Reflection 243

Welcome!


Including All

This immense and self-aware emptiness that I find here isn’t just empty. It’s empty-for-filling. Ultimately no-one and nothing is left out. In fact I’m not well, not quite sane, not ‘all there’, not whole till I’m the Whole. Nor, to put it another way, is the Universe whole while I split it into an observer here and an observed there, into a me-part and a not-me part. To enjoy the Universe as a Universe, and no longer to suffer from it as a Duoverse, I have to be none of it centrally , and all of it peripherally. They are two sides of the coin. (Douglas Harding. To Be And Not To Be.)
