The Reflection of Self

All existence lives in relationship. The world reflects the truth of our conditioned existence. If a person is illuminated, that is one sees into the origin of all that is the creation of self, then there is an understanding. That understanding is without any motivating factors that are the result of opinion and conclusion. When one truly understands there is insight that is the outcome of the realization of self that is reflected in all relationships. Ones relationships mirror the self. When a person realizes that they are the other then there is realization of the true self in that absolute moment. It is the dissipation of the duality of observer and observed. One can understand this on a conceptual level, but that understanding is superficial. A superficial understanding seeks to find further meaning and definition. There is no finality in ones understanding. The self still grapples with the ideal of dual and non-dual. In the dissipation of a self that knows there is neither dual nor non-dual there is only what is in that moment which is the truth of the unknown.

When one sees the reflection of self in others there is realization of an unconditioned consciousness. A consciousness that is without judgement, that realizes that which is selfless, that which is without image or definition. Such a mind is no mind, the absence of all that references, that seeks. Such is the peace of that which is and is not in the same moment. It is the meditation of the timeless. Timeless awareness that is the total dissipation of the self.

Those that are caught in the illusion of a self that knows, must project confusion, conflict, and violence. It is the way of a person that is attached, identified and defined. But if a person can see in the moment the reflection of all that is the conflict of the self in the other, in our relationships, then one begins to understand the origin of all conflict. When you realize that you are the conflict and that it is not something separate from you, then there is an illumination into the death of all that is the conditioning of what was. It is rebirth as that which has never been, the enlightened state of the unconditioned and the unknown. It is the outcome of an awareness that is without choice or discrimination, that is free of all seeking, that is timeless.
