61. Incarnation

All creation is an incarnation of the Intelligence of what we call Life. Life itself is simply that intelligence. Life appears as incarnated world. In fact the objective nature of Life is the world as ‘we’ see it. The ‘we’ that see the world is ‘life’ that sees the world as ‘we’. It’s life that ‘sees’ life. The seeing is life’s activity. The being is life’s activity.

So what do we mean by incarnation. It is an appearance of the source. The bangle is an incarnation of Gold.  Incarnation, is all of us. Reincarnation also has a place in it but not exactly as one would imagine normally. Imagine a leaf. It seems alive. Lets us say it fell down. Now what happens to its life. Did it go back into the tree or did it fall down with the leaf, or isn’t there a life to the leaf.   This is tricky. We assume life only to the whole item. But the leaf springs out like a new baby and falls away like an old person dying. Should it not have a specified life. Will it reincarnate as anything. Will it become a tree or animal etc. It is too hard to figure out. We cut trees, and it grows again, unlike man. If you cut him, that the end.  So in case of trees, we keep quite. It’s seeds become trees. So, did one tree have many latent reincarnating lives hidden?. All this has no meaning. So they will say, reincarnation is only for animals including humans.  But is all really true?

We can agree on incarnation. Life is form and the formless –Life appears as forms. Life incarnates as forms. Now the same life the I am, is the same life that you are. Life seems to show up as all people alive. So all people are incarnation of life. Will they reincarnate. Yes. But the new incarnation may be a product of a mix of many old. Like for example, if we take a big necklace and melt in to make a total of one small necklace, two bangles, two ear rings etc, all would feel, to be the reincarnation of one. But in humans, we find the talking one per piece. This is impossible.

Life is a flow. The appearance of the universe is aliveness or motion or change. The old dies into the new format, like caterpillar to a butterfly. You cant really say one died and the other was born. Only the forms keep changing. The man may dies and spring out hundreds of worms. Surely that ‘one’ he will reincarnate as ‘all those worms’. But they are only a change of forms.

All of creation is life or all creation is an incarnation of life. Every moment there is a falling into life to be incarnated back into life as a new unfolding. The man, dies every moment to be born again new. Incarnation is continuously reincarnating so as to say. This has reference only to the looks or appearance. The source is the same. Always will remain the same.  Life. All of it. Call it consciousness or God or just life.

All joy and suffering is ‘life’ appearing as man suffering or joyous. Its life that is suffering your pain, incarnating as a suffering person. There is only incarnation of ‘Life’ as all appearances, suffering or enjoying. All there is –is incarnation, reincarnating every now and then. Its a continuous process like a new frame of film producing movements to a movie. The reincarnation is of the complete frame of the picture.  The complete new frame is a reincarnation of the old. The complete universe reincarnates as one movement to die as the old and to appear fresh, but seems the old is moving into the new.

So there is incarnation of life as objective world and will reincarnate every moment as the unfolding of the objective world in its appearance in ‘Life’. All there is –is life, incarnating and reincarnating as creation that we see. The ‘we’ that see it is ‘Life ‘incarnated as ‘we’.

60. This and That

In the world that we think, there is, there are two aspects  a) ‘All that there is’ and b) The knowing of all that there is. The term a) is Called ‘This’ and the term b) is called ‘That’.

All that there is or THIS is known only by ‘Knowing’ or by THAT. If there is no knowing of something, that something cannot be known and therefore cannot exist. Knowing that something exists, is only in the ‘knowing’ of it, that, something exist.

In fact, the existence of THIS is its own Knowing as ‘Knowing’ or THAT.

We can say, without THAT, there is no THIS or THAT knows THIS and so THIS ‘is’.

Now, where is the knowing of ‘all that is there’ happening. The knowing of a pen is happening at the pen. The knowing of a tree is happening at the tree. And all this is being explained as if, THIS can be broken up in parts. Nevertheless, knowing the essence of one ,is knowing of all there is to know about existence. Knowing of ‘all there is’ is happening wherever they are and so Knowing is wherever all is there or simply termed ‘everywhere’, if there is such a term.

