The move from personhood to “no-thing-ness” is a little like rocket research in the early stages. One tries a propulsion system, and it catapults the rocket up, but the weight of the fuel tank, earth’s gravity and the resistance of the atmosphere is too overwhelming, the rocket falls back into the ocean. After many attempts we succeed and manage to let go off the fuel tank as we penetrate friction-less stratosphere.
Our conditioning weighs heavily. We might say that we carry the accumulated struggles and wisdom of our forefathers with us, not to mention the confusion of our thought-system and the conditioning of our environment. Yet, lifted by the giants who broke free before us we try: love, seeing, wisdom, religion and guru worship, examining our conditioning, until one day the explosion happens and we are free.
There is a Force embedded in life as is, yet beyond us, that is in constant communication with us. It is as the invite of the stratosphere to break free from what is holding us back and connect. This friction-less being is our Home and we can hardly remember the fettered life from a distant past. How to get there? Well, keep trying and hang out with likeminded who embark on the quest where few bold wo(men) have gone before.
