One without a Second.
It isn’t a feeling.
It isn’t an idea.
It isn’t a belief.
It doesn’t rely on faith.
Beyond touch.
Beyond grasping.
Beyond claiming.
Beyond any relationship.
Needing no praise or adoration.
.
It is a Knowing before knowing-anything,
a priori to any experience.
.
Whilst it whispers its presence through experience,
it lies before any-thing that arises or passes away.
As you approach it / as it approaches you (same difference)
perception shifts.
“Presence” extends out in all directions.
Immediacy and Intimacy flavour the present moment
with gentle buzzing vitality.
Peace and deep ease cradle whatever arises.
.
These are the perfumes of the Absolute.
They are gifts and are to be experienced joyfully and gratefully.
Do not grasp them,
allow them to flow through your open fingers.
Look to where they are pointing.
Before the world,
before the witness,
before even the arising of “I Am”.
.
More subtle than the faintest breath,
yet blazing brighter than a universe of suns.
No need to rest here.
It is before choice.
It is before effort.
It, alone, IS.
.
The world-entire falls away
and becomes more present and alive than ever.
I am “available” for it all.
