The Singularity of Existence

As before we continued to discuss differences in human nature and whether it would be possible for cultures of differing points of view and opinion to ever come together in peace and harmony. J said "I don't see that it can ever come about that the human condition will change much". " We have been at war with our neighbors and those that disagree with whatever our position is since the beginning of time." "I mean man is basically greedy, self serving, and without conscience when it comes to the welfare of those who do not conform." "If we are concerned about other people at all it is always to the benefit of the ourselves and what one can derive from assisting those who are essentially foreign in culture and belief". "L, you talk of selfless acts to others, but I don't know that there is a such a thing as 'selfless'." My reply, you are right there is no such thing as selfless as long as you are seeking and defining it as an activity of thought that "knows" and seeks to accomplish. The quality of selflessness is without the activity of defining and thus differentiation. As long as there is the me and the not me there is the conflict of opposites. A person must be able to see in the moment that he or she is the other. That whatever you perceive in the other is you, your projection of self knowing. So you cannot see the truth of the moment you only see the illusion of the self created. As you are disintegrated it is not possible for you look without the duality of self service. When one is integrated, that is one has a realization of the selfless, then it is possible to have understanding that is not relative to the self. It is to dwell in the singularity of an existence that goes beyond the despotic thinking of the separated and thus conflicted. J interrupted, "What do you mean by a 'singularity of existence'". In the absolute moment there is only the reality of what is. If there is no self that "knows" then there is also not the other as a defined limitation. It is a psychological event horizon that is the total integration of existence. The realization of the singular, a consciousness that is not relativistic, that has no relation to what has been or what will be. So it is whole, complete without the need for knowing. Knowing defines, creates limitation. The unknown has no limitation, it cannot be defined. If there is in reality no space/time, only the mathematics of thought, which is to divide in order to understand, how can one possibly comprehend that which cannot be divided? Once you divide, create a division, one has lost the ability to see because one has created time. Time being the space between the self and what the self knows, ones duality. One can see, if at all aware, that truth is only in the moment, all else the projected illusion of self. C jumped in, "Yes I can sort of see, get a feeling for what you are saying, but how on earth can one live it". Ah yes, now you are looking for a formula. And if I were a cunning "Guru" I would take your money and give you a plan or path and you would go on being deceived by the greed of accomplishment. You cannot "live it" you can only be aware of the movement of self. Out of that awareness comes freedom the outcome of which is the selfless, the consciousness of the unconditioned.
