Yep, that's pretty close to the map I made based on discussions with Enigma. I guess, imaginary maps provide some temporary relief when we imagine we're lost! Of course, the problem with imagining we're lost is that no map can actually lead us home. ;D But we can explore the dream and make a better map! ;D |

Can someone explain image #2, please? I could write a book about it   A few points: - The whole circle represents oneness as imagined through human eyes - The thinking mind is like water waves - Oneness is older than time (stars and galaxies in the beard) - The human is oneness itself (the circle looks like a humanoid face) |

Portto, what is the 'hehe' part in image #7? Is that when the real fun starts?

Marie and I had a squirrel satsang in the rain yesterday. We were standing under a tree but all the squirrels were soggy. Anyhoo, I was saying there's no issue about being conscious if I see a beautiful tree here and you see an ugly tree, cuz these are different perspectives on the same tree and perspectives come out of our uniqueness and without those differences there would be no relating at all. All perspectives can be embraced as 'valid'. Where it becomes problematic for all involved is when I see a tree and you see a giraffe because now you're not offering a perspective on a common (level 2) observation, but instead viewing entirely from imagination. (level 3) |
