Everything is everything.
Every individual thing is actually All That Is, right then and there. The cup is all of existence. The body typing this message is All That Is. The body/mind reading this post is All That Is.
Because snowflake is All That Is and snowflake's mom is All That Is, and snowflake's dad is All That Is, everything you can name is everything else in existence.
It's not that the "me" called snowflake is actually the "me" called mom or the "me" called that, but because that which you TRULY are is so much deeper than that limited sense of self that appears, everything is actually everything else.
And everything is nothing... but that's a whole 'nother can of worms...  |
Ariel, from your perspective, why does duality arise?
I really like asking people this question because it usually yields interesting and thought provoking question/answers.
