That
Which cannot be described
Seems often to be labeled
Nothing..as
Nothing synonymous with
Everything..as
Already this..
All labels burning as
They are applied...🔥
That
Which cannot be described
Seems often to be labeled
Nothing..as
Nothing synonymous with
Everything..as
Already this..
All labels burning as
They are applied...🔥
Pointers..
All words appear
As pointers..
Pointing to that
Which is already
The pointing...
Colors
Are infinitely varied
They're seemingly
What's happening...
Travel
Often undertaken to
Find the new..
While the new
Is what seems happening...
It's language
Which may seem
To build the edges..
Nothing with
Impossible edges..
Perspectives
With no separation
Are the magic
Of the impossible...
Stories which
Are not empty
Are believed apparently
With desperation...
The weather
Shields and un-shields
The sun
Apparently..
What if a concept arose:
The sun appears as the weather?
Seems a good story..perhaps
As good as the same story
Using other words...
Polarization
Word of the year
Separation up front..
Separation appears
In love and war..in
News headlines and
These words..
Seemingly what is
Until appearance
Reveals what isn't...
Resonate
The word
May be used to try
To de-conceptualize
A message presented..
Yet no word
Can do that..
Each word is a
One word story
In which the
Storied split
Shows up again...
Nothing
Is conventionally
Dismissed..the
Missing solidity
Is ignored in favor
Of the solidity
Of all experience..
Yet the dismissed
Is the sought of all
Seeking..an eternal
Story of nothing...
Words
Seem to arise
Declaring independence
Naming everything
Which cannot be named..
An amazing story
Storyteller unknown...
Reading past writings
With lack of recognition..
Just the rising
Of those words..
Many seem strange indeed
Words rising and gone
Life and death in the
Strokes of the keys...
A story
Of edges blurring
Distinctions dwindling
Nothing on the horizon..
A journey with a view
Fading fast..
Putting the book
Back on the shelf...
This
Is nothing..
It may
Seem to be
Something
But that
Something
Has always
Been nothing..
The key to
The castle...
Death and life
Are not separated..
Although there are
Appearances which
Seem to demur
In storyland
In which this
Story appears...
Paradox
May seem a gift
Of a story containing
Paradox..its
Impossibility may be
Discarded or
Suddenly embraced..
No explanation but
Perhaps resonance and
Gratitude...
Paradox
Is a story
Of dissonance
Perhaps ending
An illusion of
Separation...
"The paradox is that the seeker seeking freedom is itself the root of bondage. "
~Emily Snow
Words
May seem to
Cut and slice
Or even break
What is already
Complete..
Until those
Words themselves
Appear as
Already complete...
All we have are stories
Amazing stories.. Why?
Despite no-separation
Stories reply with a
Playlist of separation..but
Stories may have a secret
A paradoxical pointing
To no-separation..
Which may seem as
Freedom not understood...
Nothing
Appears as
Everything..
Some might say
Separation is
In that concept..
How about:
Everything
Is already
Unknowing..?
Still seems to
Be that
Separation..
Abandon ship..?
Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date.
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature’s changing course untrimmed.~~
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st,
Nor shall Death brag thou wand’rest in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow’st.
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
~~Shakespeare, Sonnet 18
Reminders
Photos and words
Of stories of
Long ago may seem as
Beginnings and endings
In the dream of living...
Life's restrictions
May seem as a
Binding of freedom..
But to consider:
Unbounded freedom
Appearing as
Bound and unbound...
What appears
Makes no sense
Because what appears
Is everything already
Including the question:
What could be more..?
Disrepair and disorder
In an image or story
Make it appear as an
Outcome of before..
With no before these are
Arisings displaying
Death as life
Life as death...
The search may
Appear as beautiful
With the trappings of
Artful decoration
Cathedrals and settings..
Perhaps a special beauty
Or a hint of the
Beauty of everything...
