find fulfilment, and that is what makes it meaningful and purposeful and also sense that is a fulfilment of what I'm all about as in my intention, what life is all about for me, so yeah.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“And you say that knowing that I am my two self ends suffering and promises a new life. And that's what you were just talking about, is that when we get beyond that duality and beyond the illusion of thinking and thoughts and being what the thinking thinks we are, we get to the promise of a new life, which is actually living life as our true Self.”

Louis Koster:

“Yes, absolutely, yeah. That is a new life. That is a life full possibility, full of exploration and inquiry into what it is to be that, to be yourself, and that's everything.”

“That is what it is to be alive, is to have that expansion of awareness, this exploration of what it is to be you. And well, that is a new life, as in that is, that's not usually how we live our life. So in that sense, it is a new life. It's still the same life, but it is different, there is an awareness of how you live your life and insight in what you truly are.”

John Kremer:

“And that promise of a new life is not the promise of a future that our thought creates. It's simply that promise of a new life is just simply being independent of all that duality, and that's the process of a new life. It's not the future that the thinking creates. It's a new life that being creates.”

Louis Koster:

“Yep. It's very interesting, this notion of future, which actually in the domain of being so to speak, is actually potential. So a new life would be to live your life to your full potential, so that points to the future, so to speak. But it is like an unfolding, like a discovery, like an adventure.”

John Kremer:

“I like all three of those words unfolding, an adventure, and I forget what the third one was now.”

Louis Koster:

“Yeah, good. That's amazing. So thank you for bringing that to the conversation. It's really very inspiring.”

John Kremer:

“Again, it's all your words. I may give it a little bit different angle, I don't know. But I'm merely responding to your Talking Diaries, to the thought process of what you're doing, what you're thinking about, and how you're approaching seeing things and asking questions and all of that. And you're challenging all of us to do the same thing, because you're saying, "It's not something unique to me. It's something anyone can do simply by allowing for the fatality of what arises and asking questions."

Louis Koster:

“Yes.”

John Kremer:

“Anyway, I've really been enjoying going along with you on this adventure.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“At one point, right after that, you wrote in your diary, "I am becoming aware that I am this is the organising principle of my life. It determines my choices. It shapes my experiences. It sets my outlook on life." And then you hit the buzzer, you say, "My life is based on a big lie."

Louis Koster:

“Yup. Yes.”

John Kremer:

“And that's really true for all of us, not just for you. But you're becoming aware of it, which is what we have to do at some point, all of us, if we want to be truly free and get to know who we really are.”

Louis Koster:

“Yes, yes. So this statement, I am, it's not I am like I being, but I am something. I am this. I am that. That is a statement of duality. And I return to this, what we all know of ourselves, is that when you're truly being yourself, there's nothing to experience. You are just there. So to say it a little bit with more distinction, there is no object of experience. There's not something that you are experiencing. You are just there. There's just perceiving. There's no perceiver and there's no perceived, which is all conceptual.”

“So the hallmark of duality is I am, not standing on its own, but I am this or I am that. Fill in the blank, which is what constitutes the duality of experience. So to see it for what it is that is to say, to see the inauthenticity of that, not to disregard it, but to see it for what it is, which is what means to not identify with that as that that is what you are, but to see it for what it is.”

“It is something that appears in your consciousness, or in fact is brought about by language, by the grammar, or by the structure of language, which might actually create our consciousness or is the building block of our consciousness. And to just see it for what it is, set you free from it, from the tyranny of the mind. And lets you live the life that you are meant to be here on this incredible gift and privilege to be in this awaking state of what it is to be human. And live life fully, being true to yourself. That is what this is all about, this conversation's all about.”

John Kremer:

“Yeah. It's really what you're saying is that this isn't something strange or whatever. It's really just you coming into your own being and recognising what you truly are.”

Louis Koster:

“Yeah.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

You asked yourself a nice question right after that. You said, "When did I wake up to “I”? Asking myself this question, I feel like I'm waking up from an dream." Because once you no longer identify with the “I” of the duality of experience, then that “I” disappears.

Louis Koster:

Yes. This knowing or this awareness of being of my true self kept me or gave me the question then, "What is this “I” in the thinking and brought about in conversation, in interaction with other people? What is that?" Or, "How did that come about?" Once you start moving away from that that's who you are, it has got more the nature of an appearance.

It is an “I” that is appearing in consciousness, in my consciousness. So if it is an appearance in my consciousness, that gave me the question, "When was it actually that I woke up to this “I,” my true self, my being that's probably permanent? When did that wake up to this illusionary “I”? Then therefore, if it is an appearance in consciousness, then my true self was never born and will never die.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

You said an interesting thing. After the holidays, you've returned to your practise and you've began hearing the patients talk about all of the things they did over the holidays, who they saw, with whom they spoke, et cetera. But all those experiences are now gone. Of those experiences, then what seems to be the one constant is what we call, “I.” And then you ask, "But is it?" And I think what you say is that it's not really the “I” that's the experiencer that's having these experiences. It's simply the I that is aware that the experiences are occurring. Would that be a way of saying it or not?”

Louis Koster:

“Yeah, yeah. So in what you just read, I wrote that when I had the experience that when someone shares a story, of course, when you come back from holiday, it's like, "Oh, what did you do?" And then so a person shares their story of what they did, and what happened, and it all. So my observation was looking at how I experienced when they tell their story, the way often the story is told is as if it is an actual happening.”

“It's so real when they tell the story, but it's not, and the person who is telling the story is telling the story as if it is an actual reality, but it's whatever was there is no longer. So it just brought about my curiosity. What is it about us human beings, when we tell a story that makes it so real, while in fact it is just a memory that we bring to life in a conversation? And so the common denominator, so to speak, is the “I” in the story that we identify with. That is what gives it reality. That is what “I” was inquiring into. How real is this “I”?”

John Kremer:

“In your diary you said that the “I” is just imaginary, that in every experience there is duality, but experience is distinct from being. So I can see how you were taking that experience of hearing all these stories of the holidays and going, but all of that has no real relevance because it's all tangent and duality, and the “I” that they're talking about is not the “I” that you talk about when you talk about experiencing being.”

Louis Koster:

“Yes. So the moment that you identify yourself with the “I” in the story or the self that gets created in the thinking, and that becomes your reality. And not necessarily being aware that there is a bigger reality available, so to speak, that points to your true self, and the self in a story is made up. It is imaginary. It's not your true self. Although, some people might experience it as if it is. They're sharing themselves, but it's just a story.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“I think you have been fighting, you could say, that your mind gets captured by the duality of thinking that every arising of thinking is not reality, and you actually say it's not a mind-making. The thoughts, they just arise. I'm not quite sure how they arise, maybe you've identified that now, but you're assuming, you're saying that if they do arise, you got to allow for the totality of that arising.”

Louis Koster:

“Yeah, yeah. Yes, so I may not speak to all aspects of what you just said, but I think it's worthwhile that one of the things that you said, I think, is very much worthwhile speaking to, and that is if you just take a moment, and let's say you close your eyes or you just, what you call, you relax or something like that, you all let it be, so to speak. “

“What you become conscious of is that... well, there is merit in becoming aware of that which allows for the arising of the thinking. We have this relationship with the thinking like, "Oh well, there's a thought and let me evaluate whether it's true or not, or consider whether I will act on it or not." Have you ever thought where they come from, so to speak?”

“You base your whole life on the thinking, on what comes up in your consciousness, so if you take a moment to become aware of that which allows for the arising of the thinking, and what I mean with that... so in my diary I spelled "that" with a capital, because it's... “That” is beyond language, but “that” where there is no name for, which we can't describe inside of which the thinking arises, that is consciousness.”

“So when you become aware of that which allows for the thinking, you then become aware of being conscious, and when you are, you realise that you are therefore a hundred percent responsible for whatever experience the thinking might give you.”

“As well, it dispels the whole notion of an outside world, because it is the thinking that creates this idea that you are responding to something, while the something is part of the thinking. That is the duality of the thinking.”

John Kremer:

“In essence you're saying that all these thoughts that come up are in some sense of your making, but you don't have to interact with them. They're not the reality, they're just what arises.”

Louis Koster:

“They create an experience, yes.”

John Kremer:

“And it's not from the outside, so everything that thoughts have, the feelings, the emotions, all the... you got to do this and all that…”

...”they're all part of... you don't perceive them as coming from the outside, so you don't have to respond to them.”

Louis Koster:

“That's also true, yes. They arise in your consciousness, in my consciousness, and so that insight in itself will have you absolutely stop complaining. It will interrupt all... well, whatever you got. You might have gone round that the world is not behaving itself to your liking. That insight, there is no room for anything of that. You're completely... I'm completely responsible for any aspect of my experience because they are of my own making, all of it.”

John Kremer:

“But it's not an intentional making, it's just what arises.”

Louis Koster:

“Yeah, exactly. Now, what that stops is this interaction that we might have with people, with what the thought is pointing to, as the cause of our sense of dissatisfaction, et cetera, and when we do, you have more opportunity to just see it for what it is, because it is the engagement that keeps us blind. It obscures our vision to see it exactly for what it is. It's just a thought, nothing else. It's not reality.”

John Kremer:

“Does that mean there's no reality?”

Louis Koster:

“That's not what I said. It's just a thought.”

John Kremer:

“It's just a thought.”

Louis Koster:

“Yeah, it's not my true... and the experience that it creates, that's not my true reality, no. It's just a thought and it is an experience that it creates, that the thinking creates an experience of some sort, but it's not my true reality.”

John Kremer:

“The true reality is what happens once you get past that when you fall into being?”

“Or however you want to describe it.”

Louis Koster:

“Yes.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“A little later in your diary, you actually talk about... You ask yourself the question, how do I wrestle myself out of the grip of thinking? And you say, "There's something available in the process of letting be that lets me wrestle out of the thought and land in a place of being."

Louis Koster:

“Yes.”

John Kremer:

“And then you added a really nice sort of sentence. You said, "I am determined to identify this process." And I think at least at this point in your diary, you were still working on identifying that process.”

“Have you now identified it?”

Louis Koster:

“I think I've got more of an understanding of the dynamic of this process of allowing, or what arises in my consciousness, leading to a place where I have a sense that I am in touch with my true being, that where I can be myself. That is to say, I'm starting to see the paradox that the thinking is creating when I bring unassumed attention to the thinking.”

