Who are you?

in #self9 years ago

Having found the Self,

I see the the Self in others, in any creature with eyes -

and it goes much further than that!

Having disappeared, there is noone to praise, there is noone culpable.

I am responsible for all action in the universe whatsoever;

Trust others with their own lives.

Who are the others but the nothingness I am?

Every creature is different from the next, yet obviously the same -

Which instrument of illusion is being played?

There is this illusion, this personality. There is that illusion, that personality.

These illusions are the consequences of language, which enables symbolic thought to happen.

Most of us know not who we are through the linguistic constructs (egos) we help each other create for ourselves.

These constructs are as real as poltergeists.

If the linguistic construct is temporarily destroyed,

who is it then in that state to know one knows one knows?

There isn’t anyone. Noone knows because there isn’t anyone to know.

There is simply the knowing as such.

The illusion of being someone is created entirely by ourselves, enabled by language.

Liberate your Self from this self.

'I' is a conceptual construct, part of the membrane of a linguistic fabric that constitutes our illusory personality structures, which is confused with what we really Are.

There isn’t a who - never was! That’s an idea which is the consequence of being gifted the immense power of language.

A language acting as a lens by which the real world is filtered down into duality.

It either Is or Isn't! Both and neither are true.

To realize this is to be born again to your true mind - Nothingness.

Beyond the first division of zero and one thou art.

Just as a bowl is most useful when empty,

a mind is most potentially fertile when occupied by nothing.
