they are often out of my grasp. I decided to write my thoughts or I'd
be stuck saying nothing when I have too many thoughts and result in no
words, like staring into the dark recesses of the mind will coax some
convergence of arcane geometries. I find that the rhythm of learning
is stochastic but over time undulations emerge. Echolocation without
the echo is how my sight seems to work. It seems to be a tough spot
kinda in between or outside that I'm in. You are right about seeing
things for yourself, holding whatever truth, there is a profound
difference in what we assume things to mean. I mean that simply, as
things have become evident to me over time from many perspectives. I
am grateful to understand most of what you've said, even though a
little unsure of what Zero and Bliss Infinite mean.
In humor, I think if there are multiple lives this one's a lesson in
humility. In my terms I would call your ideas on Home and Vanity
'living truth' of great value. We 'begin again'?