“I now see the paradox of it, at the same time the deceptive nature of the thinking that... So more or less, it tells me that something needs to be solved, or something needs to be given attention to; when it poses me with a problem or when it's just a compelling thought, or there's a thought that creates a sense of urgency, I'm talking about these kind of thoughts, often thoughts that we wake up with in the morning.”

“To realise that, in fact, my engagement to respond to the siren song of the mind, of the thinking, that that actually keeps me more stuck into it like it is actually... It's part of the entrapment of the mind. Where true salvation is found is in mustering the courage to just let it be, and to experience exactly what arises in the moment that it arises as it is, which then has attention that is divided by the arising of the thinking. Then return to a place where it is undivided. I'm just there, and I returned to a place of awareness of being, which is what this is all about. This conversation is all about, is how to be yourself.”

John Kremer:

“You have an interesting way of saying it. At one point in your diary, you say, "I am bringing the mind to the court of awareness."

Louis Koster:

“Yes.”

John Kremer:

“I'm exposing the mind to the light of awareness. I have been conned by the mind all of my life, treating what it dishes out in my consciousness as my reality. But now you're exposing the mind to the light of awareness, which I presume by that you're meaning the light of your true being.”

“I think it's kind of fun to think of it as you're bringing the mind to the court of awareness because it's sort of like you're going, "You've been a bad boy. I'm going to have you judged."

Louis Koster:

“Absolutely.”

John Kremer:

“But it's an academic judgement of what we think of as judgement.”

Louis Koster:

“Absolutely. There's a level of pissed-offness in me, like how... Well, actually, I’ve been conned by the mind. Wasted parts of my life being engaged in things that I thought... by lack of awareness, so to speak, that they were important, that I had to take action on. And the thinking at times can be very compelling. And so, to be able to see through that is, well, that is a gift. That is a gift of life. That is where there is the possibility of being yourself. That is what I'm speaking to here.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“There was an additional insight that you gave that I found really interesting. You said that beyond the division of the mind, there's a love that translates into action. Love is not appealing, love is being in action. And I thought that was, again, another great insight from you, that this love that you feel when you reach the level of just being who you are, that love translates into action.”

Louis Koster:

“Yes. And it's interesting in this journey of awareness, so to speak, that more and more I start to discern from a place of being. No longer from the place of the mind, so to speak. What I'm about to say is from a place of being that love is not a feeling.”

“Having had the direct experience, what I can report on a place of awareness, of being where there is love. Clearly, that has nothing to do with a feeling or with what we tend to call love, but which is a feeling. And it expresses an affinity towards something, but that has an object of experience that is not grounded in being. It's very personal, what we call love, but it might not necessarily be true love.”

“That is part of when there is the awareness of being. I'm not diminishing the love that a person might experience towards a person. But this is all about for me, is to find what is true and to see where I call something where maybe it's not because there's a bigger possibility available.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“You had an interesting way of saying that. You said there's no love in duality of experience. There's no being in duality of experience.”

Louis Koster:

“Yeah. Since the thinking creates the illusion of perception, I think that is a very profound insight. Since the thinking is geared towards, it creates the illusion of being. That is to say, when there's the thinking, there is a perceived object of experience. And so it is not grounded in reality. It's not grounded in what is true and real about your life, and therefore it lacks being. And with that, well, it lacks love. I mean, that's at times the inauthenticity of the thinking is that then we speak about love, but it's just talk. It's not a reality of being that then we are speaking to.”

John Kremer:

“There's really in duality no reality.”

Louis Koster:

“Yeah.”

John Kremer:

“And all thought is essentially an aspect of duality. It's putting a perceiver and a object of perception and all of that interaction that goes on, but none of that is part of what is truly real.”

Louis Koster:

“Yeah. It lacks reality. It's just a fault, and it's a duality that is constituted inside of language. So people say talk is cheap. I mean, it can give them experience, but what's the extent of that it resonates with your being? That is basically the question that you're raising here.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“In your diary, you said that the only way to break the bond of thinking is to take sincere action, action that lets me be real in the smallest things. Now, that's a little bit different than what you say. Or at least it sounds different than what you say when you say, "Allowing for the totality of what arises."

Louis Koster:

“Yep.”

John Kremer:

“Which you say is what breaks the bond of thinking also.”

John Kremer:

“But here you're saying that you can break the bond by taking a sincere action. I'm a little confused about what that means.”

Louis Koster:

“Well, it's very contributing what you bring up here in the conversation, is that, and thank you for that. So let's say sometimes I find myself in the middle of it. It might be a consideration that I have about a person, and the thinking works this way, very condescending or diminishing or whatever the thinking might come up. And so one way to step out of it is actually take action, that is not of the thinking.”

“And it might be just reaching out to that person or saying hi or in a work situation to go to a person and say, "Hi, how are you? So what's up for today? Is there anything that I can do for you today?" Or something like that. That action would completely take away, blow up whatever the mind is going on about. So in that sense, that came up for me when I wrote that.”

John Kremer:

“So even a small action can sometimes just break up the duality and allow for a more legitimate interaction between two people.”

Louis Koster:

“Yes. Yeah, it's like a pinprick in a balloon of the thinking, in that bubble that sometimes takes hold of us.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“It's interesting where you said that it's not just letting it be, but you almost have to actively accept it. All those thoughts arising, and it's not just, "Okay, I'll let them be."

“But you have to almost not engage, but in some way accept that those thoughts are there. I'm not quite sure how to explain it. I think words are failing me here.”

Louis Koster:

“Yeah. Yeah. I think that I know what it is that you bring to the conversation. You see, accepting is like accepting, like giving in, but accepting ... There was something in the way that you said it that rang true for me is, accepting as in, acknowledging the existence of them. Like, to acknowledge exactly how whatever arises in my consciousness exactly as it is, as they are arising.”

“Well, the tendency is, is that when something arises in my consciousness that I don't like, to resist it or to engage with it, or to give it some kind of some interaction that would like to have it go away, but then the full embrace of it, where I acknowledge the existence of what is arising, exactly as it is.”

John Kremer:

“In some ways it's a little bit more than just letting it be, because there is that element of acknowledging it, but not engaging in it.”

Louis Koster:

“Yes. And then, when I have acknowledged what arises exactly as it is, as it is arising, that then allows me to experience it exactly as it is, and that is the moment that it loses its allure, its spell, the edge that it might have.”

John Kremer:

“I think it's a good insight, because at some points you've said, "Just let it be." But let it be isn't quite the reality of what you're doing, because you're in some way actively acknowledging it, but not engaging in it.”

Louis Koster:

Yes. And then, when I have acknowledged what arises exactly as it is, as it is arising, that then allows me to experience it exactly as it is, and that is the moment that it loses its allure, its spell, the edge that it might have.

John Kremer:

I think it's a good insight, because at some points you've said, "Just let it be." But let it be isn't quite the reality of what you're doing, because you're in some way actively acknowledging it, but not engaging in it.

Louis Koster:

Yes.

John Kremer:

And I guess you could call that, let it be, but it seems like it's a little bit more than just letting it be.

Louis Koster:

Letting it be as it is, as it arises.

John Kremer:

There we got it.

Louis Koster:

Letting it be as it arises in my consciousness. Yeah.

John Kremer:

Yeah. So, it's not necessarily the Let It Be of The Beatles, but I'll let it be just simply as it is.

Louis Koster:

Well, you don't know. You don't know how John Lennon wrote that song. It might have been like that.

John Kremer:

It might be exactly the same. We don't know.

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“You talk about a thought arising creates the illusion of duality as if there's something separate for me to react to. And experiencing what arises exactly as it is dissolves the illusion of the perceiver, thereby voiding the rising from the experience of duality. I thought that was an interesting observation of what happens as you allow for the totality of what arises.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yes. It's extremely interesting of what you highlight here. Actually, this morning, in my preparation of our conversation, I was reading that part of the diary, and I had this very interesting... Well, it's this very powerful insight since I asked myself the question, "Why is it? Why is it that when I allow for what arises, like my thoughts, and they create a sense of duality, as in there is the experience of the perceived and the perceiver, there is the experience of I have a thought or I have this experience or something, why is it that when I experience in this process of allowing, when I experience duality exactly as it is, that that dissolves the illusion of the thinking?" I'm no longer taking it so seriously and I stop identifying with whatever it is that it is telling me.”

“And I thought, "That is so curious." It is true that is my experience, that that is what is happening, but why is that? Or how is that? Or what is it about that that sets me free from the illusion of the thinking?”

“And then I realised that when I experience duality exactly as it is, then I return to a place of undivided attention. And I thought that is such an incredible insight into this process of allowing and how that then sets me free from this compelling nature at times of the thinking that tells me all kind of things. And then there's a tendency to identify with whatever it is that it is telling me. And then this process of allowing for the totality of it, and then experiencing it exactly as it is.”

“Then what happens is that I then return to a place of undivided attention, which is a place of being. So then I have set myself free, so to speak, from the duality of the thinking. The spell is broken.”

“I find that an amazing insight since it gave me another insight in the deception of the thinking, which is it tells me when a thought comes up that I don't like. So let's say that I need to engage with it. I need to solve it. I need to bring it to a resolution. I need to undertake action. But the very effect of that engagement keeps me more in the duality of the thinking, which then keeps me further away from my true awareness or being.”

“While, on the other hand, if I have the courage and to do this counterintuitive thing called allow for the totality of it and then experience whatever rise in my consciousness exactly as it is, then I return to a place of undivided attention where I'm free, where I am myself.”

“So that tells me a lot about the nature of an illusion, the deception of it. It wants to grab my attention. And then I find myself, you could say, with a sense of being entrapped in the thinking, whatever the thought is. And for one person, that is something else than for another person. Or it might be at different moments of the day or whatever that is. But then in our effort to wrestle ourselves out of it, we get more of it and we are then further removed from our true sense of Self.”

“While salvation, so to speak, is found in the ability to just let it be. But not just let it be like, "I just let it be," but to let it be to the extent of having the capacity and the courage to experience it exactly as it is. In that moment, attention returns to a place where it is undivided. And then therefore, the world as I experience it is undivided, which is the world of being, which is the sense of being yourself where there is no object of experience.”