Pathways
Are the guides
Appearing in life
Which remind us
We are not yet there..
Or that the pathway
And the there are
Already here...
Peeling paint
Provides a glimpse
Of what's underneath..
That's a story
Of finding something
That is and is not it
Just like the
Peeling paint...
Fractals
And the non duality message..
Nothing is everything
Is the general story
In which nothing and
Everything are the same..
Sameness iterates as
Similar differences
Which might
Appear in literature
And science or in
Those cloud patterns..
Iterated stories appearing as
Fractals..chips off the
Storied formula..and
Not even that...
An Image
From the past
May suggest stories
Of what might have been..
Empty appearances
Arising as did
The image...
Narratives
Point to that
Which cannot be
Described and
To that which
Cannot be the
Object of
Pointing...
A tree
Is nothing..
How might
That be known..?
It cannot
And it cannot
Be known that
It cannot be
Known..and...
Pointing to nothing
Is a story which may be
Intended as erasure..
But nothing stands
As a word..suggesting
The futility of a word
To be more than a word..
Yet it might be said
The appearance
Of a word is empty..
Hence.the dilemma
And not...
Decay
Recalls the antonym
Flourish
And these words
Not separated
Mark the futility
Of describing what is
Happening...
Unknowing
Can't be known
Or not known..
However
Unknowing may
Appear as a story
Of one seeming
To know that
Unknowing
Can't be known
Or can be known...
Nothing
Appears as a story
A story all the way down
Nothing all the way down...
In separation
Life seems as something..
Yet there is nothing
Whispering as something
Missing...
No separation
So what can be said..?
Nothing
Everything..
Stunning...
Conversation..
There is
No other to listen
No other to speak..
As the story rolls
No other appears
As conversation..
Not figureoutable...
Self help
Appeals to the one
Seeking new paths
To end the
Seeking which is
Already ended in
This appearance
Of self help...
Humility..
Humble work
For humble pay
And seeming joy
In the work..
Nothing appearing
As joyful nothing..
Pearl of great price...
Amazing..!
An exclamation
In a story of one
Finding there is
Nothing
Extraordinary
And no one
To make the
Finding...
Amazing..!
An exclamation
In the play
Of the one
Who is not there
To make the
Exclamation...
Opposites
Often defined
As cousins of
Dark and light..
However
Separation's appearances
Seem to cast opposites
As differences
Of all variety and stripe..
So that opposites are
Synonymous with
Separation...
The simple paradox
Of no separation:
The question
Of what this is
Dissolving in a
Separation story
That never happened...
Thoughts
Appear unexpectedly
Spontaneously..
Not for someone
Not for no one..
No explanation
Paradoxical story
Freedom from
Understanding
Or not...
Identifying
With a story
Is the attraction
Offered by
Separation..
Searching and
Attaching to a
Satisfying story
Is the path of
Knowing in search
Of not-knowing...
Nothing
Appearing..
That's
Everything...
Nothing
As stories..
That tells
It all...
Everything
Is everywhere..
Not explainable
Nothing more...
Death
As nothing
Appears as
Life...
Nothing
Is the territory
So are the
Maps...
No
Appears as
Yes...
When
Nothing appears
It won't be known...
Nothing appears
As no-thing...
Non-duality
Is about nothing
About which
Nothing can be said..
Nothing
Cannot be described
Every description
Is already nothing...
Nothing
As a word
May seem to
Be something
As would be
A substitute word..
What is nothing?
Well..nothing at all
And not even that
And not even
And not
And
Nothing is the end
Ending of searching
And of course
Nothing cannot be
Found...
A polarity
Nothing and everything
Without separation
Nothing dancing...
Nothing is happening
Really..?
Happening is nothing
Happening...
What's between
Seeming polarities
Is nothing..
If nothing moves..yes
Seeming polarities...
Life seems about
Coming to terms
With nothing
With no terms available...
Much ado about nothing!
