When there is imagination of a " within " , a " center

within " there is inside/outside, and thus ego.

 

The within-ness, the sense of a center within can

seem absolutely real. But is it real, or just an

assumption?

 

With the realization that there is no center

really, that it was just an assumption,

space is no longer divided into inner/outer,

and there is no longer any sense of location in

subjective space. Thus, there is no longer any

special orientation in subjective space.

 

Just a soft, enormous Emptiness, moving at

glacial speed.

*that* one sees oneself in some particular way that

is the ego-bind.

Could I call for a clarification of terms here, as

there cannot be annihilation of what never was.

Not that I don't know what you mean.

You're right, Werner! I found this citation somewhere and thought it isn't that

bad. I don't know who Mata A. is!

 

Indeed, the promise of an eternal orgasm!

 

The ego........reflective self-awareness; ideal-ego and ego-ideal!

 

I accept everything!

whiner wernie just can't accept that he's an asshole.

 

he creates enemy dogs to fight.

 

and he picks up stray cats to befriend.

 

he's too serious about himself.

 

he doesn't know what fun is about.

 

at least he's not a hyperventilating hispanic hokum hissy...

 

like his new friend.

 

he's a nazi.

 

and damn proud of it too!

 

:-)
