After an actual shift in energy or
identification, known by many names such as moksha, liberation, satori,
enlightenment, awakening, surrender, so on and so forth…
The body belongs then to the body. What
the heck does that mean? It means that the body just functions on its own. The
eyes stay awake until they need to rest, but cannot rest before that. For
instance, before, you could take a nap, or focus, or not focus. It was as if
there was a little person inside of the body controlling these things. And the
person was so real seemingly that it had domain over the body. Such is what
people call willpower, autonomy, sovereign-ness, positive or negative thinking,
attracting, repelling, go-getting, not-getting, striving, not-striving, et
cetera et al. But then, after being shifted, there is just the body. Far from
magical, it can be prosaic, mundane, every-day. It rests in its natural groove
and habits and there is not a division between body and mind, but just a
body-mind with the whole working through it. It is in fact the whole, the all
and everything. It’s almost atheistic. Far reaching nondualism is, here, similar
in a way to atheistic modes of thinking. Which is funny, because one would
think the search for Self and God and Nirvana and Heaven is quite the opposite
of atheism. Yet, - when shifted, - what is left is nothing (and everything),
which is just the One Reality. So the body is just there and appears from the
outside and to the outside observer as the same as it was before. That is the
experience here. Bright lights and visions and gifts are perhaps for others, -
their karmic birthright and destiny. Its more what is here being talked about
just the body, - ho-hum. Hum-drum. Quite boring. I was thinking before it would
be like being beatific, blissful, romantic. But no. It’s just this. And ‘this’
entails brushing teeth, cutting nails, walking, talking, doing the dishes.
Damn! Nonduality sucks eggs!
There is no space. There is, but there
is not. Scientifically there is in order to talk about the desk versus the
chair. But, - really there is not. And this, paradoxically, taken to the next
level, - is scientific also. I always wondered anyways even before, when I
thought about it theoretically, how there could be anything but one reality (scientifically).
It is absolutely impossible, this much I know internally and externally,
intellectually and experimentally and existentially, for there to be any
division in reality. How could there be? It’s all the same thing, - from ‘here’
to ‘eternity’. How could a thing be A) a thing, or B) outside of reality? It’s
simply impossible. But I can see why it divided itself into parts in order to
experience itself as they say.
Time. There is no time. The time we
mark appears inside of the no-time. It’s kind of like a dream. No, maybe that
is not right. It’s like this: nope. - can’t explain it. Can’t explain the
timeless through words. Maybe it’s impossible and that is what the poets try to
do. Who knows? There is Timelessness- Void, - and then everything happens
inside of it. The seasons, the days, the clock, the seconds. They have a certain
validity, - but they happen in the stillness. Even birth and death occur inside
of the One. How could it be otherwise?
So there are three things anyways. I
probably forgot some or many. To recap:
Body, meaning there is only the body doing
what it does, or body-mind,- but the gestalt or ground-figure relationship has
not only changed, but has become one, so it’s not a gestalt at all, only
appears as such from the outside. Ground and figure are now GROUNDFIGURE. It’s
ONE, and it does what it does. - No free will, just the appearance of free
will.
Space, meaning there is no space, - so
now what is outside is inside. You are what you look upon. That is why there
can be a tendency for the human to isolate or protect itself somewhat, -
because this gives new meaning to the word empath. This is empath to the
exponential umpteenth fold number.
And Time, meaning no time, yet time
appearing inside of no-time. Which sounds admittedly like nonsense to the
uninitiated, but if you are in No-Time, you see time unfolding or proceeding
(the earth goes around the sun and the seasons change, there is morning, noon,
and night, there is a difference between 7:02 AM and 10:00 PM, yet that is like
lights going on in a room, - it is the same room all the time, lights on or
off. So the stillness or Oneness is always the case, - but time marches through
it, out of it and falls back into it every instant practically instantaneously,
- like a magic show.