Coming back to the world, THIS and THAT seems to be two aspects  of ‘ONE’.  We cannot take, ‘all that there is’  separate from its knowing. So, the ‘knowing’ of all that there is, is itself, ‘all that there is’ and cannot be or exist outside of such knowing.  All that there is –is the BEING part and its Knowing is the KNOWING part. Knowing or THAT is BEING or THIS.

So ‘THAT’ is ‘THIS’

Now, all that ‘we are’ is the knowing capacity of ‘all that there is’. SO WE are THAT. Since there is no existence outside ‘knowing’  or THAT, ‘all there is’ is ‘THAT’ or what ‘we are’.

Understanding so far is the complexity, Now for the Simplicity.

There is no existence of ‘all that there is’ –outside of knowing. All that there is –is Manifestation and Knowing of THIS is the Unmanifest. So, Manifestation is the objective aspect of the Unmanifest or  Knowing. THAT or Knowing  or the Unmanifest is ‘objectified’  by all that there is or the ‘Manifest’.

Phenomenon or the Manifest, is objectivisation of the Unmanifest or Knowing or THAT or AWARENSS .

Phenomenon or Something or everything is the Manifestation of Nothing or ‘Knowing’ which is not a thing, objectively, and so not there at all, but exists as an absence of anything present or absent.

So What ‘we are’ or Noumenon is the Unmanifest or Absolute or ‘Knowing’ or ‘That’ of Phenomenon and Non-phenomenon ( which is absence of phenomenon) and are everywhere, wherever phenomenon appears, simply because, phenomenon is the objective appearance of Noumenon.

So, the above is a clarification of THIS and THAT, THAT what ‘we are’ as Objectively THIS or the appearance of the world.

Hope ‘you’ got THAT, because what ‘we are’ is THAT. 

59. Form, Effect and Knowledge.

Wave forms are an effect of energy, seen as transmitted.  Nothing moves as material, when energy is seemed to move. There are like waves in a still pond. The wave is just an effect of sideward movement happening in consciousness or MIND. There is no movement of water sideward. There is only an ‘effect’ or an appearance of such a movement. Such an ‘effect’ is simply termed ‘knowing in consciousness’. There is a knowledge of such effect seeming known somewhere and somehow, which for now, we will just say,  knowing in consciousness. Appearance is a visual, audible, emotional, etc knowing in consciousness.

All waves are such ‘effects’ or ‘knowing’ of appearance. In fact all effects are just appearances or knowing.  This includes effects of emotions, anger ,  sadness or joy etc which are just another category of knowing as appearances.

Seeing, hearing, or sensing is an effect or ‘knowing’. Take taste for example. Its just an effect or appearance. Its just a feeling. Feeling is an effect or appearance. It wont be wrong to say that all appearances are an effect. However so many words are used, as if to mean different, in different parts of usage, that the basis of appearances gets hidden. In a broader sense,  sensation is just an appearance or effect or a knowing in consciousness. Effect, appearance and knowing are same meaning words, used differently to feel different aspects of stories or interpretations.

Form is nothing but shape and colour. Colour is nothing but an effect or knowing of energy wave. Hardness is just an effect of energy wave. Matter, which is just shape or hardness and colour, is just an effect of hardness or energy wave. Atom is just an effect or energy wave. Energy itself is an effect, just like a  wave is an effect in consciousness.

Ultimately, wave is an explanation for transmission of energy and energy is an explanation of a feel  or an effect or knowing in consciousness. Matter is energy and energy is an effect and effect is an appearance in consciousness. Other than an effect, there is no energy or matter whatsoever. So all colour, hardness, taste, sound, smell, sensations are effects of one kind or other in consciousness.

