To Frank: The difference between Pure Awareness,

EuStillness and EuFeeling

on: October 10, 2014, 03:36:04 AM
Alfred,

I'm reading last Frank' book - When Nothing Works - and I'm
puzzled with the difference between 3 concepts that seem
to mean the same thing: Pure Awareness (PA) Nothing and
now EuStillness. PA is the awareness of Nothing and
EuStillness is the awareness of...stillness, but stillness is
Nothing. So all are the same. Or not? If not what is the
difference? A difference of degree?
My confusion increases when Frank says PA experience is
not the objective. But PA experience is the experience of
Nothing, right?
And the book is about Nothing.
Maybe Frank is telling us that it is possible to go BEYOND
Eufeeling to the deeper perception of EuStillness. Ok. But
what is the difference between EuStillness and PA?
====================================================

"NOTHING IS PURE AWARENESS"

============================
"EuStillness IS THE QUIETNESS, THE RESTFULNESS THAT
EXISTS AND CONNECTS EVERYTHING IN THE PHYSICAL
UNIVERSE''
=============================
EUFEELING ARE THE EUPHORIC EMOTIONS THAT BUBBLES UP
WHEN YOU EXPERIENCE EuStillness "
============================
THE 3 STATES ARE JUST DEEPER LEVELS OF THE SAME
STATE, FROM EUFEELING TO EUSTILLNESS TO NOTHING OR
PURE AWARENESS
===================================================

Hi Edu-I can see how you can have some confusion between the
three, pure awareness, EuStillness, and Eufeeling. You are asking
about the most refined, second most refined, and third most refined
perceptions we have. It's not at all like determining the difference
between apples, oranges, and grapes. Let me see if I can't help
unravel it for you.
Pure awareness is unknowable. Our minds grasp only that which has
boundaries, form and energy. Pure awareness has neither. Now let
me remind you of the prism analogy. Pure awareness is the pure
light, EuStillness is the first bending of pure light, and Eufeeling the
initial colors. EuStillness is a little like the convection or heat waves
produced when you look across the sands of a desert. When the air
is cool you see through it without distortion. That is analogous to
perceiving pure awareness. When it heats up you can "see" the air by
the way it distorts the objects you are observing. This should help you
understand the relationship between pure awareness and
EuStillness. Pure awareness is transforming into a more solid form of
itself. As EuStillness continues to warm further it creates greater
distortion and you begin to see forms in the in the undulations of
EuStillness. This would be analogous to mirages, objects that are
seen but do not really exist as they are perceived. This should give
you a more complete idea of the relationship between EuStillness
and Eufeeling.
The value of perceiving pure awareness, EuStillness, and Eufeeling
is that of greater harmony, health, and joy in our lives. Until now, this
technology was thought to be difficult, beyond the reach of all but the
most dedicated spiritual aspirants. QE and EuStillness have proven

that wrong. The fact that you are even asking this question shows a
highly refined degree of perception. Well done Edu

Edu -- I see that I forgot to address your concern over "nothing".

Nothing, as far as the mind is concerned is pure awareness. Certainly
"nothing" could easily be synonymous with pure awareness.
However, when it comes to teaching the perception of EuStillness
(the EuStillness Technique), the concept of "nothing" is less functional
and more confusing. So it boils down to a matter of language and

how "nothing" is perceived. Although "nothing" and "stillness" are

essentially the same they are perceived differently and so must be
treated differently in the teaching of the EuStillness Technique. I
guess to answer your question, intellectually treat "nothing" and
"stillness" the same realizing that your brain perceives them
differently.

Thank you, Frank. I undertsand and now practice will clarify all.

Frank, it's great to have you sharing your wisdom on the forum!! I
have a question along this vein, the answer to or pondering on which
might lead to clarity or further insights: I've been carrying the
assumption that LIFE, BEING, and PURE AWARENESS are different
names for and perspectives on the same fundamental state of nonexistence. Is that the idea? I won't use the term "consciousness",
because it falls outside the clear definitions within the Kinslow
System, and there are too many preconceptions about what it means.
If we understand that all of Creation issues from its source of Pure
Awareness, which is absent of time, space, mass, location,
perspective, or perception (and therefore limitless), then the idea of
"nothing" (i.e. mind perceiving no object, therefore a assuming a void)
is just how the mind categorizes PA. Rather than being synonymous
with PA, "nothing" is a description of the mind's blind spot for anything
that does not have form and location.
I notice a sense of feeling more "alive" when I am aware of Eufeeling
and Eustillness, and I reflect on what seems to happen when I'm