“And another way of talking about this that is a state of non-duality. So I thought that that gives... And sometimes it's just helpful or it's just great to have a little bit of an understanding of something that is so elusive, an insight that makes sense of something that's working.”

“There was a question that I brought this morning to my preparation. Why is this working? Why is it that it is working when I do this counterintuitive thing to allow for what I absolutely do not like as part of my experience?”

“But when I allow for that, something happens that sets me free from it. This is what it is. I then pierce through the illusion of the thinking, realising that the solution is not found in anything that I'm experiencing.”

“The solution is found, is to experience it exactly as it is, which has me return to a place of undivided attention, and that's a place where I'm free, free to be, free to be myself.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“I think that you go on in your diary and you talk about if you're not being productive, that's a symptom that you're not aligned with your own being, and then you talked about a few other symptoms, so you can measure it. You can actually say, "Okay, I'm not aligned with my being, if I'm not being productive, if my relationship's thriving conflict, if my career is falling apart, or I have writer's block." Those are all signs that you're not, at that point, aligned with your being.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yes. There's an involvement and engagement with the thinking, so to speak. That creates division. It divides my attention, and I'm no longer aligned with my true being at the cost of my productivity, my creativity, and the experience of love and aliveness in a relationship.”

John Kremer:

“So if you want to know if you're really aligned with your being, it's not that hard to figure it out. You're not being productive. You're not being intimate, you're having writer's block, things like that. It's a pretty good sign that you're not quite there yet.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Well, you are there, but you don't realise it.”

John Kremer:

“Yes. And as a result, when you're not experiencing that level of being, the other things just don't work the same way as they should work.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yes, exactly.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“You say, true intimacy is the expression of oneness, of being. It seems like, as you wrote, you say that basically the experience of being is an experience of intimacy, true intimacy, and that probably, then, is reflected on everything you do with other people or other things. The intimacy just carries through to it.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yes, absolutely.”

John Kremer:

“Yet, there is that other side of it, which you say, where it helps to have somebody else, a partner, to experience the full intimacy, certainly in a relationship.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Well, absolutely. Yeah. Now, whether that is a condition to experience love and intimacy at that level, I don't think that is so, since ultimately I'm responsible for my experience of life.”

John Kremer:

“You said it in your diary, you said that beyond the duality of thinking, is being, which is in relationships, expresses itself as intimacy. To me, that seems like you're saying that it really doesn't matter what the other person necessarily brings to the relationship. In your own, you're already experiencing that intimacy.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Exactly. Since intimacy at that level, so to speak, the level of being, is not a personal experience. That is the hallmark of being, is that there's the absence of the personal. There is a reality to being that is undeniable, and that is beyond the self, the personal self.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“There was an interesting additional thing that you said that in awareness of being as a common reality, there's an intimacy. But then you added intimacy is very scary. Is it truly scary in being when that intimacy shows up, or is it something that you reflect when you look back at that particular kind of intimacy?”

Dr Louis Koster:

What you say is absolutely brilliant, and that's a great notion. It is exactly as what you said. In the awareness of being, there is a sense of connectedness, and at the root of our being, we are all one, and that is an experience of intimacy. There's nothing scary about it. That is natural.”

“But then a mind might go off on its ways and say, "Oh, would that mean such and such? Would that mean that now fill in the blank?" So it'll make up something that is a statement about a future, which is all in the thinking. That's not reality in being.”

“There is no time. There is no sense of temporality, and it is the mind that brings temporality to anything that becomes part of your experience, and then it starts speculating on what it might mean.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“I thought you said something very interesting there that when I experience what arises exactly as it is, another dimension opens up, a dimension where kindness and love are natural. I always thought that too many of us, I think, think that kindness and love are goopy things. You do it, but it's all wrapped up in the thinking and the desire rather than the purity of what kindness and love really are when they are natural.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“That's so true. When you are aligned with your true nature, when you're just there, when you are yourself, what comes natural is being kind. What arises is a sense of connectedness that you have with people that you could call love, and there's nothing that you have to do for that.”

“It's not an attitude. It's not something that you took upon yourself because you think they will be awesome. It is something that arises naturally. I think that is the beauty of, well, the ability to just be yourself. There's nothing to look for. There's nothing to strive for. There's no prescription of behaviour that would set your actions into motion. You just are, and all these things that you have been talking about, they come about naturally.”

John Kremer:

“I think that's the important part of it, is that it is a natural phenomenon. It just wells up from within who you really are, rather than trying to put a face on it or trying to do something, trying to be kind, trying to be loving when you don't feel it.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yeah, exactly. Yeah.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“I think that's all part of what you've been talking about all along, but it's really neat to see you state it here. And the next day you said, “To be beyond desire is acknowledging that thinking is an illusion, and that is the ultimate freedom."

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yes, no kidding, so again, that's great that you bring this up. So it is what I see of my own life is that the thinking constantly makes an effort to engage my attention, and it is in the illusion of the thinking that the desire gets created for something. And then when I were to pursue that, or to take that too seriously, then the end result is that I get more wrapped up in the thinking, which takes me further away from a true sense of being. So in that sense, being free from the thinking or being free of the compelling nature of the thinking has me be free from desires to slave for.“

John Kremer:

“Well, you said an interesting note, you said that, "Desires are the final frontier of the mind."

“It reminds me a little bit of Star Trek when they talk about The Final Frontier, but in this case, I presume you're saying that the desires are among the strongest thoughts there are, and it's the mind gives you the desires to keep the mind involved instead of being replaced by being.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yeah.”

John Kremer:

“Did you want to comment on that?”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yeah, so well, as you said, that's very accurate, so you see, the ultimate desire that we have is a desire to be happy, but there is something about the dynamic of desiring to strive for something, there is an inauthenticity there, the promises is that once you have the fulfilment of what you were aiming for, that then you will be happy. And that is not from your own experience, or that is not necessarily true, in that sense, happiness is an ever receding mirage.”

“And so true happiness is a sense of being one with being, is the ability to just be yourself. And in that, when you are yourself, there is no desire, there is no longing for something else. That is what I mean with the absence of desire, so it's just naturally not there in the awareness of being, in just being yourself.”

“And so to be free of desires, which would actually mean the ability to see through the illusion of the thinking, and not be compelled to engage in actions that as you get involved in something that in fact takes your attention away from what truly matters, and that is the ability to be yourself.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

So I thought you started the year off very interestingly. You said, "Being makes whole healing is found in being." And I thought, "Okay, that's a good way to start the new year."

Dr Louis Koster:

Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, that is so true. You see, being is whole, you see, there's no place to get to. And I think that the awareness of being, like seeing through the illusion of the mind that constantly wants to entertain and engage me, catch me in a duality of experience. To go beyond that, or to no longer have my attention being wrapped up into that, I return to a place of being and being is well, that's what I am, and what I am is naturally wholesome. There is peace, there is a sense of connectedness. There is love, there is clarity, so to speak. When you were to say making whole, what it basically means is working myself or oneself through whatever is in the way of being aware of your true being. But in fact, there is nothing to make whole, because I'm already whole. I'm already there. So there's nothing to add to it. It's a matter of being aware of it.

John Kremer:

I think that's all part of what you've been talking about all along, but it's really neat to see you state it here.

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“In another place, you say that when I'm not defined in relationship to myself, I step out of the illusion of being a person. Then, someone throwing darts at me of being a person doesn't hit a target since the target doesn't exist. So I think you're sort of using the mind of the language here ... The language of the mind to show that all this stuff is really an illusion. It's part of the mind language and not the being language or I'm not sure what you want to call it.”

Dr. Louis Koster:

“Yeah, yeah. It's incredible, interesting, very, very powerful what you just said and very interesting. And it speaks to so many things, like in the normal discourse or in a normal being in a world or a conversational relationship with people, when someone says something, like someone would say to you, "You are a jerk," The immediate response is, "Well, I'm not a jerk." Or, "Oh, why do you say that?" Or, "I don't like that." Or, "I feel hurt," or something like that…

“We take it personally.”

“And that is then the genesis of a conflict and that can then escalate, and then there's more separation of inside of that relationship and so forth. So when you are clear that what you are is not definable, it's not even perceivable, then, all of that doesn't land anywhere. It's not like you don't care, and even it isn't like that you don't mind, it has no reality. So then, it is just what someone says and, "Oh, okay."

John Kremer:

“The thing is that, that's the truth, is that it's just something that somebody said.”

Dr. Louis Koster:

“That's what it is. And in fact, and it's very interesting as well, is that when someone speaks in a way that is condemning or judgemental of you as a person, they think that they know you, but in fact, what they are doing is they are describing their own experience of you. That is the truth.”

“So there is something about language that gives the illusion, when spoken, that you know the object of experience like that you know the object that you are speaking to. There's an actual conviction that you know, but in fact, you are just describing your own experience.”

John Kremer:

“That experience is from their mind and their thoughts.”

Dr. Louis Koster:

“Yes.”

John Kremer:

“It's not from their being, so really, to get caught up in it is to get caught up in thoughts again and a mind that isn't even your own, necessarily. It's just what the other person experienced.”

Dr. Louis Koster:

“Well, yeah. So when you then react against it, and you take it personally, then, you get this exchange that is very destructive, very negative, it's a design of an argument, but it happens within the domain of illusion. Also, it is not true communication.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“I like that. Later on in your diary, you say that all ambition to be someone is absolute nonsense, and that I find peace in knowing that I don't have to be someone. And I think that that's all part of the same thing you've just been talking about, is that you don't have to be anyone. You can just be who you are. And some of us might think of that as a risk, but the reality is it's not a risk at all because it is what you are.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And what a mind is all about is to make you, to make me perceivable so that what you are is defined, but there is no life in it. Again, it is a simulation of being. It is not the real thing, so to speak. In that sense, to be takes courage.”

“Because when you are aligned with the unmanifested life unfolds, there is no certainty. Memory won't do you any good. There is no room for that. You've got to work it out in the moment. But that's why you find excitement, where you find adventure, where you find discovery, where you find well, where you are yourself.”

John Kremer:

“And that's certainly worth a little risk.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“I just want to say one thing about it. It's so interesting. This is as if we are talking two different languages. When we speak to this phenomena, you see this idea of taking a risk.”

Who's saying that? Who's talking?

