    ‎1. “I encourage all to have FUN! Fun is profound, not frivolous. Fun is moving on & on & on with a twinkle instead of a twitch…”

    2. “I think it’s helpful for people to realize they are ALWAYS in the NOW. There is this “trying” to live in the ‘now” & that in itself causes suffering. Your body is always is the Now, isn’t it? Your breath is always in the Now, isn’t it? It’s ONLY our “thoughts” that question being in the Now, trying to “get there”. That’s a common ILLUSION of today – trying to be in the NOW. Forget it! Your Nature IS NOW!”

    4. “UNHAPPY? Wait til you discover you don’t even exist & are an unfathomable INFINITE bundle of energetic thoughts, feelings & matter moving in & out of space. Hey dudes & duddettes you’re a bunch of mirage reflections on a cosmic screen trying to figure out the images you see, as you appear and dissappear in pixalated formations. If that doesn’t BLOW your mind & get you out of your funk, I don’t know what will!”

    5. “Darlings, Wake Up! You’re tripping…living in misery and drugged on possibilities. Your only real hope is to STOP HOPING and be WHERE YOU ARE AT!….then watch things change as they naturally bring hope and new possibilities”

    6. Q:
    Dvorahji, It is hard to ‘swallow’ that enlightenment is my nature. I know it’s so obvious, but I am where I am…–DJ

    A:
    Darling, that’s why seekers are still in misery, searching for enlightenment. It’s just tooooooo simple to believe that this “THING” that all the saints and gurus and organizations and practices and discipline and yoga masters hermits & yadayadayada blahblahblah whatever, have been talking about is SOMETHING SO SIMPLE!!!!! SO OBVIOUS!!!

    The mind wants something special very very intricate and intelligent and oh-so special. BUT THIS IS A DIFFERENT TIME & PLACE. You do not have to be crucified like Jesus, or be thrown out of the country and die being harassed like Osho. You can just – STOP…and move with the flow of WHAT IS.

    IT IS you nature, ENLIGHTENMENT/PEACE/LOVE simple, simple simple awareness. ENLIGHTENMENT IS YOUR NATURE. IF WE COULD JUST RELAX and notice that what is tripping you up is your own thoughts, pretending they’re IT or YOU…when they are just passing through YOU. You are not your thoughts, you are not your feelings, YOU ARE EVERYTHING…

    SIT DOWN, take a deep breath in and now quickly let it out! AND THERE YOU ARE. Peace. STill, IT, SPACE and then????? Here comes a thought and another and another and a feeling, and a hoping and YOU HAVE ALREADY FORGOTTEN YOUR NATURE….but IT IS STILL HERE, HAPPY AS CAN BE! IT is very very very very simple.”.

    Love you all my darlings, your friend, Dvorah-gee!

  • ‎2012 is a “5” year……that means lotS of travel, lots of adventure, lots of knowledge and lots of FIVES!! HAHAHAHAHHA…….I encourage you not to listen to all the 2012 hype and JUST BE HAPPY. MOVE along with your life, your plan, your fun & don’t worry about ALL this nonsense.

  • I don’t know why teachers/preachers/New Age Healers are always talking about BECOMING a “new Mature Enlightened” person. Someday we’ll all heal ourselves of all diseases. We ONLY have to contact our Source/whatever! Do you realize how stupid/IGNORANT this mumbo jumbo is? SOURCE IS YOUR NATURE & baby U R NOT becoming anything but that gorgeous creature THAT U ARE! Relax trying to keep it all together…Watch it change & dissolve into SOURCE. Relax w/this “betta betta betta ahhhhh” nonsense.

      • Dvorahji Dvorah Adler Betta (from the beatles songs) refers to the Body. There is a belief that “food & enlightenment” somehow go together and THEY DON’T! Apples & oranges. Just like path & enlightenment also DON’T equate…………It’s true that a healthy body & mind “can” in some cases help you settle down more, but still all that gives you is the experience of “deep silence” maybe deep enough to call “samadhi” AT TIMES. BUT STILL-that doesn’t pull the switch that says: AHHHHHHH! I GOT IT! AND I GOT IT PERMANENTLY. LOVE, ENLIGHTENMENT, GOD, IS MY NATURE. PERIOD.

