I lie at the beach; I see the waves rolling in and the blue sky. I see the sand beneath the reclining beach chair I am sitting on, and I see the hottie smiling at me. Sounds can be created, but if it wasn’t for the missing scent and feeling of sand, I probably wouldn’t even realize that I wear Apple Vision Pro.
Technology still hasn’t caught up where we got after the fall. There is an institution evolution, conditioning and we ourselves have created that produces that illusion for us. Evolution told us that we like sex; cold winters nudged us to crave fatty food, and our insecurities beg us to be the boss.
This “center” that we perceive as a real “me, myself and I” is completely made up, and we encounter a completely different world once we penetrate and dissolve it. But how? Every pleasurable thought strengthens its existence, and every painful encounter begs us to stay away from it.
How to break free from the notion of “me, myself and I”? We can inquire into the self and peel the onion until no-thing remains. We can see without a center. We can connect with our heart energy that circumvents the “center”. We can ask, “Is that so?”, whenever pleasure or pain pops up.
Take off the vision goggles and experience life as is. It can be done.
