Clear Seeing: From Bullshit Valley to Reality
Three years. Fifty awakenings. One pattern that kept repeating until it exhausted itself.
This isn't another spiritual teaching from someone who "got there." This is forensic documentation of sophisticated seeking—preserved exactly as it happened, collapse by collapse.
What makes seekers get stuck isn't lack of insight. It's a trap most never see coming.
You experience genuine choice when the alarm rings. The nondual teaching says "there's no chooser—that's illusion." So you think: "My felt experience must mean I'm not awake yet."
The Relative-Absolute Divide opens. Embodied life becomes evidence you're "not there yet." The absolute becomes something to reach by transcending the relative. That rejection IS the seeking. That division IS Bullshit Valley in spiritual costume.
Traditional teachings—Advaita Vedanta, Kashmir Shaivism, Zen Buddhism—hold profound truth. But modern application of "no chooser" can become quicksand when it denies the relative. You keep seeking the perspective where felt choice finally disappears, trying to transcend your way UP to pure awareness.
This book documents every sophisticated way I tried to escape that trap—and what finally ended the seeking.
Not through achieving the "right" perspective. Through recognizing that the valley between "here" and "there" only appears real when you're looking from the mind instead of the heart.
Inside these pages:

• Raw documentation of three years preserved exactly as written—no cleanup, no revision from hindsight
• The same pattern failing fifty times in increasingly clever disguises
• Why distinguishing the mind's alarm from gut wisdom changes everything
• How staying with sensation is structurally different from every spiritual technique
• The paradox that IS the truth: honor both felt choice and absolute no-chooser—don't weaponize either
• What "the end of awayness" actually means (not transcending, not descending)
• Why the body isn't a tunnel to travel but where the flight stops

The universal mechanism operating everywhere:
Cold water. Hunger. Your wife's bitchy comment. Your daughter asking you to swim when you're tired. Alarm rings → stay with sensation or flee to mind's escape route → everything changes based on where you're looking from.
Pattern recognition training. Watch someone take the bait in fifty different ways. Your nervous system learns faster than your mind—like learning to spot a con artist after watching them force the card ten times.
By Chapter 5, you'll feel the rhythm. By Chapter 10, you'll predict the next move. By Chapter 18, you'll catch this grabbing motion in yourself—not as understanding but as somatic recognition, like knowing you're about to sneeze.
What remains after seeking ends isn't enlightenment. It's recognition—faster, simpler, embodied. The valley opens less often. When it does, you see it for what it is. Life remains real, but the meaning-machine of the mind no longer runs the show.
The simple truth revealed through three years of documentation:
The mind makes a gap and then sells you bridges. Staying here with sensation is the only move that doesn't build another one—ending awayness and revealing the absolute that was never elsewhere.
For seekers exhausted by sophisticated frameworks. For anyone who's had genuine awakenings that faded. For those who suspect the teaching itself might be the trap.
This book doesn't tell you what to do. It shows you the pattern repeating until your body stops believing it.
From Bullshit Valley to reality. Not through achieving awakening. Through recognizing there was never anywhere to go.
"If you're reading this, your body probably recognizes what your mind is still seeking."
