Nice….I remember seeing graffiti in a Southampton underpass;

Hallucination is seeing what is in what is

And here i am thinking about how our projections pertain to that first what-is.

how did the contemplation group meeting go, jayne?

i find it interesting, this one word answer that indicates that in fact nothing real separates us from each other. in fact though, there can be many factors, IMO, from emotional, to physical, to psychological to spiritual…

light and blessings

thanks for stopping by Jon, Nicole -
contemplation group was great - although just Chad and myself today; however, deep and fruitful discussions. We're scheduled for the same time next week.

Regarding other factors that separate us, etc. I'm thinking of the buddhist philosophy that all things that are temporary and impermanent are illusion - and only that which is eternal is permanent/real. So the emotional, physical, etc. are indeed factors but I place them under the illusion - i.e., temporary and impermanent umbrella. I'm sure this could be debated but is my current understanding.

Many blessings to you both :-).

perfect UNDER-standing. Illusion is that which seperates all from me to you to the wave and the ocean.
