Today, as I was coming to the end of my morning stroll,
looking around at the other humans who were "busy walking",
I had a realization.
A realization that I have had in the past as well.
But today, its Sight was clearest.
All these people were "there".
They were "there" because they Are not.
They are stuck being "them".
Because they were "there", they were not allowing
the action of Walking to be done through them.
Because they were "there", they were
but distracting themselves with their "walking".
Not to mention, the torment of involuntary thinking
was distracting them from that distraction.
A terrible existence, I must admit.
Plainly labeling such a nested distracted living,
without the judgment of the statement above,
would be saying
"Living like that is one of being kept from disappearing"
One is kept from disappearing by
the many tethers of their Mind,
the pains of the pulls on the tethers,
its constant chatter,
and the "job" to partake in that chatter.
For really, Life, is one of Existing.
And Existing is only possible when one is not "there".
Yes.
Existing begins as one begins to Disappear.
For stark, nonchalant and tall stands the Truth...
A living devoted to the Truth of one's existence,
is a gradual disappearance in spacetime.
As bit by bit, chunks of the Mind are devoted to the Truth,
one's understanding of their Mind, its tendencies,
and the Reason behind its incarnation approaches
wholeness and completeness.
This means that the Mind rarely speaks.
And only when it is allowed to.
Most of the times it serves
without being asked for.
One's intent is enough.
In unison with the above,
one's understanding of the Body,
its inherent abilities and limitations approach wholeness too.
This means one realizes the vitality of their essence,
its flow through the Body, and how it impacts Them.
This also means when doing a trivial activity,
the Body is "just not there".
And when an athletic activity is called for,
the Body exerts the force or the power as needed,
without ruminating any spoonfed technique or instruction.
The resultant Existence is one of pure awareness (consciousness),
but at the same time harboring a holistic knowledge
of the world forming incrementally on its own.
An Existence, no words can do true justice.
The closest phrase perhaps is one of -
Just not being there and yet,
being Everywhere.
Thank you.