aware of pure awareness as dis-identifying from form. Does that

make sense? Everything seems to have disappeared in that moment
of perceiving into the gap between objects of perception (thoughts or
sensations), or into the source beyond them, and when I am able to
reflect, I have this sense of DEEP RELIEF AN FULFILLMENT, like
"Oh yeah, I must have temporarily forgotten that ALL IS WELL.
Ahh! :)." I'm not so much wondering whether my experience is
"right" or "wrong": I know it simply IS. It's this underlying assumption
or insight that I'm led to that PA is INDIVISIBLE LIFE and BEING
--nothing more or less-- that I'm wondering about. Is that consistent
with your understanding? If that is so, then could one way to think of
Eustillness be as the first perception of the first reflection of PA in
Creation: the initial stillness from which all movement issues? I seem
to perceive eufeelings as facets of our uncomplicated, natural state
when we are grounded in our source while engaged in (at some level)
but detached from the phenomenal world. By "detached from", I
mean, not attached by insecurity.
Boy, this is not easy to write about! So glad you have it down so well
and in a way that allows us to eventually connect the dots from
experience when we do the techniques!
I am so looking forward to taking time out to reconnect with you and
other QE lovers in person, sharing QE and going deeper into these
experiences with your guidance!
Blessings,
Alfred

Please don't be concerned about any confusion you might have over
the difference between Eufeeling, EuStillness, and pure awareness.
In essence, they can only be grasped by the mind in the most
abstract way. It is our habit, since we live in the sensory world of
objects and ideas that we try to define, and therefore control these
abstractions. We can only truly know them through our perception, or
more accurately our lack of perception of them. They defy intellectual
scrutiny. That said, let's sally forth brandishing not our intellects but
rather a playful sense of exploration. In other words guys let's have a
little fun. Our intellects will catch up in due course.
The whole idea of nothing (pure awareness) becoming something will
never make sense but that will be our working hypothesis. All major
religions seem to feel the same, "in the beginning was the void",
And so on. The closest physics comes to this idea is the vacuum
state or zero point where the potential for creation exists but has not
yet been expressed, the lowest possible point of energy. I think it is
the point in a simple sine wave where the wave is no longer going up
but has not yet started down. At any rate, there is still some
semblance of form and energy in zero point so it cannot be pure
awareness. Pure awareness has no energy and no form.
I like Alfreds phrasing that nothing is the minds blind spot for the
formless. However, I think we can use nothing as a synonym for pure
awareness and get away with it. As I mentioned before, when form
completely dissolves nothing is the result. When energy completely
dissipates EuStillness (absolute stillness) is the result. So lets
consider all three, pure awareness, nothing, and EuStillness, as the
same thing and start from there. And while Im thinking about it, the
Mirage analogy, while accurate on one level may not be the best way
to understand the relationship between pure awareness, EuStillness
and Eufeeling. I have been looking for a way to teach this concept for
several decades but I am almost convinced that our minds just
cannot grasp this simple concept. Nothing, pure awareness, takes
form and yet remains formless. Here is how I presented it in chapter
14, How to Not-Know, in Beyond Happiness some years back
Why would Nothing want to appear as something, as the phenomenal
world? Because It could. If Nothing could appear as something but
did not do so then it would not be living up to Its potential. Nothing
would be incomplete. It would be partially empty and we already
know that Nothing is not empty. On the other hand, if it really became

something it would no longer be Nothing. What a quandary for

Nothing. How could It be something and still be empty? Or, how could
it not be something and not be empty? So how did Nothing avoid the
oblivion of emptiness and still not become something? It appeared to
be something it wasnt. This is how the master Magician has pulled
the wool over our eyes for all these many millennia. Few have seen
through the illusion. For the rest of us this simple trick has withstood
the test of time. (Pun intended.)
Our perception and our understanding are at odds with reality. Reality
in this case being pure awareness. They are forms and pure
awareness is formless and nary the twain shall meet. At least that is
how it appears to both the classical physicist and the quantum
mechanical physicist. But there is the third interpretation introduced in
the quote above, completely nonsensical and beyond common
experience. That will be the starting point for my attempt to explain
and unite the three; pure awareness, EuStillness, and Eufeeling.
When pure light strikes a prism its pure light vibration is altered at first
a little and then much more to form the seven basic colors. When
pure awareness creates, it first becomes a primal vibration and then
the infinite vibration/forms of phenomenal creation. Of course, all
forms are nothing but pure awareness. We normally do not perceive
a rock as pure awareness. We see the form and we label it and stick
it away somewhere in the back of our mind as rock: been there done
that. But if we could look absolutely into the infinity of the rock we
would find pure awareness. Thats what the EuStillness Technique
cultures in our awareness.
The nothing technique would eventually do the same thing but would
take much, much longer to realize pure awareness in the things and
thoughts of the phenomenal world. Perception of EuStillness quickly
cultures the realization that pure awareness is all-permeating. It really
is quite amazing.
Now back to our prism analogy. Pure awareness is of course
analogous to the pure light. Pure awareness (and here comes the
incomprehensible part) is also the first movement or bending of itself
before it takes on the more recognizable form of Eufeeling, which is
also pure awareness. Even though EuStillness is also pure
awareness I also identify this first bending of pure awareness as
EuStillness simply as a matter of convention, a teaching tool. That
first movement is somehow a link between non-movement and the