        Usually you intellectually know it’s your nature. You’ve experienced “something” that says IT’S YOUR NATURE. But really you just don’t “grok” it. You really still “wonder” whether IT’S YOU NATURE………………SO from my perspective (for bill)………health, vegetarianism, healers, cleaning auras, healing traumas, changing your thinking, meditation, asanas, retreats, being positive or negative or just plain stupid or brilliant DOES NOT LEAD TO ENLIGHTENMENT (being fully at peace with THIS/HERE/WHATEVER)

        I know that Maharishi structured 3 states of consciousness and there are 7 states of consciousness and in Vasistha there is a criteria even for the 7 states of consciousness. But for me it’s ONE BIG WTF AND WHO CARES………………there is THIS/HERE/THAT and then there is everything else that is contained in THIS/HERE/THAT. And EVERYTHING ELSE (all this knowledge) is very very very very very misleading. ONLY words to be interpreted as paths and techniques etc etc and they lead to BUBKIS! Interesting, exciting, gives you something to “think” and pray and hope about” but still BUBKIS.

        So as Maharishi would say: “what to do?”……..Well what can you do? Really? What can you do? Are you going to stop reading, hoping, meditating, being a vegetarian, drinking hot water with lemon????? Hell no! You will continue with what you’re doing, thinking you know something, being as positive as you can, helping people, talking about consciousness and the 3 states or 7 states, teaching the knowledge and thennnnnnnnnnnnnn one day, you’ll turn into a maniac and say: HEY FOLK! IT’S ALL BUBKIS! and no one will believe you cause they’re going for the Diamond mind STILL NOT REALIZING that THIS DIAMOND MIND is YOUR NATURE.

        So do what you do (what else can you do)! Teach what you teach, heal what you heal and tell the world about peace/whatever. Build peace palaces and ashrams and have a good time. After all what else are you going to do? Really???

        Because somewhere in the back of your head/mind you “think”: “I bettaaaaaa keep doing this or the Big shoe is going to drop on my head cause I didn’t meditate today or screamed at my mother. I’m HERE to testify, that THE BIG SHOE is going to drop on your head anyway! SO HAVE FUN DOING WHAT YOU DO! hahahahahhahahahahahahahaahhahaahhahahahahaha

  • Joe Black (death taking a holiday) says he’s lonely & wants to play in the world. A wise woman waiting to die says: “…We’re all lonely here too. If we’re lucky we take some nice pictures w/us…”
    LOOK darlings, we’re all deeply lonely whether saint or sinner. Loneliness is part of the human condition. Relax-DISSOLVE into loneliness & open to AWE. It’s an unbelievable life & HERE YOU ARE flowing along like everything else.

        December 26, 2011 at 5:50pm · 

      • Dvorahji Dvorah Adler Loneliness wants company, it’s company that we miss really, playing with others like us and having fun. When you dissolve into that “feeling” you see very clearly HERE YOU ARE and there’s really “noone” to be lonely. But the human “experience” is this “loneliness” and our story about it.

      • Dvorahji Dvorah Adler if you always Have the tv or music on, playing with your iphone or ipad or virtual reality game, texting and tweeting & eating & drinking & sleeping – WHO HAS TIME TO HAVE THE EXQUISITE FEELING OF BEING LONELY?…Loneliness can lead you to such bliss, if you give it a chance…….It can purify your entire body & mind as you give in to YOU YOU YOU……it’s cool. Try it. Turn everything off for a day and see what happens….and let me know…..

    The question here isn’t: “There are dreams, how do we see them?” The real question is “where do dreams come from?” …and the subconscious is not the answer, because then the question is: “Where does the subconscious comes from?” NO ONE knows anything about dreams NADA!……………However if the scientist could eventually turn that device on themselves, and…See More

      • Casey Hanebuth I know something about dreams, dont you? Doesn’t necessarily mean anything, but I experience them on some conscious plane somehow equally as I do on this plane. If one experience doesn’t exist than neither does. Science generally pulls the pin out of the grenade to study and analyze the pin to see how it makes such an explosion happen, while the live grenade sits patiently on their desk. I wonder if dreams aren’t much different. Including this one. What does one do when they realize there is a live grenade in their mind? (put the pin back in, well that’s not science, haha). Besides my 2nd sentence this is all speculation.
        PS Ive gotten a few people to believe 🙂 As you have as well.

      • Merryl Feldman I can recall some of my dreams at times, and they seem to reflect, at least symbolically, my frustrations and fears…and sometimes desires. Sometimes a person that is departed, that I miss, will visit me in a dream. I LOVE those dreams.