“That is the mind. So from the perspective of the mind, you're taking a risk of course, because you're, you're stepping out of its reality.”

“The mind can't perceive a reality beyond itself. And that is the reality of being, which has nothing to do with the mind. That will be then another language. That is the language of being versus the language of the mind.”

“And so the mind gives you these interpretations, and that's how we talk about it. But in fact, it is from the perspective of the mind. When you were to say, "Oh, you take a risk," while in fact, in being there is no risk.”

“How is it risky to be yourself?”

John Kremer:

“On the level of the mind, it tastes courage, it's risky, but in the reality of being, there's no such thing.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“It may be unfamiliar. You could say it is unfamiliar to be.

“Well, yes.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“In your diary, you said that, "When the mind creates an experience, and I take it for reality, it actually limits my sense of the possible." And again, you repeated, "I am wasting my time and energy solving problems that don't exist, and I leave what really matters to me on the table while chasing the goals that have no value at all for me." I thought that was really great insight into why you can be productive once you've let all that other junk just slide by the wayside. You allow for those things to happen, but you don't invest yourself in them.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Absolutely. And while you're talking, I'm so present to, if I look at my own life, how much I have wasted in terms of opportunity to just be out there to enjoy myself or to be fully engaged in, well, in the task at hand or whatever it is that I have committed myself to. And I mean, that is phenomenal. It is absolutely... Well, I've got no words for it. And so this little insight, just this little insight that what I might present you as an anticipating reality that we draw our conclusions that makes us decide whether we are going to do something or not, or take action or not. That is an absolute illusion.”

“So it pretends to, if you look at that anticipating experience, it kind of mimics being as if you were taking action already, and then you kind of vote whether you like it or not. And based on that, you take a decision to take action. So that is all memory, that is recycled memory, but it has the flavour, the connotation as if it is real. So the best I can bring it to language is that the thinking mimics or simulates being. And that's not reality.”

“So, rather than arguing with it or coming up with an argument where that has got any validity to just step out of it and act. And when you do that, experientially, it might occur as, what are you doing now or that is irresponsible. You haven't consulted your thinking, or something like that whatever the mind then throws out. But in fact, you are being yourself. You are authentic to yourself. And what occurs as a risk is in fact that then you align yourself with the unmanifested because you don't know what's next. That is the truth.”

“Reality is not a linear phenomena. Reality is, but that's then again, described from the mind, that is the next moment. But that is inside of the limitation of the mind and the limitation of language to say it like that “the next moment.” Because there is no next moment. What there is, is being, and the possibility of taking action is that then you align yourself with what is not yet manifest. And in doing so, there is a discovery, there is adventure, there's excitement. You've got a sense that you're being alive.”

“Now. Does it take a risk to be alive? You already alive. So I think it's time to be yourself.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

One of the things you said as a result of that is that one of the benefits of knowing myself and being myself is that I become naturally more productive.

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yeah. So, that is in keeping with what we just discussed is if there is no longer this consumption with the thinking, because you can't think and act at the same time. So, it's very interesting. That is another aspect of this investigation that came to me, is that when you consider being, there is a oneness of action and you being there. With the thinking there is the illusion as if you are responding to something, as if you are responding to reality with action. And that is not true, that is inauthentic. That is not being. When you are truly being, there is no separation between how you are being and action. It is one.”

“And you would know from your own experience, when you are really getting into something there is no thinking. There's the absence of thinking. And so, any thought or well, let's say any hesitation to act is where you are not being yourself. You are not being, you are not in the fullness of being, taking action. And that is a phenomena of procrastination. So, what it actually is, is you are present to the thinking, or what happens is that you anticipate taking action and what arises are your thoughts, and that then starts to consume you, or has your attention. And the result is that you're not doing anything. And the solution is not necessarily found to talk yourself out of it, which would be very much the strategies that people have, and that might work to a certain extent.”

“But the solution is found in seeing it for what it is, is that these thoughts of anticipation that point to the future, that is a pure illusion. It is a simulation of being, and then you create a conclusion out of that, that you may or may not like to do that. Well, that only exists within the mind, so to speak. And so, when you realise that all these anticipating thoughts, or that the anticipation of something is nothing less than the thinking, creating the illusion of being, it's not real in other words, then you can step out of it just like that. And when you step out of it, then you are taking action that is grounded in the un-manifested.”

:So, you could say that where there is no future, what's left is what hasn't happened yet, which is the unmanifested. And in that sense, you could say that being arises inside of the un-manifested, and anything else is a concept that is just the illusion of the mind that creates the idea of a perceiver and the perceived, which is not reality. It is a projection of your own imagination.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“I noticed one thing in your diary from December. That you said is that, "All the time I spend on being engaged with problems that are not really problems and then creating solutions to those problems that do not exist."

“I think there are a lot of us that do that, and probably most people spend most of the time creating solutions to problems or trying to find solutions to problems that really don't exist.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yeah. It is hilarious, and at the same time, it's what people do, what I do, what we all do, how we get into the thinking, or how the thinking grabs us. And the other day it came to me that it's really... it is ignorance that keeps us in the prison, so to speak, in the entrapment of the thinking. It's just we never had a look at that. And there's nothing mischievous or malevolent about it. It is, never had a look at what draws my attention, what has me be fascinated, and what has me become attached to what comes up in my consciousness?”

“And this journey of awareness, this in the particular, this process of allowing, letting be, that really, really gave me the opportunity to have a look, to pause, rather than being in this frantic, nonstop engagement with the thinking. It gave me the opportunity to just pause and have a look. Because when you allow for what arise in your consciousness, it's like you have stopped a movie.”

“And also that attention is freed up, you can give it your full attention, and then you might see it for what it is. And when you find that out, when you see for what it is, then basically what came to my awareness is that there's nothing, it's that there's nothing to see. Yet we experience it as reality, and that is fascinating.”

“How is that?”

“And how can we get hooked in the thinking to the point that it drives our behaviour, that it becomes all consuming? And so I think it's a very worthwhile investigation. And so that is what this is all about, is to set yourself free from the tyranny of the mind and to become aware of your own true being.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“So in a sense, real problems aren't problems at all. They're just things that require some action.”

“And the things we call problems are not problems at all, because they're related to the unreal Self. But that means we don't have any problems anywhere.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“That's probably true.”

John Kremer:

Okay. But we still experience some…

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yeah, exactly.”

John Kremer:

“In our everyday life, so many of us experience things, and I know you've talked about that in terms of some of the things that you were fighting when you were younger, and it seemed like they were problems, and it's like you were fighting them, I guess. I guess we all do when we perceive a problem, we really do fight it, because we think it's something important in some way.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Well, that's right. So it is the perception of the problem that then starts to organise our behaviour. Now, that's interesting, because then what we tend to do is to take action to minimise the problem, or what we think would minimise the problem, while in fact the solution might be found in the full comprehension of what is arising in your consciousness. The full experience of clarity comes about when you allow for it, for whatever's arising, and that then you experience it exactly as it is, and then see what's left of the problem. So basically, it is for you to discover what is real and what is not real, and it is in that understanding that you find a solution.”

John Kremer:

“Ignoring it's the wrong word, because that's an action. You're sort of pushing it away, something like that.”

“Whereas allowing for what arises is sort of accepting it? Or is it something more than just acceptance?”

Dr Louis Koster:

“When you allow for what is arising, and you allow for the totality of it, what it gives you is the opportunity to experience it exactly as it is. And then what happens is what was first an appearance that had a hold on you, you now see it for what it is. It's just a thought, and then it disappears. This is the nature of an illusion, is that it might occur as real, but it doesn't exist.”

“So how would you deal with that? How would you deal with this phenomena that gives you the experience of reality while it does not exist?”

“So the only way for what is an illusion to stop having a hold on you is by seeing it for what it is, because what keeps it in place, that is your point of view. And so the moment that you experience it, or whatever's arising in your consciousness, exactly as it is, what dissipates naturally, or what dissolves is your point of view, because you're allowing for it, the experience of it in its totality requires you to give up all your likes, all your dislikes, all your attachments. And with that, the personal self that has an investment for it to be a certain way dissolves. So what's left is... Well, what's left is nothing.”

“In that case, nothing is the best thing that could ever happen to you. And that is often the conclusion when you go through this process of allowing and letting be. What you're left with is like, well, that was just a thought. And that is my experience, that in 99% of the situations that I perceive something as a problem, that the outcome is that I do nothing, that there is nothing to take action on.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“I know that there are times in my life when I'm doing something and I'm just focused in on it, and then the stillness occurs, which I think is similar to what you talk about when you fall into the Self.”

“But do you think that all of us could fall into that Self more often if we did a diary like you did?”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Well, this is what it is. We all live our lives, and whatever it takes to discover what is true and what is not true.”

John Kremer:

“So, I might not be doing a diary. I find that in reading your diaries, I often fall into silence. I just go swimming with your thoughts, and they take me probably close to where you went, in some sense. I really like your diaries and the way they, as I've said before, they turn into a song and into music and the refrain comes back over and over again, in a sense, to draw you deeper into whatever.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Well, I'm truly inspired hearing what you just said. That is amazing and so very grateful that this is possible. That out of your reading the diary, that you have that unfolding in your own awareness that leads you to a place of peace and an awareness of your own true self or the awareness of your true being. I'm speechless. Look, I'm grateful and I'm inspired by what you say and I'm amazed, and thank you for letting me know.”

John Kremer:

“Well, they're just amazing. I never think of them as being sticky in any sense at all. I think they simply open doors in some way, into consciousness, I guess, into the Self.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“I guess while you're speaking, what I as well see is that it opens the door in what is common to all of us, and that is being. So although I share it as a personal experience or that is how that is inevitably, when you write something, it's like in poetry, it evokes or it might evoke something that is much bigger and larger than that which was written, and so it speaks to what we have in common to what is common, and that's being.”

John Kremer:

“I think the closest I could get to something I've read before might be Walt Whitman's Song of Myself, which always took me somewhere else.”

“I think your diaries do it more efficiently.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“I don't know what to say.”

John Kremer:

“You don't have to say anything. Just keep writing them.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“So, there is a common reality and this writing or whatever it is that it stands for, as I see it, makes available what we have in common, but also it is a conversation in a common reality. Or something like that.”

