One of the ultimate and profound realisations
is that of “No-Self”: No permanent essence
as self-reference to be found
in ever-changing phenomena.
One cannot find a fixed entity
in any thing that can be experienced:
No anchor point, No centre and No edges.
Even to label ‘Flow’ as some meta identity
which includes eternal flux is to remain attached
to experience itself as one’s locus.
.
“No-Self” is not a denial
of the unchanging emptiness beyond dimension
and prior even to the sense of “I Am”.
Beyond the duality of existence and non-existence
there is only what Is
.
The habit of self-referencing
is so compulsive it
can even be seen in identifying
as the entity that has no self!
Simply recognising that
is a letting go.
The need for self-validation
just points to the fragility
of any constructed identity.
.
Can there be action arising
without a need to assign it an author?
In Truth that is the actuality.
Identifying or not is in the realm of thought
and has no impact on ultimate nature.
Spontaneity is the natural order
and what arises is ultimately
a response of the Whole,
at all times, in all places,
in all circumstances.
