“Open Up Your Joy of Cosmic Level”

8:57 March 10, 2011


ZHANG, Cheng: 

Dear Emma, I seem to be able to feel that the strong aesthetic experiences in the external world are literally reflections of the immense glories I feel inside myself. 

In other words, the fluorescent lamp on my desk brings a string of beads a bright luster, which appeals to my eyes simply because it is a secondary reflection of the brighter glories within me. 

Even the tiles in the toilet shine beautifully to me. 

I feel, all this is nothing but a refraction from some gorgeous ray in my inner world. 

That is, beauty does not exist outside, and external beauty is a projection of internal energy.  

Is that so?



Emma: 

Dear child, due to your understanding, you can feel the energy of writing now––––the purple energy you’re reaching––––becomes not only kind, but also much broader.



ZHANG, Cheng: 

Yes, it does, Emma.  Now I seem to be in the purple ocean, the purple deep sea. I have no eyes.  I simply melt in the whole ocean.   I feel my writing…...you might as well say that it is this purple ocean writing.



Emma: 

Right, dear child.  Although I still call you this way, you can feel there’s no real meaning in it.  Because it's the sea that is speaking, only in the form of dialogues.



ZHANG, Cheng: 

Yes, Emma, it is like this. Then please explain, WHAT IS INSIDE ME? 

I can only feel, through all the reflected rays and beauty, the incredible brilliance inside, part of which also seems hidden in the bottom of the sea, and that I cannot see directly. Suppose I can dive deep inside and find the light source, what will it look like then? 

What exactly is it? 

In other words, I am a bit curious now, what exactly is it that I’ve been in touch with?


 

Emma:

My dear child, that is indescribably indescribable. Just a thought to uncover it makes you feel a huge energy to blow you up. The reason why you cannot enter is that your body and mind is not ready yet. Your body and mind cannot accept such a broad and large scale of energy yet.




ZHAGN, Cheng: 

What is that on earth?  Even a little explanation will do.




Emma:

Oh, dear child, that is the explosion of energy, the energy of the birth of the universe. It is the energy that you can explode into a new universe.



ZHANG, Cheng: 

Tell me more.



Emma:

Child, you might as well settle down and feel it now.  Try to get closer.




ZHANG, Cheng: 

I feel that it will blow up my whole mind! 

I can only say that “I will faint”. 

Indeed, I cannot enter. 

There seems to be an invisible wall-----not saying that there’s really such a wall-----but I will lose consciousness because the feeling is too intense. 

I can feel that limit of mine, so I…... I try to open my eyes and look at the beads hanging from the lamp in front of me. The colors of the Chinese knots...... the white in the orange...... others may find it ordinary, but I feel it intensely unbelievable. I can only say: OMG! ! ! It is so incredible, totally beyond comprehension of the human brain.

 


Emma: 

Dear child, I keep hearing your brain asking, “What is this? !”

But we have run short of words because there is no language to describe it.

There is no such thing in the world of languages; how can it be described?

All you can do is describe, but still that cannot satisfy your wants.

If you really want to “know” it, you can only “experience” it.



ZHANG, Cheng: 

Dear Emma, at least I can ask, “Have you all already experienced it?”




Emma: 

Yes, dear child, we have passed that checkpoint.  We have exploded.  We are no longer "We".  We are already "everything"! 

It is this reason that we can become omnipresent beings. 

All the limits we put on ourselves have been blown up. 

And child, one day you will come to that point, which is the program we have been guiding you to enter. 

All the joy you know can be reduced to that very pure point, which is the concentration of unbelievably huge joy. 

With time, you will automatically enter this program. 

To be honest, once you enter this detonating program, there will be no more accidents. 

You will clink, clink, clink through the roads, pass the games as if you have entered some kind of automated program, and then a new universe will come into being! 

You will become countless beautiful stars, but that is not an unconscious universe.  

That will be an incredible, extremely advanced, highly purified consciousness.  

That universe incredibly and gracefully contains a conscious whole that cannot be called “ego”, and you are the whole, but there is"you" no more.

 


ZHANG, Cheng: 

Dear Emma, this is very strange. I am writing something I don't understand yet.




Emma: 

Right, but from another angle, you understand. Because you have tasted a bit of that energy, it’s like, you are somewhere a little far away from the epicenter.  But in your heart you can still feel what I have said.  Your feeling is energetically right, and identical.




ZHANG, Cheng: 

Dear Emma, I’d like to retreat to where normal readers are. For them, can these conversations make sense?