John Kremer:

“I like that. In many ways, your talking diary seems like you're talking to your other self in some way, but not... Oh, I guess I lost my thought. But there is something there that feels like what you're writing, it clearly takes me deeper and it probably takes you deeper. And I won't be surprised if it took other people deeper, and somewhere in that quietness, people will fall into the Self.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yeah. That is very well said. And while you were speaking, I actually saw this is which is that the thrust or the theme of the writing, the direction of the writing is all about transcending the personal, so to speak. That is to say, to identify that the personal self in fact does not exist. That is an illusion. It is an appearance that we might live, and then we have a story about that. And for some of us, that is all there is or what is available beyond the personal self, and I think beyond the personal self that the diaries open up, someone reading the diaries might find themselves because it touches on common reality.”

John Kremer:

“I would suspect more than just someone will have that experience. I think there are a lot of ones that could experience that, because in reading your diaries, and I think sometimes even speaking to them aloud, it's like you don't even worry about the totality of thought. You're just in it and you fall into self as a result. That was it.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Now, I do have one thing to say about that is that if this is like poetry, it might open up something extraordinary for someone. What I see is my true intention is that it is not just an experience, but actually that gives someone the avenue or pathway to come to their own truth.”

John Kremer:

“Right.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Not so much their own truth, but to come to what is true, which ultimately is not your truth or my truth, but to what is true, which would open up the possibility of living an authentic life, of just being yourself, and that is everything.”

John Kremer:

“Right.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Thank you, John. See you next week.”

John Kremer:

“Yes. All right. Bless you.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“In your diary from that day, you said that what gives an experience an illusion of permanence is when it's associated with the Self that is itself perceived as permanent. But that self, associated with experience, is truly not permanent because it's not you. It's not the true Self. Therefore, it can't be permanent.”

Dr. Louis Koster:

“Yeah, no. After a role, I've given that it a lot of thought. That is in my January diaries that you are about to receive. The real question is, what gives the illusion of permanence of an experience? Because an experience is not permanent. But in the moment of its occurring, there is a sense of permanence, like when someone tells you a story. It's like you are drawn into the story. But at the same time, it's over. It's not happening right now. What I realize is that what gives a sense of permanence to an experience is that somehow you identify yourself with that experience, and that is what gives that sense of permanence.”

“Now, identifying with an experience is due to the fact that the thinking creates a simulation of being. Whatever the thinking throws out, your consciousness simulates as if that is being, as that is you being in the world, having an experience. That is the illusion of the mind. It mimics or simulates being.”

“Language has no being, although it gives you the experience of it. That is a whole experience of the perceived and the perceiver. That is the duality of the thinking: that it gives you that experience of being that is not your true being. It's not like having a walk or doing something. But the thinking gives you that experience as if it is a real experience of being. What it is it's powerful to realize it because when the thinking throws out a thought, and the thought creates an experience, it's already done. It's over. It's too late. You can't interfere with it. You can't change it. It already has happened. The thinking shapes the experience of your life. There's nothing that you can do about it. It's already there.”

“How to come to a place of knowing what is true is by allowing for the totality of that experience, even if it is uncomfortable or whatever the thinking is telling you, that creates an experience that might be uncomfortable. What then happens is that you become aware of being conscious. In that moment, there is a sense of what is true and real. You see that that is not a true experience of being. It's just a thought. It is the awareness of being conscious that dispels the illusion that you are that experience because you are not. It's just a thought. The awareness of being conscious, so to speak, brings you back to your senses. It brings you back in the place of being. It breaks a spell of permanency of an experience.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“So, you're essentially saying at one point that the magic of language is that it creates the illusion of a separate Self.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yes.”

John Kremer:

“So, if the separate self is an illusion, is the thing that it's separate from also an illusion?.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“The illusion is in the duality. And again, related to the structure of language, which is just amazing. I mean, if you think about it, language is just sound. And so we have developed as human beings to the point that we started to structure sound and came to the formation of grammar that assert ourself in language. And as long as there is the idea of an eye having an experience, there is a duality that in fact, or in reality does not exist. It's purely conceptual.”

John Kremer:

“It's pretty sticky as a conception. But I like what you say in the sense that you just allow the thought to arise and you don't really pay it much attention. And that's when you start to, I don't know, you don't experience the duality at that time when you follow the thought. I think you said something about that it becomes just whatever it is, but it's no longer... Okay, I'm lost.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“No, no, no, no. So I follow what you're saying exactly. So when you experience it exactly as it is, it loses its duality and you come to realise it as a thought, and then...”

John Kremer:

“At that point, the thought no longer has any power.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Exactly. You are no longer hooked into it, and then suddenly you find yourself in a peaceful place and you think, my God, what just happened? I was in all this turmoil and all these thoughts that told me about the future or those that said something about me and this and that, and that's all gone now and I'm just there. And that just being there, that is your true self, and in being there, there is nothing to perceive. In being there, you are just perceiving. Being is just you are just there. There's nothing in particular that you are perceiving, so there is no sense of an external world when you are just being.”

John Kremer:

“I love how this was actually the most fun part of what we've been talking about, because suddenly we caught what you were really saying is that when you let the thought go, it goes and all that's left is reality.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yeah. The reality of being there.”

John Kremer:

“That excited you.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Well, it's what I am, and what comes with it is the joy of being is just the joy of being. You could say that is happiness, but that's just there. There is no reason. I would not be wondering why I would be happy it. It's just something that is my true nature, which is also very interesting because the thinking is on this constant move and activity to tempt me into doing things that would make me happy. While the truth is that my true nature is happiness, and so if I can see through the illusion of all of that, then there is nothing to look for. There's nothing to find out. There is nothing to discover, and that is an incredible, powerful insight. It actually might change the whole outlook and scope and direction of a person's life.”

John Kremer:

“I can see that with the power of knowing your true nature, even if just for a moment would always have an impact on whatever you do after that. Even if you get caught back up in the thoughts.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Exactly. Because then there's the knowing that that's not your true reality, and that might be the first step to return to what's real, to your true being, and to live an authentic life. Basically what I'm talking about is just be yourself.”

John Kremer:

“I like that.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“I feel sometimes, in some ways, I guess you could say challenging that it almost overwhelms listening to you talk about it. I don't know if that makes sense or not. But I can't see the thoughts that you're expressing are, in some ways, very challenging to those of us who love sticky thoughts or at least caught up in them.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yeah, I can totally get what you say. So none of it what I'm saying does make any sense.”

John Kremer:

“That's it. I knew it.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“And it is only through your own experience that you can find this out, so understanding it is not going to make any difference and will not give a sense of freedom or freedom to be. The freedom is not found in a thinking, it's found out in discovering of what is true. In your life, to discover what is true and what is not true.”

John Kremer:

“It seems like for you, a lot of that process happened as you wrote every morning in your diary as you recorded simply what you were observing happening.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“That is so accurate. It is a diary where it's just unfolding, it is an investigation in my own unfolding of what's happening in my life, and how I can go about that in such a way that I have more clarity and what is actually true.”

John Kremer:

“Well, it seemed like in reading some of your diaries that it was like a process of watching, I guess you could say, or observing the thoughts that were arising and just allowing them to rise and out of that came discovery.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“That is absolutely true. Yes, exactly. So true discovery can only happen when first I allow for what is there. So what you said that is actually very, very interesting is that I took what upon myself as an experiment to actually see what is there in my consciousness. And from my perspective, I can say that I took the courageous step to allow for the totality of it and then see what is unfolding, what is happening, where that leads me to. And that also gave me the opportunity to see it exactly for what it is.”

“And what I noticed was, to my own surprise, that the seeing of it exactly as it is actually made an enormous difference, that in seeing it for what it exactly is, is where is part of the solution to what I might have perceived as a problem.”

John Kremer:

“In some ways, I sort of think of it as an athlete who's well-trained, they no longer think about each step of the swing of the bat, let's say, in baseball or every little step in trying to catch a football, because the minute you think about every step, you're going to trip. But if you just get into the totality of that experience, you make a good catch or you hit the baseball or whatever happens. But if you try to think, if you ask one of them, "Well, how do you swing that bat so accurately," you're going to ruin their swing if they have to think about every little step of it because they've left go of all those thoughts, and all they're doing now is acting on the experience that they have of who they are and how they swing.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“I'm not too sure whether they act on their experience, I think they are in the game.”

John Kremer:

“Right.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“They are the game.”

John Kremer:

“Right. I think that's a good way to say it. I know when I played different sports, when I think about it too hard, my play deteriorates, but when I just played the game, I do much better.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yeah. Yeah. So how to play the game of life is to be yourself.”

John Kremer:

“And the best way to be yourself is to allow for the totality of what arises.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yeah, ongoingly.”

John Kremer:

“So you have to be courageous at every minute for all of that.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“So thoughts are easier to deal with than others, but this is just the nature of it, they come out of nowhere. In particular, when I think that I'm having a great time, that things are going fantastic, when something comes up, that obviously what I need to deal with. So it's not about comfort. Having a great life, it's not about comfort, but it is the ability, the skill to be with whatever is there, and then in such a way that then I return to my true self, so to speak.”

John Kremer:

“And the thing that allows you to return to that true self is just be allowing for the totality of what arises.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“I like what you do with what you are talking about, with the whole idea of that the thought is there, but you just allow it to be. And you allow not just that thought, but the whole totality of what arises.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yeah. Also, so this just came up for me while you were speaking, is that when thoughts arise, or to say the simple, when thoughts come up, we always have some kind of an intervention going on. Either we shy away from them, or there's a resistance, or we have an interaction, and that actually shapes the experience of the thought, but also, how it then starts to escalate.”

“And so, truly allowing and letting be for whatever is arising, then it's like, then it's exactly as it is. And what I've found is that then, at some point, that escalating nature of the thinking gets arrested. It just stops. So, it is my attention that keeps it going. And attention can have different forms. There's a feeling of, well, I don't like this, or there's an interaction of some sort that then starts to shape then as well your experience of life.”

John Kremer:

“A lot of what happens in that interaction is where you get sort of stuck.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Exactly.”

