Om

There was an animal, a dinosaur, that was so big it had to have two brains in its body; one in the head, and one in the tail to control the tail. They both thought, but they were part of the same organism. I know that probably won't help much, but it's like all our ideas of space are misguided. You see, how are we separate? Separated by skin, space, ego, body? Then if we got really close together, it would make us one? No, we're one already: we're part of the world, two parts of it, like two parts of a body, two parts of a larger whole. We're like so many mites in an organism that are actually part of the organism. All one. And you might say, yes, but we're two separate mites; except that we're not individual beings ourselves (even when we say mites, there are vast differences in size), but made up of lots of different forces and drives; voices, if you will; so it all breaks down. The fact is we are the world, of the world, when we act we move the world, we are the world itself moving. We're not separate in any way. Our consciousness leaks into it. Anyway.