        December 18, 2011 at 2:34pm · 

      • Casey Hanebuth Yes, simply amazing stuff. I wonder about Einstein’s E=MC2 and Constantines ‘conversion to christianity’. Supposidly, both started out as dreams, but the effects of those dreams is astounding.

      • Casey Hanebuth ‎..astounding to me in my life right now…what is the difference between these prophetic dreams and my every nite dreams. Ha, I don’t see much of one except they chose to act on those dreams here rather than passively letting them go.

        Funny thing…My friend Eileen died yesterday morning…Gorgeously fabulous woman who actually “got me” and loved me anyway! hahahahahah………woke up this morning (not knowing she’d passed and automatically started visualizing her life and how I remembered her in various stages of her life. She was an incredible opera singer and I remember her in that authoritative gorgeous voice doing an aria, so regal………she taught TM for ages, she started meditating when she about 16….really a loving darling…..I watched her life pass by me like a dream….

        And this is how it is……….a dream came and went and left only a loving FLAVOR BEHIND…..beautiful reallly………

      • Dvorahji Dvorah Adler I was just reading part of Steve Jobs book…….he was a zen guy that let him use his intuition but his personality left a lot to be desired (authoritative, rude, obnoxious, and “my way or the high
        way kinda guy)…..I KNEW THERE WAS A REASON I LIKED HIM. Some people just have to do it their way or it doesn’t get done. People really are different REALLLLLY!. SOME people just are rude and zen at the same time…..so accepting yourself as you are is a ZEN ACCOMPLISHMENT (cause everybody wants you to be nice)….and for some of us – SOMETIMES IT’s TOUGH!

  • The criteria for Enlightenment IS (in some Spiritual organizations) THAT:
    “When you experience SILENCE alongside of ACTIVITY all the time-U R ENLIGHTENED.”
    Now this CONCEPT IS RIDICULOUS! Because SILENCE is your nature. U can’t help but experience silence with all your activity. IT’S WHO YOU ARE.
    U ARE SILENCE and A
    ctivity HAPPENS. They naturally CO-EXIST. There is NO criteria for enlightenment. ENLIGHTENMENT IS UR NATURE..relax

      • Stephanie Schlegel 
        To me…enlightenment means to experience something as it comes…where patience is just as critical as silence…but you also have to do what your nature calls for…for me…. Many feelings arise through this feeling…some are to be felt while others lead me to gaze…the silence offers one to feel what is stirring up within…while letting it happen…so I agree…silence is a natural occurrence if you let it be just what it is.
        Like a phone call…you need to stay silent to let the information in before you disturb it through thought….mental silence is
        Is also silence as you can’t be preoccupied by thought when information is coming in…ü.

      • Dvorahji Dvorah Adler I’ve always felt that I was an example of a perfectly IMPERFECT person who ended up LOVING HERSELF & OTHERS while displaying the most infantile/eccentric/outrageous characteristics all her life. Now with this IMPERFECT personality I still raised WONDERFUL/HAPPY/CREATIVE/PRODUCTIVE kids who do LOVE themselves and others and are also totally obnoxious and generously kind & wonderful ALL AT THE SAME TIME.

        ONE of my kids told me I was “narcissistic, selfish, self-centered, listen to no one and graceless!!…….Well guess what??? That’s all true!!!! andddddd I’m also loving, adorable, generous and elegant! All in the same body!!!

        LOOK DARLINGS, WE ARE who WE ARE. Yes, our personalities may change here and there but basically U R a Scorpio or a Leo or a Sag or a Virgo. You kinda retain these various characteristics plus we’re ALL HUMANELY NUTS! So I repeat: If I can love myself and accept myself and find PEACE with this crazy body and mind – U CAN TOO! CELEBRATE, CELEBRATE, CELEBRATE your UNIQUE PERFECTLY/IMPERFECT SELVES and EVERYTHING you have to offer in the brief time you’re going to hang out HERE. ♥

      • Dvorahji Dvorah Adler Guru’s are a funny breed, you tend to look up to them (if they carry your particular magic)…….so when they encourage your individuality, i.e. let you tell jokes, laugh histerically at your personality and let you display it! Mention you in a talk, tell people how wonderfully crazy you are…..IT TENDS to give you confidence in your personality, in YOU, EXACTLY AS YOU ARE. Sri Sri did that for me…..Others have tried to keep me more “godly”…….He appreciated me exactly as I am. And that was a true gift and encouraged me to show my own “spiritual” colors.

