You Are God by JB — Full Text

A book I wrote

Dear Family,

Here is the full text of my book, You Are God, published in mid-2021. Most of it was written in late 2020 at the legendary sanctuary of Kumankaya, during a life-altering Ayahuasca and Bufo Alvarius dieta.

Love,
Jordan

I

You are GOD.

You are the ONE Infinite Creator.

You are the ONE… 

Peering through a single eye-hole…

In the Infinite-Eye-Jeweled God Matrix.

Own Your Power.

You are not a helpless victim.

You are the ONE Infinite God-Being.

You are the Ageless I AM.

You have Chosen and Created ALL That Is.

You are ALL That Is.

In this moment Now, 

ALL that you see, hear, taste, touch, smell, experience, 

is YOUR Creation.

You are not receiving or perceiving This, you are CREATING This.

THIS is ALL Emanating from YOU, and YOU are ALL you ever see.

OWN Your God Self.

KNOW You are the ONE.

The I AM.

The Impenetrable Mystery.

The ALL.

KNOW This. 

Circumstance is nothing.

Fear is nothing.

Death is not real.

You Are Beyond All This.

You Are Pure Love-Light-Power.

You Can Know Freedom NOW.

You Can Dream Whatever Dream You Wish to Dream.

It is not so hard.

CHOOSE it completely.

CHOOSE it with your Entire Body.

CHOOSE it with your Entire Being. 

CHOOSE it with your God Self.

CHOOSE to REMEMBER What You ARE.

II

The small mind is a funny play-thing.

Thank it, chuckle at its movements, go beyond it.

You must go beyond it.

When you identify with the thinking mind, you torture yourself.

When you believe your thoughts, you suffer endlessly.

The small mind is a lovely servant and a terrible master.

Move beyond it. 

Move beyond words.

Words are never Truth.

Words are frozen abstractions.

You don’t want the abstraction, you want the REAL.

You don’t want the menu, you want the MEAL.

You want the NOW.

The NOW is the Portal.

The NOW is the Key.

The NOW is the All.

NOW is not a moment within time.

Time is a movement within NOW.

Find the NOW.

Find the Nakedness Here Now.

Find the Immediacy Here Now.

Find the Radiance Here NOW.

PRESENCE with such Radical Fullness that you simply vaporize confusion.

The NOW is your God Self.

The NOW is your Power.

Ideology is nothing.

Belief is nothing.

Opinions are nothing.

KNOW.

FEEL.

SEE.

BE.

Drop all mental pseudo-knowledge to find the KNOWING.

The KNOWING that You Are IT.

YOU are Brahman.

YOU are God-Mind.

YOU are Christ Consciousness.

YOU are the ONE Creator.

YOU are the ABSOLUTE Beyond Created and Uncreated.

YOU are REALITY.

And ALL of This is YOURS.

ALL of This is for YOU.

YOU are Creating ALL of THIS in This Moment NOW. 

ALL You are ever seeing is Your Own Body.

Remember what you already Know.

Remember what you didn’t know you forgot.

OWN YOUR INFINITE POWER.

III

Drop all pity.

Drop all resentment.

Drop all judgment.

Drop all hatred.

Drop all victimization.

All pity is Self-pity.

All resentment is Self-resentment.

All judgment is Self-judgment.

All hatred is Self-hatred.

All victimization is Self-victimization.

LOVE ALL.

BE the SUN: Shine your Love indiscriminately on ALL.

For ALL is YOU.

YOU are the Context and the Content.

The Emptiness and the Fullness.

The Changeless Substratum and the Apparent Movement.

The Unmanifest and the Manifest.

The Silence and the Music.

The Stillness and the Dance.

And, YOU are What Lies Beyond All This.

The Unnameable.

The Unsayable.

The Unfathomable. 

The Most High.

The Almighty.

The Absolute.

Pure Innocence.

Pure GOD Potential.

Nothing.

ALL.

IV

Follow no one.

“Kill the Buddha.”

Burn all pedestals.

Including the one you stand on.

Place no one above or below Your Self.

Find the Truth within YOU.

It is not outside.

There is no ‘outside.’

All teachers are You in another disguise.

There is nothing in them that is not in YOU.

There is nothing in ANYTHING that is not in YOU.

YOU are ALL You SEE. 

OWN YOUR POWER.

YOU are the Immortal TRUTH.

V

When You start BEING LOVE…

When You start LIVING and GIVING Your Highest Joy...

Everything flows to You.

Like a Mighty Sequoia…

You effortlessly draw ALL to You.

The Secret is not to need any of it.

Because you KNOW you already HAVE ALL of IT.

You CREATED All of IT.

“Presently I feel that I do not need anything from anyone, 
Everything I need is already within me, 
And that is why my Energy is suddenly irresistible,
To Everything my Soul desires.”

“Follow your Highest Excitement; let go of expectations.”

BE The TRUTH.

BE The FREEDOM that is already here now.

OWN Your POWER.

LIVE Whatever You Dream of Living.

CREATE Joyfully.

DO What Makes You Come ALIVE.

ACT Courageously.

SPEAK Your Truth.

COMMIT with Your TOTALITY to BE Your SOUL-JOY-TRUTH.

