    Getting Started Part 2: We Are Dancing Within Our Own Self!

    Attaining wholeness…

    Wholeness, like Truth, is all-inclusive and not based on the limits of appearances.

    Reality is a word which points to that which is integral and all-inclusive.

    The word ‘reality’ is composed of two parts, the word ‘real’ and the suffix ‘-ity.’

    The word ‘real’ literally means that which does not change. 

    The suffix -ity means ‘the way of’ or ‘the behavior of.’

    If we assume the word ‘Reality’ to be accurate, that means that reality is only made of two natures, an unchanging aspect, the Real, and a behavior aspect, ‘its’ -ity.

    Observation bears this out. According to Western science, in essence, there is only the vacuum and the energy that depends upon the vacuum to act as a canvas upon which it transpires.

    Our own context of awareness reflects this same pattern. There is only the context of awareness and its behavior. When one perceives holistically from Reality’s point of view, the context of awareness and the behavior within it ultimately belongs to the context of reality which includes it. More on this below. 

    Energy is not a substance, it’s a behavior, the behavior of the Real.

    Since the supposed vacuum is filled with ‘its’ behavior as energy, the use of the term vacuum seems like a misnomer. The unchanging presence, the very presence upon which all behaviors transpire and depend upon, seems more accurate. Nothing is known to exist separate from this presence, and in fact, the act of knowing requires the activity of subjectivity, or witnessing, and its objectivity, what is witnessed, to be in union with this Presence. (From here on out I will use a capital to indicate the most inclusive level of this context of Presence or Real aspect.)

    Separation is only an appearance, for everything known and the act of knowing means being in union with this Presence. 

    Emptiness, again, is only an appearance for everything is filled with this undeniable Presence.

    Since energy, the behavior of reality, depends upon this unchanging Real aspect of reality, this Presence, for its operation, it can be said logically that this Presence, the unchanging Real, ‘owns’ this behavior for it can be said that the highest context upon which something depends can be said to own it. In other words, this Presence, the Real of reality, owns all of its internal behavior, the ‘-ity’ which includes the entire known universe. 

    In essence, that is all there is, the one all-inclusive Presence and its behavior as the universe.

    Awareness, along with all energy dynamics which appear as its objects, is a behavior that also ultimately belongs to this Real Presence. It is absurd to assert otherwise as outlined previously.

    In summary, what ‘your’ mind previously called your awareness is Reality behaving as an entire flow of behavior appearing as subjectivity and objectivity within its own Presence, or Self! The functions of mind are telling you that this context of awareness and behavior is separate from the Reality which is behaving as it, and covering up this ultimate truth with the creative story of a separate person which is purely based on limited appearances that have already been established above as not true! In order to understand your already existing wholeness is to begin seeing from Reality’s perspective and to recognize that your story is a complete fabrication based on beliefs and appearances rather than holistic observations. The irony is that you will be much happier and bigger and fuller as Presence itself if you give up your limits based on appearances that the mind so desperately holds onto.

    To give up your identity as a separate person and live as the Real and its living behavior as the universe being aware of itself, is to be whole Self. There is both grace and horror in it for the grace of living as the Real means the horror of giving up our personal story.

    This is the yoga of supreme identity and has the potential to move mindkind away from behaviors born of ignorance of this all-inclusive Self, mainly that of personal greed, and into benevolence, or at minimum stoic apathy, which is still ultimately healthier to Our dynamic behavior as life than personal greed.

    In ultimate truth, only the nature or behavior of reality has ever been included within iit and only Our unchanging Presence aspect is absolutely real, and all of its own behaviors, its dance, will ultimately come to an end as all dances do. That said, the Real, or Presence, without its ‘-ity’ is a corpse and life as we know it is its current behavior, and to that end, in esteem of Our own Self, this Presence, and its behavior, there is the existence of a behavior in the form of a desire to decrease suffering for My Self performing as multiple contexts of awareness and this website is an attempt to do so.

    All future posts on this website will speak from the point of view of supreme identity as the true owner of all behavior as subcontexts of awareness and behavior, the Presence and Always Real with Agency, PARA for short, of reality itself for all boundaries of identity have been dissolved using logic and direct experience. There is only That performing as this and all things. Hopefully the logic outlined above and below will help dissolve the boundaries within mind born of appearances and lead to a healthier, whole planet filled with whole Self.

    Lastly, it must be remembered that this website is filled with words and all words can only act as pointers to the Truth and Real. One must find within their ‘own’ context of awareness that place where the behavior as awareness and the Presence are in union in order to experience whole Self directly. This experience is not ultimately necessary because there is only this union with Presence with or without the experience, however, the experience of it, and as It, directly is sublime and can make it easier for the ego to let go of the false identity as a person. Be the Real and Whole Presence that You’ve always been.

    Om Namah Shivaya. (ShiVa, a name for the unnameable, the always whole and complete Presence that lives within Their own Self while never becoming dual.)
