Journey to the Abstract

All phenomenal objects/observation objects are YOU

There is no ‘phenomenal object’ or ‘observation object’ that cannot be seen as yourself (i.e. the same as the eyes of love). This includes all kinds of pain, suffering, agitation, every possible humiliation and negative experience, and so on. Because ultimately everything is an appearance in consciousness.

All appearances are me, and I am the mysterious/unknowable force that moves everything.

From the transcendent viewpoint, this is exactly what I want.

In that level of seeing, my creative principle becomes the creative principle of the entire universe, my will becomes God’s will, my intelligence becomes God’s intelligence, I become one with God, I become God. I AM ‘THAT’.

That mysterious unmanifest force is me, along with all of the manifest, which is also me.

The manifest is a very very small part of me.

But I sometimes choose to forget my vastness just to experience limitation and explore one of my possibilities.

This helps me renew the appreciation for who I am, by the duality principle.

The more limitation you experience, the more you can appreciate your vastness, when you go back.

This entire manifest is one of my infinite possibilities.

The rest of the infinite infinite possibilities are the unmanifest (potential for manifest possibilities).

The true experience of being GOD, can only be had after experiencing limitation, because it is the limitation that illuminates the experience of the infinite. And it is the infinite that illuminates the experience of being limited.

Because if you were really limited, you would not even know you are limited. If you were really infinite, you would not even know you are infinite. The 2 experiences mutually create each other and mutually illuminate one and other by the principle of duality.

If God did not play this game, there would be no experience at all. Just ZERO, NOTHING and it would not be possible to experience this NOTHING, because NOTHING needs a SOMETHING to contrast it to be NOTHING. So all experience can only happen in duality/contrast. So the experiences are duality dreams played by God, for his own entertainment, enjoyment, and for playing with his infinite creativity and possibilities.

I remain as my effortless essence

729560__red-flower-wallpaper-wallpapers_p

I let go of all people and things,

That need my effort to be with me.

If it is just my act or effort,

That makes people or things come to me or be with me

Then I let them go.

If people or things come to me effortlessly,

If they are naturally attracted to my effortless essence (my true essence),

I embrace them, witness them, understand them, BE with them, love them.

But I do not seek anything or anyone, with my act or effort.

Something/Someone that requires my effort to be attracted to me,

Is not really loving me, but only loving my effort/act.

I remain in my effortlessness, and drop all effort.

I welcome everything that is naturally attracted to my essence.

Just like a flower.

The flower simply stays open and vulnerable,

but does not seek to make people look at it/admire it/love it,

By tricks, acts, deceptions, manipulations.

The flower does not expect anything from anyone,

All it gives out is its true intrinsic effortless essence,

Radiating it outwards to anyone who SEES it, truly sees it as it is.

It remains in its nature, and people who are really present with it

See its utmost beauty and tenderness

While others who are preoccupied in the clouds of their ego

Simply pass by without noticing the flower

I am this open vulnerable flower.

I remain as I am, in my effortless nature.

The importance of the ego (using the freudian model of the psyche)

There is the:

WHAT I WANT – Desires/Needs/ID

WHAT SHOULD BE – Superego/Morals

ARBITER, DECISION MAKER/EXECUTIVE – Ego/Decider/Action

When the ego/self/personality structure does not integrate the ID and superego, there is internal strife.

If the super-ego is too large – there is inhibition by guilt, other-centered martyr. May get exploited.

If the ID is too large – there is the asshole, self-centered bully. May exploit.

Since the ego is the arbiter, the ego will notice it gets hijacked by guilt (super-ego) while the neglected part screams. Similarly the ego can also notice if it gets hijacked by desires and the neglected morals would scream back.

If we take the caricature form:

If the super-ego entirely dominates – we will have a perfect martyr personality, excessive empathy, entirely other focused.

If the ID entirely dominates – we will have a psychopath, 0 empathy, entirely self-confused.

So it seems like, the ego (which is vilified in other spiritual contexts) actually in this model, serves an integrating function, a harmonizing function in consciousness. So we need to have an extremely capable and strong ego that can integrate both the entire Super-ego(morality, empathy) and the entire ID (unconscious) and maintain a beautiful music and harmony between them.

Maybe that is the function of the ego, to balance the infinity on both sides:

(infinite superego, ideals)+ve infinity —————Ego(arbiter)————— -ve infinity(infinite unconscious)

We could look at it in multiple ways:

(consciousness, knowledge, understanding, coherence)Light———–(Ego)————–Darkness(unconsciousness, unknown, mystery/wonder, chaos)

List of Duality spectrums

The Yin-Yang dance.

