Life happens. To whom? Stuff happens. To whom? The pendulum swings back and forth between wanted and unwanted so long as there is the contraction of "individuality". What is That IN which that pendulum swings? And what is at the axis, the fulcrum, of that pendulum? And what is the pendulum made of? What IS an “individual” made of!?”
Let us start with an actual FACT: (“Just the facts. Ma’am” – Joe Friday).The FACT, the Living REALITY, Is: You are the Nonconceptual non-separate Being-Eternity IN which (and AS which) the opposites of duality appear. The movie show is entrancing only so long as that assumed-individual i.e. the energy contracted into a little speck of apparent temporality we call "me" is still happening. Yet all the while, What You Are remains ever present as Intemporality, The Eternal Statelessness...
Some have claimed quite convincingly that “the energetic contraction” pointed to by some who share this Message that is just a “nonsense concept”. But tell that to one who is STUCK IN (or AS) that sense of contraction! There is an old saying, that "A knowledge of Sanskrit is of no use to a man trapped in a sewer!" Indeed. And when it gets crystal clear that there is NO escape from the sewer (through investigation or any other so called means), then, it can so happen that the contraction ends, in a single unexpected instant outside of the delusion of "time".
Nasty stuff happens, and then contacted pattern of Infinite Energy commonly called “the individual” complains about it out of resistance to What Is. In this appearing life, there are ups and downs for everyone! The pendulum swings back and forth between wanted and unwanted so long as there is the contraction of "individuality". Friends die, or worse become “enemies”. Lovers leave. You lose a great job and cannot find another no matter how hard you try. You lose a ton of money is a crazy stock market. You are caught by a hurricane or an oil spill; No truer words were ever spoken: SHIT HAPPENS. And the assumption is, it happens “to ME” and therefore “I suffer”.
But IS there really a solid separate I or me? Or is that a pattern, a contracted energy that exists only as a bindle of thoughts, concepts, feelings, sensations, perceptions and experiences that happen beyond “your” ability to control!? Is that assumption actually TRUE? Maybe, if it is to happen in the unfolding of What Is, there will appear a questioning of that assumption: Is it true? How do I know it is true? then it may be suddenly seen that no one is speaking-thinking, and no one is listening-thinking; there is not two speaker-listener entities, it is a ONLY a story, a “tale told by an idiot, signifying nothing”.
So in the story, the cinema show, the pendulum swings; everything is ALWAYS changing! But wait! What is That IN which that pendulum swings? And what is at the axis, the fulcrum, of that pendulum? The space IN which the fulcrum appears is the basis and Sorce …of This … Living Reality…
You are That … the Space … A Locationless Being-Eternity IN which (and AS which) the opposites of duality appear. The movie show is entrancing only so long as that assumed-individual i.e. the energy contracted into a little speck of apparent temporality we call "me" is still happening. Yet all the while, What You Are remains ever present as Intemporality, The Eternal Statelessness...
Meanwhile a statement of pure FACT may provide some momentary insight (or more) ... "THY Will Be Done" ... i.e. NOT "my" will but "Thine" meaning ... Totality, the Universal Unfoldingness ... That is pointed at by The Buddha in: "Actions happen, deeds are done, but there is NO 'individual doer' thereof!"
One last point: There is no one to do anything to gain the final dissolution of the contraction out into Boundlessness. So if there is no one, that assumed one will lament, "There is nothing I can do to gain freedom!" Quite right as far as it goes, but deeper ... there IS no "I" to do or not do ANYTHING. Doing is NOT in "your" control! ALL simply HAPPENS ... as it does and as it does NOT!
So the other side of THAT coin is clearly, there is nothing "you" can do to PREVENT the dissolution either! That in itself, the seeing that there IS no one to either cause or prevent enlightenment, may offer some deeper peace with an unconditional yet uncaused acceptance of what is, as it is.
So be it, IF it happens. .. We shall see.
Now I suggest all the readers of this DROP this wanting a story and explanation of what IS! Enough already. Y'all: Go and BAKE in the Message of there being NO one to either "explode or not!" (IF you can, of course; a VERY big IF! We shall see if it happens or not, but that exhortation arises from the Infinite and Loving Energy that YOU ARE …)
Over and (with Grace) OUT!
