We often think of the mind as separate of body and the feelings being both different from both body and mind. When we seek knowledge of these and other aspects of being in order for the bettering and fulfillment of ourselves, we must understand how these aspects are truly singular and only through perception of the singular nature of these aspects can we truly treat the maladies of being a human. We cannot perceive the mind or thoughts as separate from the body because they are not in fact separate. In fact everything we perceive is apart of who we are and the way we feel. In seeing our self as a conglomerate of separate parts we lack the sense to properly treat ourselves. We are lacking in insight and deluded in our thinking. When you see that the mind, the flesh, the feelings, and the world are not in fact different from each other, you begin to see how the world really is.
The mind does not exist without the body, the body does not exist without the mind. Thoughts and flesh are no different from each other, they are the same. It is the cognition that they are different and that there is a difference that is false. We cannot in fact separate anything or delineate anything from anything else. It is only separate in our imagination. We are in fact not separate nor different from anything else we perceive, because everything we perceive is ourselves.
We live in a hallucination of separate objects and separate subjects. In fact, nothing is separate. Subject and object are not separate or real in any sense. They attempt to confine truth in a single duality and fail utterly. To see the world as both subject and object is still lacking. It is neither. These are inadequate symbols to describe what is impossible to name or confine to any two words. If you can describe the universe in subject and object, then you can describe the universe in anything. Words merely point to the truth.
They are only the truth if one who is the truth speaks them truthfully. This is the One that we all are, yet most of us rarely see or know to be ourselves. This is the body that is the mind. This is the heart that is made of flesh and bone. The sight that is the blind and the way that is walked without ever being anything at all. How incredible to be so blind where it seems like everything we think we know is false and undone in the presence of what is real.
When we are lost in duality we cannot feed ourselves. We cannot live in harmony and we cannot know God or peace. We live in darkness and cling to shadows of a radiant truth concealed in many veils.