more concrete form and movement of the rest of creation. When we

perceive that first movement, EuStillness, we readily recognize the
non-movement of pure awareness within the objects of perception.
So in a nutshell, pure awareness, nothing, and EuStillness are all the
same but I also use EuStillness to refer to the first subtle warming up
of pure awareness before it solidifies into thought and corporeal form.
This is helpful for the student as it forms a perceptual bridge between
non--knowable pure awareness and the world he is familiar with.
Eufeeling, of course, is the first manifestations of EuStillness, the
colors of our inner essence, still universal but on their way to
becoming individual expressions of you and me.
Gads, I had a one paragraph answer in mind when I started this
Anyway I hope this doesnt scare off the right-brainers out there but
this sure has been fun.
good to hear from you Alfred...K sends her howdy.

It is so nice to have the Kinslow's Korner where we can directly hear
from Frank. I have been too busy with my Japanese group that I
wasn't even aware that Frank started up this Korner. Thank you,
Frank and Triangulation.
After attending the Art of Stillness workshops in Japan, it is a general
consensus that many of the Japanese QEers were already doing the
Stillness techniques naturally. It also seems easier for them to accept
the 'nothing' concept without much discussion and the progression of
everything that comes out of that nothing, and how this nothing is
permeating through everything.

To me, the prism analogy is very clear and most useful in explaining
this progression. How there is a progression, yet what permeates
through all of them is PA.
I also experienced that it is easier to perceive EuStillness with your
eyes open at times than your eyes closed. Mind you, when I do
EuMed, I have my eyes closed. But when your eyes are open, why,
you become aware of EuStillness EVERYWHERE!
As in Nothing Technique, you become aware of EuStillness between
your thoughts, objects, spaces, and throughout them all.
Then, there is no need for explanation. You already experienced them
all.
Thank you, Frank, again for bringing this difficult to explain subject, to
a very practical level of experiencing. ;)
Love and appreciation,
Miri

Hi Alfred,
It was good to be with you again in Kirchzarten. Thanks for giving us
a hand. I wonder if what I taught during the Eufeeling Intensive

workshop will answer your question about EuStillness being the first
perception of the first reflection of pure awareness in creation? You
are right to think in this way, seeing EuStillness as the first reflection
of pure awareness, but EuStillness is also just plain ol pure
awareness. have brought up indivisible life, being, and pure
awareness, and I might add nothing as well. All are synonyms for
pure awareness. But to our minds, and this is very important to
realize, the nonexistence of pure awareness has no value so our
minds keep looking for some value, something to hold onto in an
effort to understand something that cant be understood. There is
always going to be confusion because our minds want to make pure
awareness (indivisible life, being, nothing, Eufeeling, EuStillness,
etc.) a thing to be manipulated, to be grasped and wielded like a
hammer against the head of a nail. This just aint agonna happen!
EuStillness is both unbounded, pure awareness and its first
manifestation in our minds. Remember the analogy of the prism.
When light strikes the prism it bends before it breaks into the colors of
the rainbow. EuStillness is the pure light and its first bending before it
becomes the expressions (peace, joy, love, bliss) of Eufeeling.
How can EuStillness be both pure awareness and its first
manifestation? That is because EVERYTHING is pure awareness in
essence. A rock, a rock star, and a rocket are all pure awareness in
essence. It doesnt matter how many names we attach to pure
awareness we will never understand it. In fact the more things we call
pure awareness the more muddied our perception of it can become.
You may boo me off the forum for what I am about to say but our
minds cannot really know anything in its entirety. Of course on the
absolute level that is because it cannot know pure awareness from
which everything is made. But even on the level of the object itself we
are not able to know anything completely. When you look at a rock
you might think you know it, be able to classify it and stick it away
with other rocks in the back of your mind but there is more to a rock
than our senses, and even our scientific or psychic investigation can
reveal. Of course a rock has its outer appearance but it also has its
molecular structure, its atomic structure, subatomic structure, wave
structure and its infant actions and reactions with every other created
thing on every other level of creation. Complete knowledge is an
illusion. That is why Nisargatta so strongly confirmed that,
Knowledge is ignorance. Somewhere along the path you just have
to let go of the idea that anything can be understood in its entirety

and pure awareness, or any of its synonyms can not be understood in

any way. This is the final realization by such philosophical systems as
advaita vedanta.
The value of Eufeeling or EuStillness or pure awareness is not in our
understanding of it but indeed our perception (or lack thereof) of it.
This is why QE works so incredibly fast. We leave behind all of the
philosophical bindings, emotional shackles, physical labors, beliefs,
hopes, and varied other trappings, in favor of pure perception. There
is a certain peace, or should I say certain peace when one
surrenders to the reality that our minds ego driven minds cannot
provide the ultimate experience.
I hope this helps Alfred By the way thanks for your gracious review

you all to share your insights and impressions about your readings of
