Soft driven, slow and mad like some new language. Reaching your head with the cold, sudden fury of a divine messenger.
„Jim Morrison
Knowing what we call reality is a holographic expression of infinite consciousness playing „and knowing you are That consciousness „here are some words about words,
just for fun:
English language demands duality to exist.
English is a language built on a foundation of opposition. This can result in unique mental dysfunction for native English speakers. [I know whereof I speak.] First among them is our profound fixation on judgement. Everything is black and white in a mind that thinks constantly in polarized English words. As a culture, we are close to losing the capacity for subtlety.
In reality, opposites are complementary. This nondual vision is known to the East and to some extent in Western culture. Yet, its simplicity is often its cause for dismissal by minds desiring complication. Not to fault the mind; the mind‘s job is to measure and to divide input into little bits it “thinks“ it understands. However, it does further to put the tool down when not in use. Human thought is not the speed limit of consciousness we think.
Brian Swimme on Emptiness and the Quantum Vacuum
by Joel Pitney (German translation below)
In the production of every issue of EnlightenNext, there are difficult moments when the editor‘s job calls for some hard decisions. Whether due to space constraints, subject matter, or other factors, inevitably there are some fascinating dialogues that we are unfortunately unable to present in the pages of the magazine. The following excerpt was taken from an interview conducted for Issue 19 of EnlightenNext. This dialogue with Brian Swimme, visionary cosmologist and Core Faculty member for the Philosophy, Cosmology, and Consciousness Program at theCalifornia Institute of Integral Studies, is a mind-expanding exploration of the mysteries at the interface of quantum physicsand spirituality.
EnlightenNext: Many of the greatest spiritual realizers have made a distinction between two dimensions of existence. One is the dimension of becoming. It is the dimension of the manifest world, of time, space, movement, and change. The whole movement of evolution could be said to occur within the dimension of becoming. The other dimension is usually called Being, with a capital “B.“ It is often described as emptiness, the unmanifest, the transcendent nature and Absolute ground of all that is. It is beyond time, change, and form. You often speak movingly about evolution and the creative effulgence of becoming, but I‘d like to ask you about the significance of Being“”which seems to be much less apparent in your work“”and its relationship, if any, to evolution.
It‘s time to update Darwin‘s theory of Natural Selection with the far better theory of Natural Connection. Natural Selection, and its corollary, Survival of the Fittest, has too long been used to rationalize selfish behavior. We need a new theoretical lens.
The theory of Natural Connection posits that the engine of evolution is not the selfish drive to survive, but rather the innate impulse to connect“the impulse to be part of something bigger than ourselves. It‘s a far better explanation for evolution since everything that exists must figure out how to stay in balanced relationship with the greater whole of which it is a part.
