NONDUALITY AND THE END OF THE SEARCHING FOR A SPIRITUAL FAIRY TALE



It does seem that something apparently can happen wherein the seeking for IT ends. But it can be more of a let-down than a break-through. The I might at least somehow, but it is impossible to know, see that it is playing a game of trying to find some spiritual clothing called enlightenment or liberation. And it seems that it can dawn on one a little more than just in an intellectual fashion, or rather dawn, but not on one, just dawn. But that is about all, in a way. That whole process, if it can be called that and if it goes that way, means that seeking does cease or slow down, for someone. Maybe one didn’t find what they were looking for? Maybe one realized that it was just a dream. Its more prosaic then than romantic, more mundane than exciting, more limbo-like than heaven sent. A wild romantic search in books and mountain tops, in speakers and open fields, in ideas and on verdant summer summits, ends. You can’t be a devotee or have devotees, if either is what you wanted. It’s time to do the dishes. It is hoped that those Cascade packets are not out, because a trip to the grocery store, literally, is a pain since it is raining.