  • Spiritual teachers/people are just as sure/defensive about their spiritual beliefs/practices as everyone else. Tell someone it’s all nonsense & ENLIGHTENMENT/LOVE IS YOUR NATURE & they start telling U everything U need to “know” in order to think/do the RIGHT thing & Dvorahji says: GIVE IT A BREAK! LOVE IS YOUR NATURE…relax w/all UR knowledge.

    “Next time I’ll do it better, Next time it’s going “my way”-I’ve got a handle on it & thennnnnnnnnnn they screw up again blaming themselves for being so stupid. AND I say for the MILLIONTH TIME: IF IT COULD BE DIFFERENT BABY, IT WOULD BE DIFFERENT…so relax.

Sometimes U’VE got to call a spade a spade. Yes I love you, NO I don’t want to spend time with you. Yes, I’ll be there if you need me & NONONO, I don’t agree with all UR spiritual Bullsh*t! Doesn’t mean UR wrong, just means I got my own shtick going. This constant communication to see other’s point of view is RIDICULOUS. I HAVE MINE, I HONOR YOURS, NOW GO AWAY! LOL

Ask Dvorahji: What should I do

Blog

Hi dvorahji; 
I am 18 years old but i look like a 15 years old girl ,,,,, my height is too short ,,,, and i feel very bad about it ,,,, people keep sayng things like ,,,, oh u r there sorry i could nt see u ,,, it is very hurting ,,,, even my boy friend thinks i am too short ,,,,, then I feel very bad ,,,, what should i do ? u know what i have tried a lot of things to increase my height but nothing works 🙁
Darling girl:
I don’t know if you’ve seen my “shut Up Video” or some of my other videos, but really you need to watch them. Go to my website or page dvorahji.com…..One day you’ll have to ACCEPT YOURSELF EXACTLY AS YOU ARE with no apologies or rationalization to anyone about your height, weight, hair WHATEVER….
Your 18 years old now, it’s time to stop wanting to please everyone and JUST BE YOURSELF-happily; because YOU ARE THE ONE who’s going to live with yourself for the rest of your life….SO PLEASE… STOP this “I’m not tall enough nonsense” Stop this “I’m feeling bad” nonsense…there are people out there who would JUST LOVE TO LOOK JUST LIKE YOU….Tell your boyfriend he’s an idiot and tell him to find a taller girl if he wants one……..YOU GO OUT THERE PROUD OF YOUR beautiful HEALTHY BODY AND MIND and HAVE SOME FUN – instead of worrying about this NONSENSE….
Your beautiful, your lucky and you have a good life…relax and have FUN! Sri Sri loves you, I love you, The Divine loves you and made you in his image…GET OVER IT! AND HAVE SOME FUN! Try this new mantra I’m giving you – use it when you need it:
” If It Could Be Different – IT Would Be Different!”

Bye bye and keep spiritually hopping along…HAVE FUN!

By the way Prasant, HE called your name too, or you wouldn’t be sitting there in front of him……..the problem for devotees is they are always begging FOR NO GOOD REASON really. They’ve got it all taken care of and still they ask others for blessings or guidance. GRACE IS YOUR NATURE or you wouldn’t be breathing- Love is YOUR NATURE, or you …See More

Dvorahji Final Guide For The Spiritually Challenged & Confused 

Anyone who has a Guru, and trusts that Guru (YOUR NATURE) completely needs to relax with life, because the job is already done……HOWEVER…IF you keep wanting more and more and more and gimme gimme gimme and bless me bless me, bless me, then forget about it! Because you’ve gained nothing but another human idol to worship and ask that idol to make life go “your way” so you can get what you want. IT’S A WASTE OF A GOOD GURU.

I would encourage all of my friends, who have Gurus, they fully trust…to give the “blessing gimme thing” a rest”. With full confidence and a full heart know THAT EVERYTHING IS TAKEN CARE OF and that you are ALREADY blessed and the job is done. Relax…

the Illusion of NOW…

Blog

 I think it’s helpful for people to realize they are ALWAYS in the NOW. There is this “trying” to live in the ‘now” & that in itself causes suffering. Your body is always is the Now, isn’t it? Your breath is always in the Now, isn’t it? It’s ONLY our “thoughts” that question being in the Now, trying to “get there”. That‘s a common ILLUSION of today – trying to be in the NOW. Forget it! Your Nature IS NOW….

