seeing

something happens to man in his infancy
where he contracts energetically
into a separate beingness

this is only an appearance of separation
there is only one universal existence
flowing in complete accord with itself

but in the energetic contraction
man sees himself as an individual or person
this contraction occurs in the cognizing process
where the ethereal or subtle matter we call thoughts
are taken to objects that we are creating individually
leading us to the belief that we are the doer
that we as an individual have the power to create and manifest
this contraction is the ego or mind

liberation, illumination, enlightenment
ia release from the contraction that we are separate
and is a return to a natural functioning
like that of a newborn child
even of plant, mineral or natures creatures

creation is then seen not as individual but universal
each event, object, thought is seen as a timeless arising
an arising within itself

this is strange to comprehend because it cant be
understood by the individual
the “you” must evaporate for this to be seen

you will try to see it through the lens of a separate identity
but only in the dropping of the lens will it be revealed
not revealed to you but become self evident

you can not do anything for this to occur
it is already occurring but the contraction that
has you see yourself as separate creates a veil
and blinds you to what you are

this is not a prescription to take any action
it is only a description of a seeing over here
there is no purpose but its own expression

when you see, and i see, we merge
we are already merged! but this is figurative, poetic
a dance of being and of life

this is the singing of a bird
it knows nothing of its melody
other than the rapture of it

it arises spontaneously
from nowhere
from within and without

seeing is like realizing that
the reflection in the lake is not the moon
seeing that you are the moon, the lake, the reflection and the seer!

however this realization only occurs when
there is an expansion in the energy
this expansion can be taken to be spontaneous or as a ripening
it is both since it is timeless

when it is seen all paradigms that exist
in the contraction of being separate blow apart
its as if there exist two worlds on top of the other
this can be seen as a miracle of miracles
but this is not as mystical as it appears to be
it is a function of raw intelligence energy manifesting itself

it cant even be said if anything is manifesting at all
“being” is commonly used but i prefer “are”

any description destroys what this is
not only cant it be described
but the very attempt at comprehension is
an act of separation
this process too is contained within totality

these words have already died
they survive this expression