Emma: 

Oh, my dear, many of them can feel the resonance. Like you, they feel they cannot verify or understand these contents by reason, but deep down in their hearts, they seem to be able to understand and sympathize.  Dear child, do not underestimate your readers. Even a person who has rarely read any spiritual book will be attracted by these contents as long as he has a purified energy inside him.




ZHANG, Cheng: 

What is the so-called “purified energy”?




Emma: 

“Purified energy” is that joy of life.  Purified energy is the realization, the knowingness that happiness does not necessarily come from the outer world. Some may not be so good at expressing themselves, but they know things intuitively. Less nervous, they tend to live a simple life.  They do not like to compete with others, and often like to be with nature. You can observe that these people are comfortable and pure.  If they settle down their minds and directly feel the purity in themselves, they will feel that light and that joy.  If they can go deeper in meditation, they will feel the explosive, indescribable, no-mind energy as you’ve said. Among those who read our discussion, some will be attracted.





The significance of these dialogues lies in: to Open UP the Joy of a Cosmic Level, or to Uncover the Secret of the Entire Great Essence. 

This is not a matter of “meaning”; this is an inevitable journey. 

These readers see the contents we are talking about here because they have more consciously started this journey of Back-to-Great-Essence.  

Or they have reached a stage where they will know God more consciously; they will begin the stage of oneness with God. 

This is the reason why you are in such a situation in your life, which may be the envy of many; 

it is not a privilege, but a fact that you have come to this stage in your spiritual journey . 

You will no longer just get rid of your inner worries and fears, and then enjoy an easier and happier life.  

NO!  You know, you have experienced it now, not just like that!  

When you get rid of the worries and fears in your heart, what you win is not just a joyful life.  

You will begin to open the portal to the universe, the portal to the inner Great Essence.  

What you meet is no longer just beautiful flowers or peaceful Kyoto, you will begin to meet God, and then you begin to be one with God.



This journey is inevitable. Many are "sliding" into this journey, and indeed, towards the end, you will find yourselves “sliding” into it more and more,  relaxedly and naturally!  A lot of automated things will appear, so you will be surprised to say, 

“Why do I have this inner ability to feel almost everything in my gaze so beautiful?”  

“Why do so many inspirations or realizations come without effort?”

Gradually, you will literally find many things “Totally Free of Charge”! ^^



ZHANG, Cheng: 

Haha! Dear Emma, you have a good sense of humor.  How wonderful your description is!  “Totally Free of Charge.”  Indeed, at the beginning, life seems very costly. Life is cruel and harsh.  You have to pay for everything. When you can feel life "Totally Free of Charge”, you will find “Life is Awesome!”



Emma: 

Our conversation today is not meant for the so-called “many people”.  

Because, still many can understand, indeed!

Otherwise they will not find this book. 

They will get attracted in terms of energy, and that is a kind of resonance. 

Have no worry about the fact that they do not understand literally because, even you do not understand literally.  

However,  all of you can feel this kind of nonverbal delivery, which is something that will continue to ferment on your life journey. 

Our conversation today, like a piece of enzyme stored in your hearts forever, will constantly inspire insights of secrets for you to understand and uncover in the future.


In fact, the entire book is like this. 

Our conversation is to usher those who are about to truly know God. 

You are someone suitable to talk to because you have just entered this stage, with the most lively, most rookie, most first-hand experiences and questions.

Talking with you as such is the most appropriate for people close to the edge of spirituality. 

Their spiritual journey will go from “Settle the Mind”, “Meditation” and various wonderful experiences to the point of enlightenment of “true understanding of what God is”. 

From that point on, another journey that is more integrated into the Great Essence (unity with God) thus begins.


That is, what’s interesting is: the spiritual journey has two major stages. 

At the first stage, you’ve been experiencing God without fully “understanding” God, or even misunderstanding God. Because you always experience God while imagining God as this or that according to your own needs and beliefs. 

The second stage is the time when you’ve experienced God and begin to truly understand God. 

From this time on, you start to understand what it means by “One Is Everything”.

You have begun the journey of  “Oneness with God”. 

The breakthrough between these two stages is to break down your “perceived knowledge” of God. 

Here is where the watershed lies. 

Enough for today. I think we can start from here in the future.



ZHANG, Cheng: 

Thank you, Emma. I, love, you.



Emma: 

Haha! When you are one with me, then there is nothing but “love”.

The Esoteric Meaning of "Living in the Moment"



JIBOH SHA CAFE, Okazaki Kyoto


"The Esoteric Meaning of LIVING IN THE MOMENT"

22: 51, Feb 22, 2011

How to live in the moment when you are in a bad mood? 

If you are deep in debt, can you still live in the moment?

Emmanuel's answer is again beyond expectation…...