John Kremer:

“And that again was, you talk about that in your Talking Diaries sometimes, and you've talked about things that are sort of like that. And then, you then just let go. You allow for the totality of what arises, and that gets rid of the stickiness.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yes. And then, at some point, it's like the mind runs out of its course. It has got nothing to chew on. And when that's happening, then there is what we call, there's a peace of mind. Well, actually, there is a sense of peace because there is no longer that engagement with the mind, and we are freed up. The attention that we are is freed up.”

“And what then arises or then inside of that, what arises is the awareness of being, and that is then immediately recognised as your true reality or as one's true reality. That is what is real, not a thinking.”

John Kremer:

“Right. We don't want any of that thinking.”

Dr Louis Koster

“Well, it is interesting, but we take it too seriously, so to speak.”

John Kremer:

“Yes. But I know you talked about it in some part of your diary that if you fight it... And in fact in the diary on June 1st, you talked about the demons you were fighting. Literally, the demons you were fighting were the thoughts that you were having.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yes.”

John Kremer:

“And by fighting it, you sort of stick with it, and the thought takes over, and that's all there is.”

“And part of what you said is that you were saying it, true liberation was to be found when the demon... When you found that the demon never existed.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Exactly. What we often call a demons... Or to speak from my own experience, when I was a young person, I had a stammer, and that was not so much the problem, but the problem was how people were talking about it. And that gave me an experience of Self that I identified with, and that then started to have its own dynamic in social interaction. What I was avoiding, with whom I would hang out with, what I would do, or what I would not do. It limited the sense of the possible, what I saw was possible in the expression of my life.”

“Now, what I can say now is that at that time, I did not have the capacity, or I was not equipped with the insight that this experience of Self that our mind creates and is located inside of duality, is not real.”

“That sense of self or the personal Self, as you might call it, doesn't exist. It is an illusion. It is an appearance that we take for reality. It's just an idea. But where the problem arises is that when you get into it and you start to converse from that, that experience, and then, you build a story, then that becomes your reality. And so, it's all made up basically. It's not real.”

“So, you could say that the personal Self that we tend to construct in our narrative, that's not real. It's an illusion. And there is merit in realising that because if there is not the awareness that it is just an idea, that it is not reality, then that is what determines your actions. It determines your choices, and it shapes the experience that you have both of yourself and life. And that is not necessary.”

“And that is what I see is the possibility of this conversation.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“I think I still, in my own Self, still seem to be holding on to too many thoughts, and it's almost exhausting. I think for most of us who hold on to too many thoughts, it's very exhausting, and then if we could just, as you said, have the courage to allow for the totality of thoughts, somewhere in there, we start to actually experience the realness of what we are, the Self.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“That is so beautiful said. What an amazing insight.”

John Kremer:

“The part about the struggle or the thought about the courage?”

Dr Louis Koster:

“The part that you are the true Self, so that's beautiful.”

John Kremer:

“For me, a lot of the time when I experience the self, it sort of sneaks up on me and just shows up. And probably at that time, I've let go of a lot of things or allowed for the totality of existence. I didn't know I was doing it, but the self just sort of says, "Hey, notice me."

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yes, exactly. You fall into it.”

John Kremer:

“Yeah. I know you like to fall into it.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Oh, yeah. So that is very interesting in what you just said. So for some people, that means that they go on a holiday and then, for some reason, they suddenly have the experience of just being there. And then they think that they need to go back every year to the same place to have that experience.”

John Kremer:

“It doesn't work, does it?”

Dr Louis Koster:

“No. Not realising that, actually, there was a moment that they stopped taking themselves seriously.”

John Kremer:

“But that doesn't necessarily mean they have to go on vacation to experience that, not in terms of physically going somewhere else. It may just require that they go on vacation with all the thoughts and simply allow them to rise on their own.”

“And that's its own sort of vacation, I think.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yeah. That's very funny.”

John Kremer:

“What part of it is funny?”

Dr Louis Koster:

“So when you go on vacation, you're taking your thoughts on vacation. Well, the question is, "Are your thoughts taking you on vacation or are you taking your thoughts on vacation?"

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“One of your major themes in your diaries, which is that whole thing about allowing for the totality of what arises, which I think in some way goes beyond just the simple thought that's going on in your mind, or whatever obsessive thought you have, and you're following along with it, and at some point you might get distracted or something like that, and then you follow that thought. But somewhere along the line, all of that is meaningless compared to even the totality of what arises. And somehow the word that you use allowing for that totality of what arises, sort of takes you out of the thought.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yes, absolutely. That is so true. It's kind of like you start to locate yourself somewhere else. You are losing your point of view in that process of allowing for the totality of what is there. And once you have lost your point of view, because you start to locate yourself in what is at least exponentially the totality of your experience, that is the moment that a window opens into being.”

“A point of view is really what has us be hooked in the experience of the mind. And there's something that happens in your experience when you allow for the totality of whatever is there, that you move away from having a point of view, which is what limits your experience of life and also, which is what defines what you are.”

John Kremer:

“I guess I'm lost again because how do you define what you are when all that you are, is being?”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Right. So one of the hallmarks of being, so to speak, to the degree that I can talk about it, is that it's not defined. So the moment that you define yourself, you have limited yourself. And when you really become aware of your true being, there is no definition. So what you are can't be described. So like I said, it is not an experience. The mind can only tell you what you're not. What you are, you can only be.”

John Kremer:

“That's the beginning of a nice song again. I can't remember what you said now, but it was unlikely as true as words can be.”

“So, I'll have to go back and listen.”

“I've really enjoyed our talk today. I think there's a lot that you covered that even intrigues my mind and almost overwhelms it, which is probably good.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yeah. So thank you, John. So really, I will acknowledge you for your... Well, first for our relationship, for you choosing to have this conversation with me and your inquisitiveness in this conversation, that gives me the opportunity to... well, that gives us both the opportunity to explore what it is to live an authentic life. I think that is really what is the intent of this conversation. Not just to have a conversation, for it to be interesting. It takes a lot of courage to explore truly what it is to be human and what is real and what is authentic in life. So thank you, really.”

“Any other thing that is so wonderful, is that you make me laugh. So that is fantastic because ultimately, although the topic is serious, although it seems to be serious, the lightness is what makes it all possible. So yeah. Fantastic. Thank you so much, John.”

“Beautiful.”

John Kremer:

“Yeah. That was a lot that you said. It's really kind of neat how it comes out of you. And as you said, you're often blank. You don't know what you're going to say until you say it. And then you hear it and you go, wow, that was good.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yeah. That's right. So John, can I ask you, what was your experience of this?”

John Kremer:

“In some sense, very absorbing. I found it very intriguing, and sometimes it actually, in some way, took me out of myself. I don't know if I could say it took me to being, but it took me somewhere.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“I can totally get what you say. So I mean, that's just amazing because what I noticed now is that there is a transformation with you as much as with me from you reading something and then ask me questions, to really ask me questions, having read it all or what you have read, and then ask me question from your own true curiosity in life. And that is so beautiful. I mean, that's such a gift that you do that.”

John Kremer:

“Well, hopefully between the two of us, we can bring out more and more of that.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer:

“So if I am stuck in this storm of thought, the best thing I can do is allow that storm to pass or arise.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Well, here, so this is something that you can find out for yourself. If you are truly observant of what's happening when all these thoughts arise that there is a level of resistance there, you do not want these thoughts to be the way they are. And what is interesting is that when you first of become aware that you're fighting against them, you do not want for that to come to your consciousness or better still, to come to awareness, if you then have the courage to let be, to truly cease all of your activities for them not to be the way they are, then to your surprise, what you will notice is that that is the moment that they will pass.”

John Kremer:

“There's something that you've said a couple of times while we've been talking now about having the courage to allow what is arising to arise.”

John Kremer:

“The totality to arise. Do you think you can allow that to happen without courage?”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Well, so what I mean with courage is that in a moment that you have thoughts that are uncomfortable, then our tendency is to either fight with them or to have them not be there, like we are resisting for these thoughts to fully ... Well, to let them be because there's a notion that if you were to do that then, they would become reality. And so what I mean with courage is that despite it is counterintuitive to allow for them that that is what you do, and that takes courage.”

John Kremer:

“Okay. It's in making the decision to allow the totality to arise that there's some element of making a decision that involves courage.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yes, absolutely because the mind tells you or you have the intuitive sense that if you were to allow for a thought that is uncomfortable, so let's say a thought that points to the future and tells you all nasty things that might happen so thoughts that speculates on something that might be disastrous if that were to happen, allowing for that thought would be the last thing that you would do. But in the decision not to allow for it, implicit, what it tells you is that you take it for reality.”

“And so the moment that you open yourself up to that thought and allow for it in its totality, you are doing something that is counterintuitive because from where you are in the mind, taking that for reality, you would then bring that to reality. That is the perception of the mind that you bring to that experience, and it is just an appearance. It's not real. So in the allowing for its totality of it and then basically seeing that nothing happens, probably winding up in a place that you realise it was just a thought, you then have demonstrated to yourself that what is arising in the thinking is not real.”

“So, no one can tell you that what comes up in the thinking, in your thinking that is uncomfortable is not reality. That will not make any difference. People can speak to you until you turn into a frog. It is only through your own experience, and that is what takes courage to find out, to discover for yourself that is not real, and that is what I'm talking about. And what that gives you is a freedom to be, which is just amazing. That is everything. To have the capacity, the knowing that you are free to be, that you have the ability to be free in the face of anything that arises in your consciousness, that gives you an enormous sense of aliveness, sense of possibility. You're no longer limited or boxed in by what every your thoughts are telling you.”

John Kremer:

“It becomes its own kind of reality that's a real reality in the sense that it is what it is. It's probably a bad way to say it. So that when you talked about it before, it's falling into the Self. And that's what gives you the freedom to act with, I guess you could say without constraint.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Without any personal concern. The concern for the personal is no longer there.”

John Kremer:

“Okay.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“And it's more likely from that place, of the place of being, of just being that actions are more in a correlate with what's happening around you, with what is wholesome, which what is an expression of love, that which is natural and is inclusive and speaks what you are.”

John Kremer:

“I guess in some ways, I can see that as being, I guess you could say the unstickiness of being.”

Dr Louis Koster:

“Yeah, the freedom of being, the awareness that you are it, that you are alive, that truly you are reality.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer: “There was another place where you... It was interesting. You said, I might be quoting it wrong, but, "The experience of “I am oneness” is not the ultimate experience, since it is an experience of duality, the “I” and the oneness. And there is something deeper beyond that, if you're stuck at that level, it's a nice awareness, but it's still stuck in a duality, in a dual nature.”

