BEINGNESS – THE NO-THING ONE IS SWIMMING IN AND AS.
That beingness one IS isn’t an ‘it’, an idea, experience, or thing. Awareness is an ISness, like space, peace, beauty, love.
~ All words and pictures speak to the mind, which keeps its hold on us with its continuous contentions, personal opinions, yes? Perhaps it’s wise to see that perpetual parsing and to overlook the mind, at least occasionally; to perhaps directly recognize that which IS, is unrecognizable by thought and feeling.
Only Awareness is aware of itself. We are that light – that unattached aware knowing, of all things, events, and experiences. To see that in our Self, all we need to ‘do’ is stop all – ALL – doing. Nirvana means “total cessation.” Let everything be exactly as is,- not ‘as it is’, there being no ‘it’ in aware being. No more veiling questions asked, no more distracting feelings explored. There’s a dropping of them all unconditionally. Indeed, if that ‘happens’ (that is not our doing, that is grace), we discover – we uncover – that we are already awake. There’s a direct seeing of the seer as awareness, and the fact that the source, that light that illuminates, is what we are, and this is.
We are that which is even now, simply aware of these words, of the breath, the pulse, the dynamic hum and buzz of this alert aliveness, here/now. We are pure living spirit – the whole Living Self of the universe, and beyond. In truth, we are transported from knowing to unknowing, beyond becoming, beyond time and space. We are that unknown, that great alert intelligence, and we rest infinitely in the natural peace, beauty, and joy of being unknown. In silence and stillness. In love, so to speak. We’re swimming in that. 🙂
~ There’s no winning in one battle after another. Fighting is a habit; peace is our nature. Step outta the ring, take a quiet walk, and peace may take your hand. Love, and be well.
~ For those of us who think visually, a picture may be more profound than words. The Koi digital creation here, by my new friend Maureen, struck and inspired me powerfully as a beautiful representation of beingness. Thanks, M. Love and enjoy. 🙂