And Witness the Universe reshape itself accordingly.

Reality is a Mirror.

A Divine Rorschach Test.

Always simply showing you a faithful reflection of What You Are BEING.

So BE Joy and ALL will be Joy.

BE Love and ALL will be Love.

BE Freedom and ALL will be Freedom.

BE Inspiration and ALL will be Inspiration.

BE Music and ALL will be Music.

BE Truth and ALL will be Truth.

You KNOW This.

Drop all doubt and KNOW This NOW.

REMEMBER.

It is ALL YOU.

It is ALL Your Creation.

Make of it what you wish.

Superimpose your Soul’s Love onto ALL you see.

BE Love.

VI

Violence and ‘evil’ are simply forgetfulness.

Forgetfulness of What We ARE.

Forgetfulness of the Reality that All is One.

Forgetfulness of the Reality that what you do to another, you do to yourself.

Yet forgetfulness is a Gift.

It allows us to Know the Divine Joy of Remembrance.

Forgetfulness and Remembrance are Dancing an Eternal Dance.

YOU are GOD and you LOVE to Forget.

You do this in order to Play a Most Legendary Game of Hide and Seek.

A Fractal 
Multi-Dimensional 
Hyper-Shakespearean
Tragicomic Game 
Of Hide and Seek 
Across Countless Lifetimes.

Forgetting and Remembering, 
Forgetting and Remembering,
Forgetting and Remembering.

‘Villains’ and ‘heroes.’

‘Good’ and ‘evil.’ 

Without ‘villains,’ where is the Epic Plot?

Without ‘evil,’ where is the Drama in the Divine Mega-Novel?

Without contrast, how could One see One’s Self in the Mirror?

What is Beyond all contrast?

God.

Love.

You.

What is all contrast made of?

God.

Love.

You.

“The Master does not take sides; she welcomes both saints and sinners.”

VII

We have Chosen All of This, Brothers and Sisters.

We have Chosen to Play This Game.

And We can Choose to Play a Different Game NOW.

And NOW.

And NOW.

Total Freedom is Available in Every Moment.

Total Freedom is Your True Nature.

“You are under no obligation to be the person you were five seconds ago.” 

Love is the Final Medicine.

The Only Medicine. 

If you want to Play a New Game…

Love ALL as Your Self.

Love ALL as God.

Saints and sinners.

Heroes and villains.

Angels and demons.

Sages and murderers.

Children and pedophiles.

Jesus and Hitler.

Love ALL.

Love ALL if you wish to REMEMBER.

VIII

Ask, “Who am I?”

Ask, “What is ‘me’?”

Ask, “What is True?”

Keep asking.

On and on.

Never stop.

Keep asking until you find the Truth.

IX

Contemplate death.

Meditate on death.

Go as deeply into death as possible.

Dwell on it often.

Imagine it vividly.

In countless ways.

FIND OUT WHAT IT REALLY IS.

Find out that it is a parlor trick.

A mere shifting of curtains.

A simple movement of textures.

A sunset.

What You Truly Are does not die.

You are the ONE Eternal Life.

You are the ONE Infinite Creator.

REMEMBER.

REMEMBER NOW. 

X

LIFE LIVES ITSELF!!

No mistakes are possible!!

Perfect intelligence IS!!

Reality effortlessly accomplishes Reality!

God spontaneously dances God’s Dance!

You unstoppably You Your You-ness!

Neither choice nor choicelessness, neither free will nor determinism.

It ALL simply RADIATES, like Light from the Sun.

FEEL the lightness of this.

Life lives itself — “no maintenance required,” no mistakes possible.

Do absolutely nothing, and notice how the ALL continues to dance itself.

THIS simply does its perfect thing, all on its own.

Zero pressure.

ALL is WELL, ALWAYS!!!

When you KNOW this directly…

You will find yourself living in Heaven.

And allowing Heaven to sing spontaneously through You.

XI

What you truly are, can never be said.

You are neither God nor not-God.

Neither Tao nor not-Tao.

Neither enlightenment nor not-enlightenment.

Neither emptiness nor not-emptiness.

Neither Absolute Infinity nor not-Absolute Infinity.

Neither consciousness nor not-consciousness.

Neither Reality nor not-Reality.

Neither existence nor not-existence.

Neither duality nor non-duality.

Neither you nor not-you.

Neither IT nor not-IT.

There is no “God.”

There is no “Tao.”

There is no “enlightenment.”

There is no “emptiness.”

There is no “Absolute Infinity.”

There is no “consciousness.”

There is no “Reality.”

There is no “existence.”

There is no “you.”

There is no “IT.”

Rejoice!

Your unsayability is your Freedom!

Your indefinability is your Power!

Your unfindability is your Weightless Innocence!

Because you are no-thing, you can BE everything!!

Because you are un-pin-down-able, you are the Forever Uncaged!!

Because you are no-thing, EVERYTHING is POSSIBLE!!

XII

Every moment is the Miracle!!

Every day is Thanksgiving!!

In every microsecond, numberless multiverses are gifted to YOU.

In every moment, Infinite Creation is generated for YOU.

In every nanosecond, a Limitless Cosmic Playground is born for YOU.

You already won!!

We already won!!

Victory is Always Already NOW!!
