Reading zero of the Gopher burrows I follow, came across this Phlog article:
gopher://sdf.org/0/users/gef/reflections/light
In it there is this passage:
(...)
I always like that song, it's very
non-dualistic in it's Christian way. If
everything is consciousness, what is mine,
what is not mine. What are my emotions and
other emotions. Why would I take everything
so personal, when it's all a current, coming
in from all directions. Ancestor, partner,
friend, other people, all create waves around
me, (...)
I loved the way that gef expresses, the part of "Why would I take everything so personal, when it's all a current, coming in from all directions.". Lately, I haven't really given much thought to the "being a current"... I am unsure if I ever gave proper importance to this superb thought.
Although, I do have this phrase in my PC:
"Saying 'your thought' is the same as saying to a funnel 'your water'." -
... which evokes water, which also creates currents. In fact, maybe only water (in its liquid and gaseous state) is able to create currents. No; orbits are also currents...
Either way, I have very little to add. Just a "Thank you" gef!
