Being The Secret
We don’t see it, because we are it.
There is a secret that’s talked about – the essence of being – but it’s hardly ever recognised because our minds are hermetically sealed with words, and nothing can get in, and nothing comes out once we’ve acquired those words. We shut the door on the simple experience of emptiness, of pure cognisance. As long as people talk about essence, it remains hidden. We just think that we know.
But all this talk is the very reason we don’t know. We regard ourselves as nothing worthy. Why is that? Because our reality is wrapped up in complicated terminology and elaborate jargon.
Throughout history, volumes of texts and commentaries have been written about, expounding upon this subject of our reality as if it is something ‘out there’, when it’s all about little old us – the essence of every sentient being.
We are so bound up in historical and philosophical facts
that we have no space to ask,
“Is this reality, or is there something … less?”