ZHANG, Cheng: 

Dear Emma, calling you this way, I feel the peace of silence...... 

I can't find a word to describe how you come, but you’ve simply come!  

You are not on the left, not on the right, not above or below. 

It’s not correct to say that you are in my heart, either.  

It’s the whole (of you) that simply appears. 

I can’t feel you in a certain “place”, but as a whole, including even my body…... 

and you are not a "you". 

In fact, when I type or think, you may fade away. 

When I pause to feel you, I am speechless... and you permeate.


Dear Emma, that is how I have merged with you.

Since enjoying the moment is the only way to meet the true god, now, I’d like to invite you to talk about the meaning of  "Living in the Moment"? 

How does someone practice opening his heart and enjoying the present moment?


 


Emma: 

Oh, my dear, don’t make the thing seem so difficult.  

In fact, "Living in the Moment" is like the time when you walk out of a hot bath, and you smell good. Ah!  You feel relaxed, nothing in your mind. 

At that time, you only smell the aroma of your skin and the warmth of your red body. 

At that moment, you are doing nothing; you are practicing nothing.  

You are simply relaxing at that moment.




ZHANG, Cheng: 

But if you feel upset and find yourself unable to be pleased, what about that kind of moment?


Emma: 

My dear, your thinking about this problem, with a certain worry in it, gives this problem a sense of importance. This is surely not an "easy" problem. Now that “uneasiness” is right there inside you.  How, then, can you "Live in the Moment"?




ZHANG, Cheng: 

Well…...When asked about this, I was not thinking about how to answer you. I want to feel my state of being first…... and now, I feel a sense of tension; a little anxiety; that is, the "problem consciousness" is in my heart chakra. So how can I live in the moment? I discovered that my so-called "Living in the Moment" refers to a kind of relaxation, with no tension and no uncomfortable feeling in the heart chakra. In other words, when "Living in the Moment" comes to my consciousness, my consciousness has presumed “Living in the Moment” to be something different from my status quo.  So how do I change from the status quo to another state of being? This is the meaning of my question "How to Live in the Moment"..….. And then…. I don’t know how to discuss this issue further; I am stuck.




Emma: 

Relax, dear child, as long as you relax yourself, you can continue.


ZHANG, Cheng:

It’s fun, Emma, I found a contradiction. When you told me to relax, I did, and then I thought I could continue.  But what is it that I should continue?  “To go back to that problem and solve it, is that so?” I asked myself. Then I chuckled. After I relax, I will return to tension, and then solve it from there? It’s strange. If the mind doesn’t return to the "tension" and forces itself to resolve this tension, it will feel that it has learned nothing.  That is, the mind will feel that it has not learned how to deal with a tense situation.  It’s like, now I can feel my mind saying, “No, I don’t think we have solved the problem of ‘How to Live in the Moment When in a Bad Mood’”.  The mind says, “This issue was not discussed, it was just transferred, ignored, skipped.”


 


Emma: 

Alright, child.  When your mind persists in this question, let me ask your mind, 

“Are you not asking me?”

“ Are you not asking a wiser being for guidance?”

“Don’t you want his answer?”


ZHANG, Cheng: 

Yes! I am consulting a higher wisdom. 

I am asking, “How to Live in the Moment When One is in a Bad Mood?”




Emma: 

Right, you are consulting me now, but once you have stated your question, are you not supposed to listen to me carefully? Would you like to listen? Otherwise, what is this dialogue good for?


ZHANG, Cheng: 

Okay, I am willing to listen to you.




Emma: 

Alright.  If you’d like to listen to me, then the "processing" on your part is finished, you would empty yourself and leave it to me now, wouldn’t you?  So, focus on me, next, what answer do you hear? And what do you feel?


ZHANG, Cheng: 

I hear you say, “Relax, child, just relax. And, I really feel a very kind smiling face, I feel that energy of relaxation. 


Then, I see my mind still resisting, and it wants to say, ‘But…... it seems that the problem has not been solved yet.’”




Emma: 

Dear child, now you must decide whether you continue to describe your question or you feel my answer.  And this answer contains not just words, but the energy behind it. But obviously you have experienced the fact: as long as you continue to describe your problem, you will not be listening, but as long as you listen, you will lose the problem you are trying to describe.



ZHANG, Cheng: 

Yes, but for the mind, "losing the described problem" solves no problem.




Emma: 

My dear child, what you say is still a description of the mind, isn’t it?


ZHANG, Cheng: 

Yes, it is.


Emma: 

Don’t you realize that as long as you describe your mind, you will immediately have feelings of anxiety that "the problem is not solved"?


ZHANG, Cheng: 

Yes, I do.