There is nothing like matter and energy. Matter is an appearance of energy, like flame to fire. Mass is an appearance of energy. Mass is an effect in consciousness of energy. Energy itself is some kind of a mysterious effect, because energy, as we think,  doesn’t seem to exist as matter. The measurement of energy is the measurement of the effect. So is an effect appears out of nothing, the measurement can only measure the effect of nothing, interpreted as something, on an assumption that something only can cause an ‘effect’. However when the ‘effect’ itself is an appearance, all appearances are an ‘idea’ of effect.    

What causes the effect is a mystery, because the effect is the cause in itself. Out of nowhere and nothing, comes an effect. A wave has to come out of stillness somehow. The whole creation of energetic filed is a play. The effect or feel in consciousness appears as energy or colour or hardness or shape or emotions or thoughts or movements etc. When broken down backwards, it leads to the measurement of wave forms, which itself is an effect or appearance arising from the unknown source.

Human forms and all forms are a bundle of energy. It moves, expresses dances etc, which are an effect or knowing in consciousness fo such movement. Consciousness is stillness that is managing to know an effect or change. Knowledge itself is an appearance around such an effect or knowing, as if, forming a meaning of the effect or a story and the story of existence survives. There is no-one to know, except the wave maker itself which is just ‘stillness’. But there appears a knowing of effect and story. The effect is called the appearance and the story if called knowledge. 

58. Perceiving the Happening

Consciousness perceives appearances as objective things in an objective creation. The sensation is of forms. Visual forms, audible forms, thought forms etc, that appear and disappear in /to consciousness. The whole spectrum of sensing is converted to perception to memory, by making concepts of what is sensed, as if to a conceptual 'me'. Sensation is sensed and perception is projected and then re-cognised to memory. The material of existence is nothing but sensations, as if 'matter'. We will analyse sensing and perception as one and call it perception only to clarify an understanding of 'what is happening' even though nothing is happening.

Perception is of wholeness, which includes all scenes, sounds, feelings etc. However, when seen in parts, there appear to be two or three type of perception. One type of perception, may be called with ‘form’ or is objective in nature, or those that seems to have direct reaction to many human forms, in the vicinity of the part perception. Like sound, visuals etc. These  ‘appear’  to be commonly perceived by human forms. In reality, the human forms appear to react commonly to perception of sound and visuals. The second kind of perception seems personal to each human form and are not common to more than one form. Such perception is of emotions, anger, fear, love, pain, depression etc. These forms of perception are formless and come as ‘feelings’ personal to each body, there by directly reacting or expressing the human form as if reacting to the outside world of objects.

All the time there has to be a combination of perception, to make the play of appearance more dynamic. The formless perception and those with forms appear parallelly in consciousness. The snake appears outside and fear appears inside the body boundary, making a meaning, as if, the fear has been aroused by the seeing of the snake. However the seeing of the snake and feeling of the fear has to be aroused by one source, called consciousness in consciousness.

There is one more set of appearance which is also formless, termed as thoughts. These make meaning to the world of objective appearances to give them a feel of reality.  All appearances are perceived with some sort of meaning, as if reality is given to parts of perception, as if in a story and such meaning or stories, seem to be stored as memory. So stories happen to appearances, as they appear, as if happening to a ‘ me’  and are stored as memory. Events seem real with time and space, and so while adding meaning to appearances,  a ‘spacial and temporal  effect’ within their respective  meaning  also gets made. If two objects are seen in one ‘seeing’ they are split as if, seen ‘here and there’ or one seeing the other. When not seen, it seems to have an effect as if to believe,  seen outside of the current seeing limits, like somewhere else. The continuity of appearances ‘seems’ to have more meaning as a duration in the meaning making , as if to mean ‘events are happening’.  Such ‘events’  are added as the story for memory making. Thoughts are a method of using such memorised ‘events’ or meanings to perception, to link it to an assumed past and future probabilities, to make more complete meanings. When nothing seems to be happening, a thought form appears  with its associated meaning, as if giving meaning to all that is perceived, to make into one common story, “The story of me”. It uses, past and future parts of story made, to makes seem, a continuity of the story of me. This pattern of perception, seems meaningful, when IT can objectify or make meaning,  to this form as a person and other forms as objects that make up a world.

