In some texts, there is talk of ten dimensions, immeasurable kalpas, and Indra’s net. What are all these texts talking about? These are all trying to say we are an expression of life. That we are all living. Essentially by being, we are creating. We are the creation, and the creator.

You walk around meeting people, and you begin to feel something. Something stirs in your stomach, causing an emotional response, the so called gut-reaction. When you notice this, you notice something about your situation, something pivotal, something logic can’t see.
People. They emit a certain vibe. Some call it energy. You begin feeling, and searching out energy that feels ‘nice’ to you. You sometimes chat to those with other energies when you feel like you can help change or create their energy. This feeling of energy between all people, with essentially different levels of different values of different conditions, leads us to the current state at this moment called life.
When you feel and see it like this, everything cannot help but seem like the entire universe, indeed the multitude of universes. Every moment contains another, and is infinitely forever unfolding. Indra’s net forms all around you, dancing and weaving, displaying flashes of colour called events of life.
Everything, in every moment, then becomes a teaching. A look at how things are. How they connect, beyond the forms of the person, to see that moment, to not bring anything to it, but for you just to see. As these events unfold you begin to feel the path under your feet. You no longer feel lost, you feel found in the nothing-ness.
When we can live life this way, we no longer see good or bad. Happy and Sad lose their power, we see them as values, understanding that they too will soon end, and something else will begin. This isn’t done in a sad sense, nor is it a desire to hold on to what’s here. It’s a simple acceptance of reality. The freedom to enjoy the state as is, regardless of knowing it will not last.

“You no longer feel lost, you feel found in the nothing-ness.” Well put, Wade. I never dreamed that my path would wind up in nothingness. The all-pervading sense of being a somebody or a something has faded over time, and now nothingness appears to be “it” whatever that really means. But that nothingness is so rich and full! Who knew? I’m enjoying more and more discovering the emptiness that is everything around. Nice post.
Isn’t this something. How do we know this? An automatic energy-frequency field within reach. At first when it occurs, your saying to yourself; “Wow!” What has just happened? I must have known this person’s soul from the past. It is truly amazing and what a authentic compassionate feeling it is!!
Love ya

This is beautifully put.
And I have one disagreement. As you note, even in no-thingness, we prefer this and not that. To me, this means that life is not a matter of indifference.
Thanks Wade. Could you say where and when it is that you are giving the talk on meditation. I’m not sure when you are on from the site you linked to. I hope to be there. Thanks.
Nice post Wade.
“People. They emit a certain vibe.”
So true.
To sense the inter-connectedness of things enables you to begin to rise above the condiioned opposition within you. As you begin to sense the energy fields, vibrations an fluctuations, your self-view and understanding of this world changes. Its all about transformation form within.
Hi Wade,
Tonight as I listen/watch one of Adya’s series of video’s.
(The Ground of Silence)
A question surfaced and thought you might be able to explain in deeper detail what the “shape-shifter me” is? ex:
As far as my understanding can take me would be, awareness doesn’t notice the noise. Only the me does. And while it notices the me, it shape shifts into any voice. What is Adya talking about, am I close?
lol
;-p

Wow Wade, that was beautiful. There are so many powerful statements in your post that perfectly hit home for me. Your words “we no longer see good or bad. Happy and Sad lose their power” are so true. The reaction to judge melts away and is replaced by acceptance, “found in nothing-ness”.
Wonderful post.

This is what the internet is for, expressing ideas like this. Thanks for the post. May we all find the strength to take that next step in our progression through and to wisdom.
@Tom, It’s so simple and nourishing to live from the place of stillness. It’s very challenging to live in the world and this place at the same time. This is our practice. In the monasteries they talk about their work there are practice for practice in the ‘big blue room’(earth).
@Terry, I have no idea how we know this. It’s just apart of us all. When we do nothing it’s there. When we think about things, or have ideas, it vanishes. Such a beautiful state, very Wow, as you said. The best thing about it is it comes from the not-doing/not-trying, it is what’s always there, it’s the most authentic thing there is.
@Evan, Thanks for the comments. The story is based on my own experiences, and remembering back, there was a feeling of love for everything and one. As it’s said, even the Buddha could not help those who did not wish to hear his words. In a similar vein, I couldn’t just sit on the floor all night, so I went where I felt I could share in the creation of the space. Thanks for the check, with more practice, I believe/hope I will gain even greater unconditional acceptance, and develop less judgments. As I also said in the post, everything in the moment is a teaching, even when the teaching is to clearly see my aversion to certain things. (Details for the talk can be found on http://interestingsouth.com/)
@Gregor, Great quote, fantastic eye as always.
@Liara, Agree
To see beyond the I, is to know that you are not the thing called I. A magical place, and the beginning of a journey.
@Terry, Hi again
I’m reminded of http://themiddleway.net/2008/01/17/the-sound-before-hearing/ by the title Ground of Silence. I’m sure Adya would cover the topic more skillfully, but I think get where we’re coming from here. My understanding of awareness and noise, is that awareness notices the noise, after all it is aware. At this point, it’s not noise, it’s just a sound. It’s only when the Me, with it’s concepts and ideas about what constitutes noise comes along and labels the sound that it becomes noise. The other thing with awareness, which the title is playing on is the sound beyond the sound. Within the sound is no-sound, within no-sound is sound. It’s really hard to hear like this, it can’t be forced. Reading the Identity of Relative and Absolute can help plant seeds (http://themiddleway.net/2007/11/14/absolute-relative-and-enlightenment/)
@Jerry, Thank you for your comments.
@Kapitalq, I like your view of the internet, and hope to do the best I can in co-creating such a place/space. Thanks for your blessing.
May all beings happy, may all beings be peaceful, may all beings be free.
Gassho,
Wade
