NONDUALITY AND PROJECTION

The person who thinks they have it has projected because there is nothing to have. The person who thinks there is nothing to have is playing the opposite game. There is nothing that can be done but all things are happening that are happening. It all amounts to saying nothing about nothing. Most all things are perhaps projections. The one looking at the other will see according to his/her own beliefs. The person being viewed can by turns, depending on the viewer, be seen as a hero, a villain, a lunatic, a saint, a con-artist, a true messenger, a flake. One might call him/her a one whose aura (aura is meant colloquially here), and atmosphere is full of truth, clarity, objectivity, or full of illusion, confusion, and mud. A note on good and bad: we must say that it is bad to cross the street on a red light because we live in this world. This is the responsible functioning mode of operation. We must say to harm another is incorrect. Since we do not know the whole and can’t perhaps ever know it, we must proceed sanely as possible. It seems we shall have a better chance to ‘live again and fight another day-(the good fight hopefully…) But, what is relatively also? It must be considered. What if a bad man, a crook, a master thief, who has stolen many a man and woman’s good and honest earnings, comes across a drowning soul in a river and saves the soul? Has such a thing never happened? Of course it has. Who is the man then, to the soul he saved? Or the soul’s family and friends? Who is he at the moment he reaches and grabs the person falling under the water to certain demise? Is he good, or bad? Or, in a wider context, is it just a human body mind rescuing another human body mind from the river? Why put a label on it?