So within perception happening, like a dream, a ‘me’ gets set up here and the world of objects get set up there. Suitable emotions react the forms, as if forms perceive and suitable thoughts are perceived to make more room for stories with space and time.

This is the sub story trying to explain the main story of perception. Loll.

57. Awareness, Focus of awareness and Memory

Awareness is aliveness. This creation is alive, in terms of knowing it as an experience. The knowing of Creation is the Creation in the knowing. Or knowing of content feels as if content to knowing, even though knowing is all there is but feels like content is all there is and knowing of it is unspoken about, to hide the fact that contents are just the knowing of IT.
So Awareness is a Potential and consciousness is a way that experiencing physically happens to register in memory. So experiencing to memory, is by use of consciousness, as if consciousness was playing out subject object format in experiecing content of creation. Creation needs a fromat to experience itself or know itself. It cannot experience itself, unless it plays out one object of creation as a subject to other objects of creation. So it spreads a web of consciousness so that the arising in consciousness is happening as of to some one.
There is link between Awareness, focus of awareness or attention and memory. That is how life works, ‘seemingly’  ‘to’ this human form. For example, take a conversation with your friend or relative. Imagine that he is talking to you and you are listening. It is not possible to be 100% attentive to all of the conversation. The 'focus of attention' may shift in awareness to some external sounds or thoughts. While this is happening, even though there is an awareness of the friend talking, you have missed out, that portion of speech, when the focus was elsewhere. What does this mean?, You are unable to recall, the portion of unfocused speech from memory, of what the friend said. So the focus of attention or simply attention in awareness is a mechanism for storage into memory.  Storage to memory is what seems to give reality to perception, as it can be recalled from memory, as if real. The rest, seems illusory, as if, no-one noticed it happening.  So if there was no focus at all, on any part of the appearance in awareness, all of IT was an illusion and the reality, within the illusion, seems to be the that part of the illusion, which we can say is memorable. If reality, depends ONLY on memory, or ability to recall, then, it is totally a BELIEVED way of accepting reality, What IS –cannot be illusion or reality, because both reality and unreality is still within what is happening, and what is happening is THIS, which awareness is as consciousness, playing out what is happening as THIS.  

Memory is a set of meaningful experiences. Meaning making is the experience itself. Even when someone is talking, the meanings of the speech  is ‘the experience’. Without meaning there is no experience. Many times, a meaning is made, as if to mean, meaningless. Without meanings, there is no recording to memory of any such happening. More the meaning, better the experience and better the memory. Memory is nothing but a set of experiences and experience is nothing but a set of meaningful activities, arising in awareness, saved as memory. Also , meanings can only happen, when there is focus ( which can be only be for a small part of wholeness) and so can be considered as nothing but areas of  focus, to the appearances in awareness.

The design of all experiences are based on a mechanism, that the experience is seemingly happening ‘to’ an entity. Life features itself ‘as an entity, by means of ‘focus’ of attention, as if a separate entity with freewill and choice, has a capacity to focus. The focus of attention, seems to be the ‘focus-er’ of attention , as a separate entity, that is seemingly capable of doing this. The experiences or meanings are regarded happening to someone called ‘me’.

Meaning making of appearance or part of appearance is another name for story making of seemingly, what is happening, as if, from  a personal point of view. When such meaning happens automatically, it ‘feels’ as if a ‘person’ also is happening to this body, automatically, as its complimentary meaning.  It is a play of life, featuring ‘this’ person, as if separate from life, that can ‘see’ life as separate from this entity.  The splitting of wholeness into ‘separation’ is the illusory play of ‘Life’s intelligence, to create a separate focus attention, on its own play, thereby, making many many meanings or stories, out of wholeness, which is the ‘nature’ of the play.