Louis Koster: “Yeah. I assert that what you're saying is that the realisation that the world, as I experience it, is of my own making. That does not mean that I am the world. It neither means that I am in the world. The world as an experience is of my own making. It is a creation by the mind.”

John Kremer: “Right. You actually said, "'I am consciousness,” is constituted in language and it gives the illusion of a doer. The doer only exists in the mind."

Louis Koster: “Yeah. That is a profound distinction that you're making here. You actually are making this distinction in this conversation, which is remarkable and a incredible value to explore, which is that you could say that there is an, "I am consciousness” that is constituted in language, in the duality of language. There's an “I” that has an experience of an outside world which is the "I am consciousness” that is derived from language, and that's not reality. This is a duality that you could say that we were born into, and it gives us a false sense of ourselves. And then there is the awareness of being. That is the awareness of just being there. So you could say that that is a non-dual understanding of being. Being itself is not an experience. It is the duality of language that brings about an experience of ourselves that is not real. That is to say, it is real as an experience, but it is not reality. The true reality is beyond experience, it is the awareness of being.”

John Kremer: “But can you in any way say that the awareness of being, to a naive person like me, that's like saying the awareness of being is like the, "I am consciousness.” But you're distinguishing the two because the, "I am consciousness” is dealing with language and the world and duality and whatever, and the awareness of being is simply that.”

Louis Koster: “Yes. So the, "I am consciousness” is an experience, so to speak, that lives inside of duality. There is a “me” and there is the experience of a world that is separate for me, and that is purely conceptual. That is not reality.”

John Kremer: “Wait a minute. I can feel it.”

Louis Koster: “Yeah. Well, of course. That's how we communicate. That's how we talk.

John Kremer: “Ultimately, when we're talking, we're not... Well, at least I'm not being aware of being.”

Louis Koster: “Well, to a certain extent you are. Otherwise, you won't be able to have this conversation.”

John Kremer: “Oh, okay. So these were just a few of the things that I noticed in your meanderings.”

Louis Koster: “Well, that's amazing. First of all, thank you for giving that your attention and that it resonated with you and bringing it into our conversation. It's very inspiring and very contributing.”

John Kremer: “Well, I liked how you responded, the answers you gave. That was good.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

Louis Koster: “These conversations are about what truly matters in life, and to bring you to a place if you were to participate or whoever's listening to this, to participate in a conversation, in an inquiry of what is true and what is real. And that makes all the difference. It makes enormous difference in the quality of your life. The difference between someone saying to you, "You are a jerk," and then taking it seriously and then have your whole day be about that, versus seeing it for what it is. It's just someone talking and you never are the you that is spoken to. It is it not your true reality. And that's where you find opportunity to be yourself. And that is what this is all about.”

John Kremer: “In a sense, you're saying that everybody, every time somebody tells me I'm a jerk, it's an opportunity for more awareness.”

“It's interesting. I know in your diary, you talked about one situation that you had in what we'll call the unreal world or the real unreal or whatever in your doctor practice. And you had a situation that you could observe and you could see what was going on, and yet you didn't have to be really involved in it.”

Louis Koster: “What was so interesting is that I recognized in that moment, or in that experience, the power of non-action and what there was, was just the awareness of what was happening. What was interesting is that the situation sorted itself out. So that gave me to realize that in awareness, things sort itself out. That's just amazing.”

John Kremer: “Well, I have found that there's a lot of times when not doing something is actually the most effective thing to do and just let it work itself out. And it's amazing sometimes how it works itself out in ways that can be very surprising sometimes.”

“And that's probably going along with some of what your thought is, you know, you keep saying, "Allowing for the totality of what arises." This is sort of a gross example of it in terms of it being more in the outer world than in the inner thought. But when you let go, it's sort of like you're allowing what will arise to arise or the totality of what is arising.”

Louis Koster: “Absolutely. And what is so interesting is that when we say, "Oh well, I allow for things to happen," or something like that, but that is not accurate. So actually what you allow for is everything that arises, that in my situation, in my consciousness, with respect to what is happening. And so the ability to be with that, and that does not mean give into it, but to literally allow for what is arising in my consciousness and experience it exactly as it is. What arises is an awareness inside of which the situation resolves itself. It's just remarkable. And that is truly the power of non-action.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer: “I can sort of argue that suffering, you're telling me that suffering happens because I buy into it in a sense. I take ownership of it. But in some sense, there are things coming at me from the outside, not necessarily up from the thoughts, at least that's the way it feels. So that somebody's punching me in the face, I'm going, "Okay, that's not just a thought," and I'm suffering from it.”

Dr Louis Koster: “What is suffering? This is all because we identify ourselves with our feelings, and that is where the issue is. You are not your feelings. You are not what you are experiencing. The true you is what makes you aware of having feelings, and is beyond experience. It is what has you be aware that this awareness itself, so the salvation is found in knowing what you truly are. And the moment that you stop identifying yourself with whatever comes up in your consciousness, including your feelings and your experiences, you have a more accurate perspective of both yourself and life. So what I'm saying is that in every experience you are, but you are not your experience.”

“In every feeling you are, but you are not your feelings. And that's where you find your freedom, by knowing what is real. So the real you has never suffered. Even in the midst of all drama and discomfort that you might have been experiencing, that was an experience, but that's not what you are.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John: “Is there a difference between illusion and suffering?”

Louis: “Well, an illusion that is an insight that it is not real, but still, it shapes the experience of your life, and that is what we're dealing with here. That is the power of the illusion. So there's an awareness that it is not real, but still it has an impact on the experience that you have both of yourself and life.”

John: “It seems a different character. I mean, I would think that how I experience illusion and how I experience suffering are certainly a different degree, if not a completely different sort of character.”

Louis: “Suffering is usually the mind bring up thoughts or there is the arising of thoughts that say something about me as a person. They seem to speak to the idea of who I am that then I identify with. So I'm speaking about diminishing thoughts, thoughts that are criticising, thoughts that ... But if you look at it, they are thoughts that speak to you, to a you that you tend to identify with. And that is where the suffering occurs. That is to say, that is a part of consciousness that fair little people speak about because it's so difficult to bring to language. But that is where is the silent suffering that people go through when they are caught up in a mind and they have identified themselves with the thinking. So the silent suffering is identifying with the you that is spoken in the thinking.”

“And so that is where the mind really has a hold on you, so to speak, because that is the part of that we rather don't want to be with when that happens. And interesting enough, the more attention you give to that, the more it grows. So that part of consciousness, I call that the weed, the weed of consciousness. The more you give that attention, these what some people call a negative self talk, but it is actually it ... that is a description. But what actually happens is that the thinking throws out stuff and usually with a character of an outrage. So it speaks to you that then you identify with. So you take it on, so to speak.”

“And that is what gives a sense of feeling miserable, feeling deflated. And the tendency of course is to shy away from that or to resist it. But the outcome of that is that it only becomes bigger and then at some point ... So that's why I call that the weed of the consciousness, because it takes over your life. And what is beautiful is starting to look ugly or is made ugly by that dynamic“

“Suffering is an experience, but what is suffering is not you. What the suffering, that is an imaginary you. It is not your true self, but you have the experience of that because you identify yourself with something that is just thrown into your consciousness. And by lack of understanding of the true dynamic of what is happening, you take it on and you take it seriously. You identify yourself with it, which is not necessary, because you are not that and never have been. And all suffering that you say that you had never was in truth. So in a way and it's all self-inflicted.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer: “One of the things I've noticed about your Talking Diaries is that it really seems like you're singing a song or writing the song and that you keep coming back to things. Part of that comes back to you're using language to describe something that is, in some sense, not capturable by language, but yet, there is a power and magic to language. And what is that power?

Louis: “That is an extremely interesting question. In fact, the question goes to the heart of the matter. What is the power of language? The way I like to say it is that what is the power and what is the magic of language?”

“If you come to think of it, it's actually quite extraordinary. You could say that language, by its unique features, has got the capacity to create a perceived object of experience. What I mean with that is that when we speak, when you speak, there is the immediate experience of something. That is what language does, it creates, you could say the illusion of an object of experience, or it creates a perceived object of experience.”

“What is so interesting about that is, so if you look at it, if you look at how we speak ourselves in language, there's first, the subject and then there is the predicate. Language by its unique features, and a lot has got to do, of course, with grammar. How a sentence is formed is that there is first, the predicate, which points to being, and then there's the subject. Well, when we speak, there's first, the subject and then there's a predicate. You could see that easily, well, let's say if you're not aware of it, you can see how easy it is to get entrapped in the construct of language where you identify yourself with a perceived.”

“Well, in the formation of a sentence, so to speak, there is first, the verb or that which points to being, and then there is a subject. That is actually where the dilemma is. Since once you are hooked in a thought, so to speak, and the thought starts out with I, and then fill in the blank, the experience that it gives you is that you are what you are experiencing. That may not be necessarily true. In fact, that is an illusion, and that is the illusion that language creates. And so, that's how we get caught up in the dream of the thinking. “

“In your diary, you talk about it, that language basically creates separation. You become, essentially, a separate self.”

Louis: “Language creates the illusion of a separate self. That's the experience of “I.” So you say “I” am having this experience. The moment that you really get into that, like you identify yourself with that “I” that is having the experience, you are no longer in touch with your true being, with your true self. That is the power of language. That is the work of a magician.”

“The magician has you look at something that draws your attention while, in fact, something else is happening in some other place that is the real action. The real action is that once you start engaging yourself with the thinking, the real action, so to speak, is that you have lost the awareness of your true self. When you don't know that you don't know, then that is how you experience the world.”

Excerpt of the Podcast:

John Kremer: “I like how you started with existence and what is is. You've told me a number of times, just have the courage to admit, or to allow that what is, is. You said, "Well, that means that every thought that pops up is. It just is. It's not anything you have to worry about one way or the other, because it just is."

