Timelessness
No time
Mysteriously
Stages the conditions
Of time and seemingly
Appears as the stories
Comic and tragic which
are the stuff of dreams
(to borrow a few words)~~
The Timeless Wonder (Andreas Muller)
What we call the natural reality is nothing else than what seems to be happening. It is what naturally is and is not. There is nothing beyond or within that - no absolute reality, no essence, no God. Liberation is the turning out that the separate self and the experience of a separate world is a dreamt reality. Seen from within the dream, the dream is everything - a world of "me-ness", knowledge, longing and the impression of doership and observation. The seeking drive cannot be separated from its source which is the sense of being a separate self. While the seeker hopes to break free from its limitations and its sense of lack, it rather is a closed loop. While assuming otherwise, the seeker stays within its world of experiencing and knowing, within seeking and separation. While it desperately tries to overcome separation, it only confirms its illusory presence.
Liberation, in contrast, is the loss of all that seemed to be known including the sense of one's existence. Apart from the loss of all known, it is the loss of hopes and above all the loss of one big dream: To finally overcome separation and arrive in a state of fulfilment. Yet, the collapse of that seeming separate energy happens despite all efforts to overcome it. It rather is a letting go of oneself which, however, is not done by anyone. Yet, the dream of seeking is as much what seems to be happening as everything else is. However, it is a dream.
The natural reality is timeless. The natural appearance of whatever appears to be happening knows nothing about separation and the overcoming of it. It knows nothing about unfulfillment, enlightenment or liberation. It all is effortlessly and unconditionally itself.
