Unconditionality


Understand that there is no distinction between the spiritual and the physical, we make that distinction (and many others) for the sake of understanding; though distinctions actually end up clouding the very issue they are meant to clarify. We separate ourselves from ourselves in dualism, we separate ourselves from the source of life (god) in humanism, and we separate ourselves from the universe in materialism.

We pay attention to the particles while within the space are the real powerful influences. We are all separate when we ignore this space, though unified when we realize that we all share the same space. We are

as small as the collection of particles we call our body, we are as large as the space that connects us to each other and to the cosmos. Our universe is 99.99% space, we only see it as solid because, in our world of space-time, we see those particles in 50,000 places at one time.

Of course the writings of the Tao Te Ching relate this very well:

Become totally empty

Quiet the restlessness of the mind

Only then will you witness everything unfolding from emptiness

See all things flourish and dance in endless variation

And once again merge back into perfect emptiness -

Their true repose

Their true nature

Emerging, flourishing, dissolving back again

This is the eternal process of return

Well that was fast! Don't get me wrong, I like speed, however September flew by!
Here I sit on Alki, just this morning I was strolling San Francisco....the weeks before were crazier than imagined and lets be honest, there wasn't much time to imagine anything outside of schedule.

My father marries his girlfriend of 20 years this friday and the party starts tomorrow. One German unites w/another, and as best (wo)man, I've planned a special dish breaking event to start. Everyone keeps asking if I've got my speech planned.....scheisse. I don't have the nerve to admit that I am only one steppin it at a time. Not much projection or reflection, yet.

Which means Yes, I'll start thinking about speech services NOW, and whether it should be all words, maybe some Acro demonstration or even a musical? The guests are in for a real treat- Pappa, you're the best!
