LIFE IS DEATH AND DEATH IS LIFE
Like a leaf tumbling to the ground,
Apparent life as being an apparent death is inevitable and obvious in the end,
Whether death comes as the end of an assumed experience,
Or with the end of another apparent form,
It is all whole and complete in any and every sense and non-sense,
Adrift, fluid, moving and still, soaring and falling,
But going nowhere,
As it was never begun,
Timeless everything,
Apparent yet not,
What a burden to experience life as something owned, controlled, or as being directed,
What freedom to be without the need to know what's happening or where this may or may not be going or appearing to go,
Ungraspable freedom for no one,
It is all already itself,
Life appearing as death,
And death appearing to be inexpressibly alive.

So, what is non duality? The supreme source of all wisdom and knowledge known to the masses as Wikipedia might say something about the words "non duality" or "non dualism" as meaning "not two", as in there are not two things, from which one may naturally deduce that there is only the one or oneness.
It may then go on to say that non duality refers to some kind of transcendent state of consciousness or awareness where the person who has realised this state no longer considers themselves as being an individual that is separate from the whole or the one, and that this state has come about by years of preparation through meditation, contemplative practises and self-inquiry...
HOME

Home,
Always and ever 'this',
No more excursions out into the cold rain,
No more clambering across the jagged rocks,
No more violent winds,
No one left to be exposed to the elements,
No mountain to climb,
No walls to be breached,
Just softness,
Gentleness,
Timelessness,
Impermanence,
Still...
LIBERATION
July 30, 2021
Liberation is the end of the need to be or become liberated,
It is the end of the need for something else,
It is the end of the hope for something better,
It is the end of the sense to be someone who is lost and therefore needs to find a way to bring about what is felt to be missing...
IN THE BEGINNING
July 26, 2021
In the beginning there was no thing; Void without form and all apparent form as being the void. To say that something began from this void would be a misunderstanding; To say that something arises out of the void would be erroneous; To say that this void changes in anyway at all, is an illusion; To imply that there is anyone who can know this, is a dream. There are no beginnings or endings; No real movement of any kind; Only the appearance as being timelessly itself...