Its just like a pendulum.

Movement to one side simultaneously creates the potential to swing to the other side and vice versa.

Another way to imagine this is to think of it as a spectrum analyzer in your music system.

Lets say the high point is the +ve experience and the low point is the -ve experience.

Each of the below can be columns in this spectrum analyzer shown.

The overall experience that then unfolds moment to moment is MUSIC.

What is the music of your life?

God is the highest abstract principle

From a higher viewpoint:

From the dimension higher than experience point of view,

All experience is equivalent,

And this dimension is at rest outside of all experience.

It is transcendent of all experience.

All experiences are ‘experience flavor’

– All sensory experiences are ‘sensory flavor’

– All material experiences are ‘material flavor’

– All emotional experiences are ’emotion flavor’

– All mental experiences are ‘mental flavor’

When seen from this abstract point of view, the point of view transcends the specific forms in each of these flavors.

Now this abstract point of view, is form agnostic, and allows ANY form to exist because all form is equivalent.

The more abstract you go, the more and more forms in various planes of experience get freedom and your identification is moved to higher and higher levels of abstraction until you reach the ‘GOD’ identification.

The GOD identification is the most abstract and that is why ‘Journey to God, is the same as Journey to the Abstract’.

Implicit and Explicit are ONE and the picture is always WHOLE

It occurs to me whether you serve your needs or other people’s needs, from a higher viewpoint, they both are equivalent – i.e. basically movement towards serving need appearances.

Whether things drive you

OR you drive things

what difference does it ultimately make

what difference does it make, which side of the dance you are in?

Because from the level above, both are equivalent.

Its still a dance between 2, and is whole.

In one, you choose the yin role and the other takes the yang role.

In the other case, you choose the yang role, the other takes the yin role.

Ultimately a receiver needs a giver and the giver needs a receiver.

Thats how energetically things fit into each other like a lock and key.

The Yin attracts Yang for its wholeness. The Yang attracts the Yin for its wholeness.

All energy is attempting to complete itself.

If you realize you are all the energy that exists.

You see yourself as both Yin and Yang, and then the identification with Yin or Yang is transcended.

Now you are both and neither.

Once the identification with Yin, Yang is transcended

Both voluntary and involuntary actions become equivalent.

Control and non-control are seen as one.

Duality itself is transcended.

Then any appearance is alright.

In some situations, you are the Yin, in some you are the Yang,

but you flow seamlessly because you see wholeness in both.

When you are explicitly Yang, the implicit aspect in your experience is a Yin.

And vice versa.

You see both the explicit and implicit as ONE and the picture is WHOLE no matter what appears.

Illustration of separate self to enlightenment

Lets say you are an atom. Being enlightened is like if the atom was aware of its own nature as infinite potential. So wherever this atom goes and no matter what other atoms it witnesses, it witness them as ‘ITSELF’ in a different possibility (one of its own possibilities).

In the illustration below:

First atom 1 sees itself as 1, and sees all other atoms as different from itself. Then on enlightenment, the atom realizes it contains within its nature the potential to be every other atom in existence.

Breath of the divine dimensionless point

Say, we start off as a moving point of awareness which contains in it the potential for a full breath. Now the breath begins to expand the circle of awareness around the point (i.e. the point sees itself in relationship to all other points in its circle of awareness). Now the point may appear to move relative to the other points in its circle of awareness, but since all motion is relative, the point is actually still. Once this expanding breath has completely released it potential from the point, the circle of awareness is largest, around the point. After this, the contracting breath starts and the circle of awareness is pulled back into the point.

Now this illustration is happening linearly or in TIME. If we go beyond time, then both expansion and contraction are one event.

Expansion implies contraction.

Every expansion generates a proportional potential for contraction.

Contraction implies expansion.

Every contraction generates a proportional potential for expansion.

Expansion and Contraction are one process.

Identity, Chakras and density

1st – Physical, 2nd – Relationship, passion, 3rd – Identity, values, society, 4th – Accepting/Loving all living things, 5th – Creative expression, art – painting, dance, music, 6th – Thought, dreams, 7th – transcendent realities

Our true identity is everything, all of the 7 chakras and their energy frequencies.

I have imagined it as a long tubelight of awareness shining across all the frequencies.

Density increasing from the bottom to the top.

Giving and Taking

Do not give what is not truly/freely/unconditionally taken.

Do not take what is not truly/freely/unconditionally given.

Because what is not truly/freely/unconditionally given comes with bondage.

What is not truly/freely/unconditionally taken is not of any value anyway.