Louis: “Exactly. And so, what I noticed in this journey of discovery was actually, that stops the activity of the mind. So, the moment I acknowledge exactly what is arising as it is, it stops that movement of the mind. Well, as I like to call it, it arrests the mind. It stops it. It stops the illusion because what keeps it going is my attention. And when I acknowledged whatever's arising exactly as it is, it kind of freezes what's happening in my consciousness, which is then, at the same time, a great opportunity to see what actually is there. It's an opening for an inquiry, for the investigation. And what I noticed that's there, basically, is nothing, so to speak.”

“It's all an illusion. It is a creation of the mind. It's not real. And then, there are certain things that come with realising that it is not real, that that has a dynamic of its own, that that, at times, is very clever, so to speak.”

John Kremer: “You sort of defeat the monster of thought by denying it in the existence, but you do it not by pushing it out, it seems, but by embracing it in a sense, or at least accepting it.”

Louis: “Yeah. It's very, very interesting in what you're saying. So, by acknowledging the existence of what is arising, I deny it reality because in that allowing and then experiencing it exactly as it is, well, it disappears. I mean, it dissipates. It kind of dissolves. The duality that is created by language, well, dissolves itself.”

“And this is very interesting about a mind. To speak about how clever the dynamic is of illusion, is that it is exactly the opposite of the experience that it gives you, like, what is true is the opposite, then what the thinking tells you is true. For instance, it is counterintuitive when you've got all these thoughts happening and some of these thoughts, they might be scary, or they point to bushfire, or something that might happen. But the last thing that you will do is to allow for it, right? Like, "Oh my God, it might actually happen then." That's exactly the illusion that the thinking creates. Well, the opposite is, if you do, you see for what it is.”

John Kremer: “And when you see it for what it is, then you have nothing to fear.”

“I think I understand a little bit more now about what it means when you talk about allowing for the totality of thoughts to rise because what you're doing at that point is simply saying, "Well, it is."

Louis: “Yeah. Yes, I understand what you're saying. It's kind of like, by seeing the appearance exactly for what it is, it disappears because it was never there. It does not exist. It has never existed.”

John Kremer: “So, it doesn't even go poof because there's nothing to poof.”

Louis: “That's very funny. Yeah.”

John Kremer: “Well, I always think of it when something disappears, it goes poof. But the reality is, if it was never there in the first place, it can't poof.”

Louis: “It's amazing. Yeah, yeah. That's a bit disappointing given all the drama that that has been creating, but that's probably another aspect of it that is extremely funny. So, it is the disappearance of something that never was.”

John Kremer: “Which is... It's sort of like what we talked about in some previous sessions where you talked about the power of language and I mean, how can you say that something disappeared that never was in the first place, and yet in some... So, in some way, language can't quite catch it... It can point, but it can't necessarily be that accurate because in this case, the thing never disappeared because it never was.”

Louis: “Yeah. That's very interesting what you say. So, you could say that language points to being, but does not carry being. You see, that's the illusion of language.”

John Kremer: “As a writer, it's kind of a wonderful illusion.”

Louis: “It creates the illusional being, and that's part of, well, the hook that it creates. So, John, I just want to thank you for this conversation, just stunning. I mean, I'm speechless, for creating the opportunity for a conversation like this to come forward, which is just absolutely extraordinary. So, thank you.”

John Kremer: “Well, I wanted to thank you because there was at least one thing that's always been sort of boggling my mind, and that's that totality of the thoughts arising. But for me, when you talk about it as just recognising what is, somehow that's simpler for me. And I like it because, I think, it's a very powerful insight.”

Louis: “Yeah. I like it too, because of its simplicity. It is the one thing in our life that is indisputable, that is existence. That's something that is beyond belief, interpretation, philosophy. Truly, what is, is. So, I thought it was a great place to start an inquiry…

John Kremer: “So, I appreciated you going through those steps with me.”

Louis: “Yes. You are very welcome. Well, thank you.”

John Kremer: “I think the one thing that I got sort of stuck on was the word allow. How can I allow for the totality of what arises, but I realize it's not just the word "allow." It's also the word totality of what arises. I think I could allow for that little thought to arise. But what you're telling about is I got to allow for everything, those totality of what is arising to arise and just allow that to happen. And when that happens, then what you say is you're stripped of the dual nature. And so then what remains is you sort of fall into being.”

Louis Koster: “Yes, whatever was, so to speak, obstructing your vision in relation to yourself falls away. You see, have pierced through the appearance of something that has been catching your attention. And the interesting thing is that in appearance of something does not exist and that is what makes it so, that's called interesting. But then you are in touch with what is real and you don't have to look for that. You don't have to discover that. You don't have to be smart about it or be educated about it. What's real is what you are. The gift of being alive of being is everything. And in touch with that completely transforms the quality of your life. It's impossible to describe then what is possible. It is something entirely, not even different, but it is another dimension to live from a place of authenticity, of being truly yourself. It's beautiful. Thank you for the question.”

John Kremer: “Yeah. There was a nice additional thing that you said in your diary. You said, when there's nothing to identify with, what erupts is a sense of being. That's sounds like it's not following but bubbling up. In one sense, you're falling into being, but in the other sense being is erupting to embrace you."

Louis Koster: “That's so interesting. And so how great that you bring that to our conversation. So it's interesting or phenomenal, is that you can't look for being, there's nothing to look for. What's there is there, even when you find yourself in the middle of it and there is a moment of awareness that what you're experiencing, so to speak is not your true reality. But still in that experience, there almost is no horizon. There is nothing beyond, and you might have a sense of an entrapment if you stay with it. In fact, if you stay with nothing that's knocking on the door of being. That that is the gift of life. We could call it, that is a grace that being opens itself up or your sense of what is true and real then shows itself, bubbles up. I like it.”

John Kremer: “Well, you said erupt and that's has to be more than bubbling, it's like a volcano. At that point, it sounds like, it almost overwhelms you because that's all there is at that point.”

John Kremer: “The thing that I think I love the concept of what you say in terms of allowing for the totality of what arises, and I can sort of conceptually get that, but experientially I'm going, "Well, that's stupid" or "That's hard to do," or something like that. And I would guess it's a question a lot of people would have when they read that is, "Well, that's easy for him to do, but how the heck do I do it?" Can you give me any insight on that?”

Louis Koster: “Very interesting question. It all depends on you. That is to say, what's the quality of your life? Do you feel limited in the expression of your life? Do you find that when you wake up in the morning or during the day or when you have a project or you need to show up somewhere inside of an intention, do you feel limited by the thinking? Do you feel limited by your thoughts? Do you recognize that if you have decided not to do something or that you are avoiding doing something that you really would like to do, that is a function of the thinking?”

“Something is then arising in your consciousness that either tells you that you're not capable in doing that, or it's not available to you or it's not the right time, or you are not equipped to do that. Whatever it is that the thinking could bring up in a moment that you intend to take action or when you are just being you, might have thoughts that bring you to a place that you feel miserable about life or yourself or the future. Is that something that is part of your life? And if so, are you bothered by that?”

“Do you have a sense that you are much and much more than all that stuff that comes up that you have become used to as a sound of the refrigerator that is always there on the background? This is the key. The key is to realize that it's not your true reality what the thinking brings about. I would say that it is an enormous freedom and sense of the possible available to when you are aware that that is not your true reality. Then you are in a place where you can make choices and you are then gaining perspective that is much and much bigger than the personal. That is to say, then how the thinking defines your reality.”

“So what I'm saying is that there is a reality beyond the thinking, and that is, where is your true life. What you were meant to live," I guess. That's the promise of your life. That is the gift of your life. Are you taking that to its full potential? That is my question. And if that is not the case and you are bothered by that, then you would then have the where withhold to stay with it to go through this funnel of allowing, that is highly uncomfortable, very challenging, because it is worthwhile it you got something at stake, which is called you. So I'm not talking about comfort here. I'm not interested in comfort. Comfort has got nothing to do with it.”

John Kremer: “So where the heck do problems come from? Because I see them all around me, all the time? But where do they come from?”

Dr Louis Koster:”What are problems a function of? So the short answer is, that problems are when we take ourselves too seriously. That is, in effect, when we take our thoughts too seriously. So often what we call "problems" are not really problems.”

“A real problem would be if you don't have any food, and you're not able to eat. There's no food. Or you don't have a shelter, and you are looking for shelter. That is a real problem. So often what we call "problems" are not real problems. Not real problems, as in that you're looking for a food or you're looking for shelter.”

“So you could say... Most likely, problems are when you are not in touch with your true nature. When you live a world that is the illusion of the thinking. When you identify yourself with the self that, in fact, does not exist.”

John Kremer: In my day-to-day existence, most of what I experience is what I would call the storm of thinking. It's just one thought after another. And even if I somehow allow the totality of one thought to just come up and be aware of it, another damn thought follows it right away. So, I know you're not saying, "Well, push all those damn thoughts out," because that doesn't do any good. “But I guess when you allow the totality of a thought to rise, that means that the entire storm of thoughts can arise.”

Dr Louis Koster gives insight when you have the courage to allow for the totality of what is happening in your consciousness or what is arising as your thoughts, so to speak, that inevitably it leads you to a place where you become aware of being conscious. That is what makes all the difference because it is the engagement with the thinking that keeps it going.

John Kremer: “How can I truly wake up when I first wake in a funky mood? It's just that you can't quite wake up or feel good. You can't wake up. It's sort of like you're stuck between dreaming, sleeping, and waking. But you are awake, but it's sort of like everything's left over from sleeping and dreaming, and it's all sort of sticking there, and it's causing an odd mood for you.”

Dr Louis Koster: “So that is a very, very interesting question. And I think that really goes to the heart of the matter of illusion can have a hold on us, and can grab us, in particular when we wake up in the morning. And I'm wondering how we can transcend that, how to be in a place that you can embrace the day as a great opportunity full of possibilities. But there you are, you find yourself in this mood. So one of the things with that is that when you are in a place like that, it's kind of like there is no outside to what you are experiencing. It's just the way it is. And that's part of the issue or the conundrum of this phenomena of an illusion. It has a hold on you, and there is an awareness that that is so, but it's not clear, or you are not clear how you can step out of it. And that is the question.”

Dr Louis Koster, spiritual teacher, poet, distinguished humanitarian, and published author served for over ten years as a medical doctor for “Doctors Without Borders” and other humanitarian organizations in trouble spots across the globe. For his humanitarian efforts, Dr. Koster has received numerous awards and has appeared on radio, television, and news shows.
