Thank you for showing me who I am!

 See, you have proposed to me that there is another state of being where I am not there, right? And when I am there, this doesn’t make any sense!

(David Bohm in conversation with J. Krishnamurti—The Ending of Time, 1980, Conversation 4 out of 12, available on YouTube)

 

The communication of the highest insights can only be done in parables or paradoxes. It’s because with revelation the system switches from personhood to “no-thing-ness”. The former doesn’t touch the latter, while the latter is of a higher dimension which also penetrates the former.

 

All problems, frictions, attractions and aversions in day-to-day life are designed to show us who we are. Knowing who “we” are is a necessary condition—it’s unfortunately not sufficient—to reaching this state of “no-thing-ness”. So let’s start by having a look a what is truly going on.

 

There is no friction, aversion or excitement in Oneness, life is simply as it is. So, take a good look around today and see “your” struggles and excitements. Take also another look and see Oneness at play. I thank life for showing me who I am beyond the “me, myself and I” excitement and misery.
