nothing what it seems- dancing with the dark 12/11/2010

 What if everything that you are able to see, experience and hear is alive.

Alive! and has the same exact quality of presence that we might think is personal to us, to me.

What is this presence? What is what senses and doesn’t need logic to understand?

My whole world view falls flat on it’s face, and gives me a dizzying feeling when I think of that. The usual paradigm is that things that appear and that we can experience and see don’t have presence and are useful to a ‘me’ that can benefit.

 

Is it not a miracle that typing can happen right now? That somehow there is intelligence that is moved to type to express ideas to think of new ways of expression to contact reality even through lies since all language isn’t a BAM! POW!  in your face reality, in some ways it is. Like the sounds themselves.

 

But not the contents. How different then what we are used to thinking about ‘the world’ and ‘me’.

 

Lying in a dark room, I look and notice the darkness is really bright and perhaps full of light. Nothing is what it seems to be at least not forever at least not even for a second. I look at the darkness in this room, and I don’t understand it. Of course not! How can I ? it is not logical, and the word dark doesn’t at all explain what darkness is. Same goes for sound and pretty much every symbol we use.

 

If we want to look and see the aliveness, and that it morphs constantly without pause. Is it myself I’m looking at? None other.

 

Without being repetitive from some old ideas or something heard or read.

And checking in right now with reality, with what’s going on. Well immediately I sense a bubbly joy surface and excitement felt.

And if it would have a voice it might say like a little girl ‘oh oh what is this? How exciting. What’s going on here? “ and continue playing and exploring with whatever came her way.

 

I am not a me, and a room is not what I think of it.

How exciting, how open it feels to not have a strict idea on what anything is.

On what’s going on here.

 

Discovering freshly, newly right now again and again.

What a great game is that what’s called hide and seek?
