April 16, 2011

"As long as you are enmeshed in the tribulations of a particular personality, you can see nothing beyond it. But ultimately you will come to see that you are neither the particular nor the universal, you are beyond both. As the tiny point of a pencil can draw innumerable pictures, so does the dimensionless point of awareness draw the contents of the vast universe. Find that point and be free." N.M.

"I" dissolve into "am" like Bassui's snowflake dissolves into pure air.

I take a daily injection of N.M. to inoculate my true self against my personality. The low, dim hum of "am" pervades existence. It rises and falls just above and below the noise floor between manifest and unmanifest. I am like that woman who heard music in colors and tastes. I feel the low, dim hum without hearing it.

No matter how slight, if it is perceived it is false. My ego does somersaults behind my back.

Q: What will remain with me if I let go my memories?
M: Nothing will remain.
Q: I am afraid.
M: You will be afraid until you experience freedom and its blessings.

There is the last hurdle and what calls to us from the other side.