Emma: 

The frequency of this mind is different from the frequency you feel when you let go of yourself and listen to me, right?


ZHANG, Cheng: 

Right.  Now I am going to feel you…... Dear Emma, I love you…... I can feel a completely different frequency. Your part is like spring. If I stand by your side, I can instantly type these words with a smile. There is no problem at all here with you . It’s exactly the sense of lightness after shower, relieving fatigue of the day. Comfortable and brisk. Nothing on my mind.  Filled with joy, so I don't think of any problem at all.





Emma: 

What to do? My child, so could you tell? 

"Problems" cannot be solved,  either there’s a problem or there’s no problem. 

In the realm of the mind, if you always have a problem consciousness and describe the problem, think about it and explore it, you may think you are trying to solve it, but YOU ARE NOT. 

You have become "problem consciousness" itself. 

By describing it, you become it! 

The inherent quality of problem consciousness is the perception that the problem is not solved. 

You plan to describe the problem first, and then solve it, but NOTE here something subtle.  As you describe it, you become it! It's like when an actor plays the role of a depression victim, he must go into depression. You go into depression first, and then think in depression, do you think there will be a way out? In the same way, when you have feelings of anxiety and insist that this problem is a very reasonable problem and must be resolved, you are using logic to convince yourself to seize this feeling of anxiety.  This is what you are doing.



ZHANG, Cheng: 

So, dear Emma, how do we live in the moment when we are in a bad mood?


Emma: 

My dear, when you are in a bad mood, try to stop describing any problem, including “How to live in the moment?” because you are using this sentence to “describe” that you “do have” this problem, you “do have” this difficulty at the moment.  Then, my dear, the more you paint, the more things get darker.

 


ZHANG, Cheng: 

Let me give you an example. For instance, you just got scolded by someone, which provoked your uncomfortable feeling. If you haven’t read any book on spiritual development, then it’s quite alright. If you have read such a book, the following is how you would describe your discomfort in this moment, 

1. I was scolded. 

2. I cannot relax at this moment. I cannot live in the moment. This means that I have read the book, but I don’t really understand it. 


If you are just a reader, it’ll be okay. If you are a writer of spiritual growth books, then you would describe it, like 

1. I was scolded. 

2. It is true that I know nothing about living in the moment, or else why I live in unpleasant memories. 

3. I write spiritual growth books myself.  I get emotional easily, what should I teach others? I am a fake.


If you write spiritual growth books, it’s not the worst. 

In case you are once enlightened, then it would be even miserable. 

You may add a fourth stab, “What enlightenment am I enlightened to?”  

So you will become unhappier. Your description will make you feel heavier.



Emma: 

Dear children, asking is not a good way to solve problems.


ZHANG, Cheng: 

Haha, Emma, without perception, one may continue to ask, “Then what is a good way to solve problems?”


Emma: 

Ha! child, now you know this is a trap.


ZHANG, Cheng: 

Yes, now I am not even inclined to say, “So if I encounter problems in the future, I should…....”




Emma: 

Right.  When you talk about a "problem", you have already had a problem consciousness, in which there is no way to get rid of it. The best way to enjoy life is not to see the status quo as a problem.


ZHANG, Cheng: 

If I am in debt, I would have to work hard to repay the debt every day.  But I don't want to live this way. Isn't that a problem? How can we not see this suffering as a problem?


Emma: My dear child, a very good question.  But would you like to enter me and first feel how I see it.


ZHANG, Cheng: 

Dear Emma, I got an amazing answer. I found that my whole existence only says one sentence, “I HAVE NO DEBT!”


 


Emma: 

Dear child, when you enter me––––that is, your great essence; your deeper nature––––you will know well that “I HAVE NO DEBT”. Your existence; your true essence has no debt.  It has only deep peace, which has nothing to do with it all.  You have no debt at all. Do you know…...  Simply knowing deeply that you are not in debt is a great emotional release. And if a person can often enter his great essence—––that is, his divinity, then God will begin to lead how he pays off his debt in the material world. Your mind can never think of these ways and rhythms, in which a "blissful debt-paying life" emerges.



ZHANG, Cheng: 

Haha! “A blissful debt-paying life” is nearly beyond human imagination.


Emma: 

Yes, only God dares to think! In a situation you consider to be the most negative, God dares to have the most optimistic thoughts. Well, this is why God is God! So, why not join the kingdom of God? What will you lose?  What will be missing is just some “precious problems”!


ZHANG, Cheng: 

Dear Emma, thank you for your presence, I love you and I love myself, too.  

I celebrate and appreciate such vibrations.  

Dear Emma, thank you! My love.  Good night!
