To be the only thing that is "the other" without fractures, without folds. To be.

To be that other, who comes and you recognise and can see and feel (in the soul), while your mind is in a frantic race, a race of separation, of non-acceptance...


_1360925.JPG

This is the danger: to see ourselves on the outside as independent entities, separate in soul. The soul is peace, and union, the mind - on the other hand - is restless, cruel, and has two parts. Let's say that in one of them, there is a switch to release cold until freezing, death. This is the part in charge of protecting according to rules and conventions. And speaking of death, which of the two dies, have you considered it? It is the mind that dies when the body dies, but the soul... remains.

Yes, there are many lives to live. You know that.

That was all she could think about. But it was not her, but a voice that actually came from another shore. Still, she thought and drained her thoughts as if her life depended on it (this life). She struggled through the twists and turns of her soulless mind. There was a part of her that needed to be healed and reprogrammed, but it was as difficult as changing a bad habit or getting rid of an unhealthy addiction.

And how to recognise the opposite, that is, not to try to change the habit or the addiction that could finally lead her to that unique body, created at the beginning of time? How to make it possible with the mind flipping the ice switch at every step that seemed to bring those two parts together?

Could it be that we recognised each other? Is it real? Why do I feel everything vibrating inside me and burning? Questions and more questions. The mind in a mad race of separation. Rupture, estrangement, insomnia, nightmares, emptiness... above all, emptiness.


_1360936.JPG

Difficult times.

She was not sure. Who knows how far there was still to go, that's why the voice insisted that the vibrations travel like waves in a mirror of water, from the distant shores to join at the centre and then bounce back. So any thought is a journey. The challenge is to make it beautiful, said the voice.

This flame wandered, still asleep she wandered... she was dying to wake up, but again the mind grabbed her and plunged her into an atrocious river, where only the idea of separation and drowning dwells.

It seemed that only the possibility of the vulture flapping its wings until it flooded her soul with darkness was accepted.

Totally heart how you made bad habit and unhealthy addicition different. I don't know how else to say it.

Because in reality, there are only the good things or "just things" that become bad because of the energy we put into them. I also don't know how to say it.

Are those turkey vultures? Whatever they are, those shots are gorgeous.

Ever read Frank Herbert's Dune? Still not sure how or why but reading this just made me think of it, in particular the litany against fear.

I saw that it is a fiction book. And I've been browsing through it, maybe one day I'll get around to reading it. Thank you. 😉

It touches on a universal theme, fear. Maybe it reminded you of that or something else.

-edit- “turkey vulture” yes

An exquisite text, whose depth makes me think in "Advaita"... And obviously... "FOTAZOS!!!"... I loved this one immensely:

WOW!

Yes, it speaks of total oneness with the whole, and of the illusoriness of the physical world. I asked myself many times while writing it about my purpose in life. Do you know what yours is?

Thank you so much for your support, friend. That's also my favorite photo! 😇

Awww... @nanixxx friend... I called my life purpose years ago: "witnessing"... It's something I talk about very little, but I know it started when I was a kid and Dad came home from a plane ride a bit grumpy and threw a couple of books on the table while saying: "Those bald guys at the airport, they surrounded me singing and dancing and I had to buy them these couple of books to let me through!" :))... One of the books was the Bhagavad-gītā and the other was Canto I of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam... I was only seven years old, but I could already read quite well; in fact, I was already leafing through the Bible, which my mother had in the library... So I took those two books and read them (yes, I know it's a bit crazy for a 7-year-old kid, but I was never normal apparently)... At first I didn't understand almost anything, but I read them hundreds of times I think... As the years went by I understood that those wisdom books are signs, hundreds, thousands, millions of signs scattered all over the world with the single intention of leading us to "witness that" which is not describable through any concept... Over the years I read everything I could get my hands on, the Tao Te Ching, the Zohar, the Avesta, Buddha, Nietzsche, lots of vedic apopeias and poems, Schopenhauer, Greek philosophy, my dear Kafka... What do I know!... I read, read and read... And nowadays I remember very little of everything I read!... I am a "forgetter by profession"... And some time ago I learnt to take advantage of my forgetfulness and to "witness" everything from that place where all those signs took me... I would like to say that it was a long and arduous path, but it's not true... One day I simply understood that I had never gone anywhere...

But I won't make it longer!... I think I've sounded strange enough for today!... hahaha :)

Regards from "the crazy guy with camera in hand" and thans a lot for visiting, comment and appreciate my work! ;)

Thank you for your time and this comment. I really appreciate it.
You think you have been forgotten, but you have not. It just happens that the more contact we have with knowledge, with the source, the more we realize that we know nothing. And perhaps it is not necessary to know so much, but only to feel.

(but in order to be able to consciously feel, it is necessary to have had contact with the knowledge that emanates from the source and to be an awakened being).

Esta es mi modesta opinión.

Today with these pictures you introduced me into a movie of mystery and terror, the birds stalking the next victim tearing their nails on the trees, crawling, trying to save themselves..... what an imaginaion my god!

Excelente fotógrafa! Genia!

Well, well, well... imagination is valid!

😅 Thanks

I love to imagine things while looking at the pictures! They are great!

That tireless mind that dwells in you never stops questioning everything. I believe that not only your soul will remain.

Amandaaa esa última foto está...de infarto!!! Un abrazo

Hahaha... I'm glad you like it, Amanda.

After this I don't think I can say anything, just admire and enjoy your way of writing and telling, of taking us with you and your soul on a journey, of how I see myself reflected in it many times.

Well, we understand each other. You believe in the same things I do, perhaps.

I thank you for your nice comment and I like that this text is of value to someone.

🤗

Little more to say,

hay muchas vidas por vivir. Tú lo sabes.

I love to walk around here, with its switches, its voices and those images taken from some dream.

Abrazo 🤗

I should do something with that last photo one of these days. I like it a lot.

Hope you had a good day, @enraizar.

Gracias por ese abrazo.

I have been having a regular time due to external issues; that's why I thank you for these moments. About the last picture, a nft? I also liked the second photo very much.

See you tomorrow

May everything be sorted out and you have calm.
No idea what I'm going to do, maybe it will just stay there for another life ;)

👋

Sabía que algo faltaba,
Gracias.

De vuelta 🤗.

Hive Power Up Day - July 1st 2024

😇 Thank you very much. All of this is thanks to my work, yes, but also to all the lovely people who support and love me.

I am late ???.....

Ufffffffff if we look at it from the point of view that time is not linear as the mind makes it look, I'm at the right time !!!! And to stop commenting on this post would be a sin.

Fear will always be there, it is part of us. And embracing it, accepting it; we can transcend it to turn it into love.

In my classes, I spend an hour and a half teaching tricks to learn to feel; a way that yogis found to connect with the divine source through our body.

These girls have a mission, and they are going to accomplish it.

Finally, we are the biosphere, or what is the same; Uni-Verse.

This time thing... it's great. It happens to me that two days have come to seem like two years for me, and instead two years have seemed like 2 days. 😔 In both cases the experience has not been good. That's why today I'm working on making time longer but experiencing happiness.
I don't know, I don't know if I am succeeding. But what I do know is that I am determined to make it happen.
Thank you for coming in non-linear time.
