~~~ What is the difference between:~~~ What is the sound of one hand clapping? --~~~ and, ~~~ Where were you 100 years ago?

 

 

~~ 100 years ago I was,

as I am today.

I was nowhere,

as I am today.

~~ The sound of one hand clapping

I have no answer for.

~ Yesterday,

today,

tomorrow

spirate from single point of origin--

all that is.

 

~ Somewhere,

nowhere,

everywhere--

dreaming as awareness-- here now.

 

~ How do we know?

Simple...

we are aware.

 

~ Who are we?

Multifarious points of view...

endless perspectives churning awareness.

 

~ The seeing of the seer.

 

~ Thus is nothing.

How does something I have never experienced get to be a memory? (sound of

hand clapping)

No way. What could divide A into B

and C if there is only A?

 

How could A arise in the first place as A?

 

A can't be said to arise or not arise,

so there can't be an affirmation of

A as A nor as something other than A.

 

>A arises and is divided into B and C...B thinks it's B and C thinks

>it's C when both are really A...!
