From Moshee’s Existential Notes: ONE
From Moshee’s Notes: ONE
“The universe and I came into being together; and I, and everything therein, are ONE.”
It is tiresome and a great burden of mindedness to attempt to reconcile the irreconcilable. Why torture yourself? Spinning around in circles like a top set about by some unseen hand, you go from this point to that point, reasoning then unreasoning your reasons. This is a great trouble, wouldn’t you agree? It seems to me that this endeavor of fruitless thought is completely devoid of value. The world, ideas, thoughts, and mankind on the whole are one humongous contradiction, whose only resolution is cessation. It is a ending of the Many. This end, or rather resolution is not a ceasing to be, but is a coming to be; a sublimation into the ONE. To pass beyond the ONE is to pass beyond Being, which is what we have been doing for centuries with the same results of confusion and frustration.
One day my Soul awoke. It rose up in me and spoke. Rather it asked the question, “Why do you worry so?” I replied thus to my inner prompting, “I worry because I want to know the meaning of all things. I want to know the purpose of life and existence. Self, is not knowing the hallmark of mankind? Is not knowing what is central to being human? My Soul responded, “Oh no… Existence is all that matters. Knowing follows from being, it is essential to be, for true knowledge is simply existing!”
What matters anything, then. Nothing at all matters. Time gets the better of us all, so why bother with vain endeavors. Of how much worth is the discovery of some obscure truth, a truth that no one will ever grasp but the one who discovered it? Much has been reduced to silence, and that is good! Too much has been verbalized thus far. The noise of the verbalizers is deafening. At bottom, what are they actually saying? Nothing. Their vain babblings are pointless and devoid of true meaning, for all things come to the point of limitation in the infinite web of consciousness. Nothing is accomplished. Of what great importance is living 100 years verses living 10 years? Both die in the end. Thus nothing is said loudly and in many words. Nothing affirmed. Nothing denied. This great circle has consumed too many great minds, has drained too much time, and caused too much suffering. Relieve yourself of this yoke. Bear this burden no more.
Is it not simpler to just allow existence to be? Is it not the case that everything just is, that nothing really matters. That nothing really matters, then all is well. And if all is not well, then this too is well, because it just is. Consider this: when you are not, nothing is. That nothing will matter anyway, so why worry yourself to death? Surely, this is hitting at the ONE. Surely, this is the sublimation of all things into the ONE.
For everything that is, is not. Only the ONE brings into existence the illusion of its diversity, of its complexity. There is nothing, yet there is everything, but at bottom all is a figment of the ONE.
There is a need in the world. There is a need in existence. This need is self-overcoming. Few realize this necessity. The experience of loneliness is the lucid testimony of the irrelevance of self-hood. When the mind is thrown upon itself, its absurd reflection smiles back. The individual consciousness longs for some external interruption. It has grown accustom to diversity of feeling, thought, and object. The smile is the subtle acknowledgement of the insignificance of your existence, the triviality of all things. You realize regretfully that you are nothing, a nothingness. Not long after this collision with reality does your Ego emerge with a solution, or rather with a dissolution. The Ego announces the counter-reflection: identity. It says that you are a personality, a thing in a thing. A with-in. This identity is what makes you, you. But have you thought through identity? Have you followed you identity to its natural end, to its cessation. Have you discovered the sublimation of all into the ONE? I have and what I have found is that identity and personality is a fabrication, mask to cover pure existence. After all, what would you be without your identity? Pure being. Existence. ONE.
Categories and names symbolize the world we exist in. The world is nothing more than our existence reflected, as it were, onto the screen of life. This life is what we call consciousness. In this field of experience, we act out our emotions, dreams, and feelings. We bring to life our thoughts and beliefs. Seldom do we consider from whence they sprang? Seldom do we acknowledge what they actually are? One should ask these questions, for they are healthy and conducive to the sublimation process. The willing of our being, the evidence of our existence, that’s what they are. The truth behind our longing lies within reach. If we strip away the self from these emulations, we would find that nothing has value. We infuse everything with meaning. All existence is. Existence is a happening right now. In the present our coming to be is constant, and this coming to be at all times is the experience of the ONE. The ONE is the ultimate reality. The ONE is all. Sublimate everything into the ONE and all will be well. Stop worrying yourself to death. Be ONE.

What's the process to attaining ultimate ONE? There is process to all you do; brushing your teeth, washing your clothes, booting your 'puter are all processes. How would somebody/anybody start, from where they are this moment, to become ONE? Step 1 is....