Dvorahji Final Guide For The Spiritually Challenged & Confused 

Hi David…and of course the JOKE IS – everybody’s challenged & confused especially when they “think” they have the answers! And people, especially spiritual people who’ve been doing this spiritual/enlightenment trip for a long time and can talk about it really well, think they have all the answers…

.It’s a BIG I DON’T KNOW FEST! Once you really “get that” in a BIG WAY…YOU can finally accept your life as it shows up and be happy with WHAT IS…

My original title was “Final Guide for the Spiritually Challenged, Confused & Miserable! and of course people got offended, no one wants to see themselves as miserable (no humor!)

Lord I don’t know why…life certainly can be miserable especially for Seekers! I certainly still get miserable, I just don’t care…It doesn’t bother me for some reason – and it doesn’t hold me – I just move along to the next moment which amazingly enough can turn blissful to distraction…..EVERYTHING AND I MEAN EVERY THING COMES & GOES…If you observe your life you will see that it’s a passing dog & pony show and you happen to be the barker…really astounding…

Dvorahji Final Guide For The Spiritually Challenged & Confused 

what’s interesting to me about calling it a “joke on us”…is that we usually don’t take very kindly to this Cosmic joke. There is a saying:
“the truth will set you free, but it will piss you off first!!” …..and that was certainly my experience.

When I first realized that the flow, construct of life, of my life, was nothing but concepts ( like concentrated thoughts made of holograms (for a better description): I, Dvorah got crazy angry. Because the “person/Dvorah” comes out of that KNOWING and whines & complains how she’s been duped and how could the Divine play such a horrible joke on her and on and on. It’s Dvorah (the person, the thought form) that calls it a joke and it’s Dvorah that’s pissed off! So it’s the personality plays out the drama. HOWEVER…

After that initial nonsense (which can last awhile and continues to come & go)…there is this realization that just doesn’t care what “dvorah” thinks about anthing!!! Dvorah can whine, complain, curse her life, her realiztions, her Guru, her misery or the opposite, love everything, bless everything, WHATEVER…..IT JUST DOESN’T MATTER….You do what you do, say what you say and do the very best you can and are happy with the PEACE-THE JOKE-THIS.

IT JUST IS WHAT IT IS and that’s the end of IT.

Ask Dvorahji: Do I have a choice, Was this my Fault?

Blog

ARE YOU THE DOER?
My bumper sticker says: Our problem is we just can’t let go of this “I am the doer bit” …. especially in America where “I will, I can, I must” (and I’m going to do it MYSELF) exists so strongly. The question comes up: “how is it possible that I’m NOT the doer? Impossible”. 
Even long time seekers are still going for the “law of attraction” professing: “Well if I can’t do it, there must be something wrong with my desiring, let me desire even stronger!”
Now everything is possible in consciousness, and desires are fulfilled and many times that fulfillment can coincide with the desire for that fulfillment…BUT THAT STILL DOESN’T MEAN YOU DID IT! You, are like an ant with an intellect. You do what you do, and NOW you can “THINK” ABOUT IT every which way and then bother yourself about EVERYTHING, thinking all the time it’s YOUR FAULT, YOU DID IT! 
WELL in the world of appearance you did do it!! and SO WHAT? SO YOU DID IT, SO YOU MADE A MISTAKE. SO YOU LOST YOUR HOUSE, cause you couldn’t get a job. So you lost your husband, cause you nagged. So your daughter’s on drugs, cause you “think” you didn’t pay enough attention. So your Guru doesn’t call your name or pay attention to you, because you “think” you’re too stupid and have too many negative thoughts!” SO FRICKIN WHAT?
IT HAPPENED, AND YOU can’t do anything about it except what you can at this moment and if you “could have done it differently you would have done it differently and you JUST DIDN’T!!!!. WHY? BECAUSE!!!!!! 
NOW go through your traumas, go through the gyrations, bang your head against a wall and when IT’S OVER….SAY WITH FULL CONVICTION: “if it could have been different it would have been different!!! THEN move on to what YOU need to do next and WHALLLLLAH…YOU’RE IN PEACE AGAIN moving through the LiLa again and again…waving, and screaming and bliss..ing at the next adventures that’s screwing you over……..