Meaning making is for memory. To make meaning, time and space is used as a illusory factor. Out of sight, is still ‘believed’ to be within ‘mental sight’ or imagination. Within a mental acceptance as ‘at another place in space. So space ‘gets built up in memory. Duration of events as recorded to memory, giving a ‘feel’ of sequence, within memory. So the whole of time and space is the ‘meaning maker of memory’.  All objects in wholeness, seem to be constantly changing their formats of appearance.  Subjecting these formats to memory, with time-space meaning gives a ‘feel’ of ‘real story’ to such appearances in awareness.

So the whole Universe is a ‘cooked up’ story of illusion that is constantly in a flux of change, and the ‘feel’ of the story, becomes the feel of reality. Since ‘Life’ as a human form, behaves as if, meaning is happening to him, as a relationship to the outside world, a feeling of entity ‘seems’ to continuous. 

This ‘feel’ of separation, is only a play in awareness and when such separate focused meaning falls away, of the illusion that is happening, a new pattern arises. In the new pattern, there is no focus of attention on any particular portion in awareness. The whole appearance ‘seems’ to appear, with wholeness itself as focus. Since such wholeness cannot become a story, there is no recording of such event to memory. Without recording to memory, it ‘seems’ it is happening to ‘no-one’. Also there is no sense of time in this format, because time was only a creation for the recall in memory, as if there was a sequence to recording to memory. Now this state of perceiving wholeness, seems timeless and spaceless due to non-focus and non-recording to memory. The mind soon tries to make meaning of this non-focus, as if , it could be a new way of focus, may be without time and space, which could be a new way of making making to memory. Then the new ‘feel’ of entity comes back as if a new type of experience is being recorded. This new type of sensing wholeness comes without a strong sense of separation of the fictional entity. The true nature of creation is then witnessed as wholeness, wherein all ‘persons’ are ‘known’ to be a illusory for the purpose of feeling separate and to experiencing individual stories.  This becomes a biggest joke, that creation seems to be playing on itself. However the new pattern of sensing wholeness has ‘Lovable’ feel.

56. Thought and Effect.

The effect of thought is different from thought itself, as if, a thought pops up from somewhere and an effect from somewhere else creeps in and jointly create the so called thought effect. Thought by itself, cannot understand a thought. Neither can it understand the thought that is happening nor the next thought nor the previous thought. There are just words, or images, that cannot understand itself nor the previous nor the next. However, magically, meanings and expressions seem get attached to perception and through such thoughts, as if thoughts are interpreting our purpose in life and playing out the 'me' to negotiate the 'outer world of objects" .

Thought is an intuitive knowing and it suddenly adds learnt meanings so that the final understanding is veiled to feel a real me separate from the real world out there. Its very magical. It is difficult to actually find out the exact process how this happens as, it would be impossible for us to separate ourselves from thoughts and know what is happening. All of the knowing and experiencing is just an arising in aliveness and animating this body as if  a separate 'person'. 

Let us take an example. Say you are standing on a high bridge over a river. You tied some rubber cord to your legs, like in a bungee jump. Now you jump into the river. The feel of the jump is actually heart sinking as in the case of great fear or jumping without the tying of the legs, but the thought of being 'safe' with the rubber cord, comes in as if this was lovely feeling and assumes a ‘nature’ of thrill, as if different from fear. Then you go around telling that bungee jumping is thrilling.

This is actually how our system works. Whether you see a lovely sunset or a bad road accident, your heart skips a beat or sinks, become breath taking  and that feel is decoded as a thrilling event or a frightful event as the case may be, to link the  story of ‘seeing’. In all cases, it is breath taking, racing of the heart beat etc. The thrill or the fear of seeing a snake within your reach, has the same special effect ( or emotional effect). Meaning to say, the simulation in the body, for most of the ‘seeing’  is almost the same. Its like simulation of the bike, in a gaming session of kids.  According to the movement of the bike in the video,  the physical bike on which the child sits, ‘vibrates’ a little. No matter, what the bike in the video does, jumping a bump, or crashing the divider, or head on collision, the simulation in the physical bike is the same. The child still feels the real thrill of crash or jump.

