With the many, conflict is inevitable

as with the one it is resolved.

Both those who disparage

and those disparaged,

must seek enmity in their differences

and solace in their similarities.

Choice, not stolen by chaos

or recovered by order,

can be little more

than the shadow of desire,

or as much

as the key to liberation.

 

 

 

 

Sublime...

 

Does the wise man remove the thorn or seek to be one with it?

Is every threat or danger simply a teaching challenge to

embrace the danger to know and be the danger

Are we merely the reflection of our opposition

Or are we counterpoint notes floating in a universe of choice

Wherein our silence may either reflect peace

Or betrayel...

 

 

We are all one

Some of us more so than others...

 

Peace,

Namaste

may i be permited to respectfully disagree with the above statement,

dear zenbob...

 

there is only the "one" - referred to as such not as opposed to 'many'

but to express the inexpressible absolute unity of all creation and

beyond.

there is no "second". it is only in it's manifestation that the supposed

"two", the pairs of opposites, appear.

any apparent individual existence is merely an illusion superimposed on

what is was and will be.

all "we", whatever 'we' may be is this 'one'.

 

there is none but this.

 

no more nor less.

 

yosy
