As you venture out towards the edge of the Universe, the architecture starts to get weird. Scaffolding becomes beautiful. No space is unfilled or full. Distant points occupy the same location.
Could you build a structure out of metaphors?
No souls are injured when Yesterday and Tomorrow collide.
You get used to it. Nothing happening amidst all the apparent chaos.
The Big Bang happened on a Tuesday.
We need to talk about tidepools. You need to know the truth: They don’t exist.
Sure, an image search turns up hundreds of pictures, vibrant life, expressive, colorful. But in all your walks on the beach, have you ever found a tidepool teeming with life?
A conspiracy, no doubt. Probably the government.
“The body appears in your mind, your mind is the content of your consciousness; you are the motionless witness of the river of consciousness which changes eternally without changing you in any way. Your own changelessness is so obvious that you do not notice it. The universe is in you and cannot be without you. The world exists in memory, memory comes into consciousness; consciousness exists in awareness and awareness is the reflection of the light on the waters of existence.” —Sri Nisargadatta