In case, due to some reason, there is not a synchronising of the ‘seeing’, with thought and ‘feelings’, events will continue to happen, as if without meanings or attachments. Like in a dream.  Thoughts are mostly worded descriptions, as if, the ‘seeing’ was an event that was effecting an entity within the body. So arising of a thought, is necessarily describing the event with a judgement of good or bad or ugly or dangerous, seemingly to an entity, thereby ‘keeping’ a fictional entity bound to a body. Parallelly, the ‘feel of fear or thrill’ will rhyme with the ‘seeing’ to feel as if, it is a ‘part and parcel’ of the ‘seeing’ and thinking .

Thoughts narrate a story to match the ‘seeing’ as if an event, happening to an individual. The simulation of the ‘feel’ of fear or thrill makes the entire package of ‘seeing’  as if a real event to a ‘me’. Over a period of conditioning, the feel  of fear or emotion automatically gets associated with thoughts also. A small child may allow a snake to pass on its body, feeling may happen, break taking may happen, but, since the child had no story of itself or of that of a snake, the event could not be meaningful.  In such a case, the event doesn’t seem to happen at all. Without thought, there is no story and also no event. Even if there was an event, without the story, it is regarded as a un-noticed event. So ‘noticing’ has to happen along with story making and conversely, story making is noticing. If you seem to ‘notice’ an enemy in the other person, you can be sure, you are having a story that happened already.

Thoughts are packets of stories. And stories are nothing but meaning making of the ‘seeing’.  Over a period of time, it is ‘assumed’ that all ‘seeing’ are meaningful or events or stories and so, all ‘seeing’ are converted to stories. So every seeing starts to attach a meaning, reason, cause, effect etc, in short called ‘a story’ to the seeing. This happens until it reaches a stage that, ‘seeing without their stories’, becomes no seeing at all, as if gone un-noticed. The meaning making or thought happening around the seeing and effect happening at the body, seems to be converting the whole seeing into an meaningful experience. So the experience includes the ‘seeing’ of it, the story or thought of it and the effect or fear or emotion of it. After a while, thoughts themselves start producing inter –related stories, connecting one event or experience to another and these more stories, seems to generate their worth of feeling of fear and emotions. So  the feel, that was previously seeming to happen only with ‘seeing’, now  starts happening with seeing of thoughts alone, as if, such event was happening  in reality, along with its pound of fleshy ‘feelings’. So the ‘thought’ or a money lender, coming home for his money becomes as power packed, as if, the money lender came in ‘person’.

If we are able to see the subtleness of thoughts and feelings and how they have their effect, we are able to put a wedge and isolate thought and its effect or the feel of emotions that seem to be generated in the body. Once this wedge is in place, the system that automatically generates feelings to thoughts or vice versa  (generates thoughts to feeling),  gets known to be a very artificial simulator. To a large extent, this can help in receding thoughts to the background for a seeing and also recede feeling to the background for a given thought, seen ‘as thought’. So it is possible, to have pure seeing ( or may be not),  with some understanding of how the body and thoughts are involved in the ‘seeing’, thereby automatically creating a time gap for associated emotions, thoughts, memory, etc, to synchronise with the ‘seeing’, thereby reducing its punch. Then the mind is said to be ineffective in story making.

Without stories and the special effects of bodily feelings, Existence takes a new format. This format is more interesting than the mind offered story of Existence.  The worst part of the story, that there is a ‘me’ to which the story is woven around, also falls away and this has the power to drop the illusory separation, of forms and also ‘me’ and the ‘other,’ because ‘separation’ is the fabric of storytelling. Life without stories or concept is seen as a non volition happening of events or as ‘pure seeing’ without concepts and separation, which is Existence itself or ‘all that is happening here and now’. This has a feel of an illusion to what is happening, and the reality of it was just in the story telling of the illusion or just ‘mental.

55. Wholeness and Separation.

This is a function of the mind,  that keeps the entity ‘on’ for seeking.  Once you get to the root of this functioning, you have seen through the whole game running around as separate.

Finiteness is imaginary boundary, that is happening in the sensing, due to change of sensation.  So change is noticed, a boundary is noticed, to separate one sensation from another or to separate a ‘change’ of the same type of sensation. 

Normally more than one sensation seems to be noticed for a given boundary.  Either in colour, shape, feel or hardness, taste, smell etc. Whenever there is a change of each sensation or a combination, an imaginary boundary is drawn and finiteness is assumed. It is actually a need for focus of attention, to understand or make a story around the sensation, that can create a  ‘save as’ file for memory, which we call its separate ‘thingness’. Its just a concept or temporary meaning agreed for communication.

The mind also has the capacity, to combine certain boundaries that form a pattern and make a another imaginary boundary, like for a group. This would be given a ‘new’ meaning for purpose of ‘save as’ file into memory.

So separateness and wholeness of certain separate forms, is a preoccupation of the mind. In order to enable the change, to be part of memory, meaning is given to separation, to make it easy, like we give names to files for ‘saving as’ to memory. The folder may be taken when group formation takes place. However, these are purely imaginary or for the ease of memory and does not have separate existences of being separate individual existence of such a separate block that is separated.

Let us take some examples.  Let us say, we see a tree. We can ‘feel’ tree as a whole unit, because  space divides the tree from the rest. At the point of division, there is a change in the pattern of sensing. The space is softer, light in colour and so on, as compared to the tree. So ‘space is not the tree’ is a meaning for memory. Now within the tree, the leaf is green, softer, shaped smaller, as compared to a twig, and the twig to a branch, branch to a trunk, to the root, fruit, flower etc. Within the flower, there is petals, sepals, stigma, pollen and what not. So the wholeness is the tree, the separation is root, trunk and the rest.

The mind switches over from separation to wholeness of the tree, depending on the ‘present’ story that is needed to be ‘broadcasted’. If there is a cutting of tree to make the road, it does so as a whole tree,  and if robbing mangoes, is the ‘news’ then it uses parts above the ground.

However, when we see tree, as a whole, we experience it as a whole. When we focus on the parts, we experience ‘as’ parts and not as a whole. But in the whole scheme of things, we cannot say, if tree should be conceived as wholeness or as a assembly of parts. When seen as a tree, the separation of parts dissolve and when seen as parts, the wholeness dissolves. They seem to individually exist in separation. But in actuality, they can only exist ‘as whole’. The separation is imagination for story, as if they ‘can’ exist separate. So separation is and is not and neither, from the point of reality. It is the feel that decides the case and it is the case that decides the feel. Cant say, what comes first or why.

So we are able to appreciate the wholeness of the flower, than its parts, wholeness of the tree, than its parts and so on.  So the whole ‘seeing’ is a point of  ‘focus’ and when the focus is on the whole, it seems whole, and focus is on parts, it seems as small as that part, but for that ‘part’ it seems whole, as required for a presentation of story.

Separation needs concepts or meanings for memory and story. Such knack used, is not to be taken as a separate entity or thingness. Thingness of the separate boundary, is a story pattern, to memorise a boundary, and such thingness, maintains the story as long as it can maintain the separation. The belief is separation is fully connected to the belief in the story. We cannot see, in parts, if the story, doesn’t demand such seeing. We do see ‘flower’ as a whole, but there is no flower that can be seen, if plucked or separated as parts. Where did the ‘flower’ go?,  Did it disappear, did it disintegrate. If it did exist separately, where did it go. There is just no talk about it.

‘Thingness’ is the key to separation. If you don’t see the petals, automatically, the flower will be seen, or the plant or the garden or the place or the country or the planet or the universe.  So whenever, wholeness appears, separation disappears, separation being thingness, also disappears. Thingness and entity is same phenomenon. So absence of thingness, emptying of forms, is the key to wholeness. Emptying out oneself of an entity, empties all thingness of all forms, and what is left is just the wholeness of what is happening, without a story to it.
