life

I had a conscious breakthrough 2 weeks ago and decided I should share!

I must admit that at first I didn't want to write about this. Mainly, I don't want to put ideas into people's heads. It doesn't help.

Anyway here's what I got from contemplating "what is life?". I wrote this shortly after getting it:

-------------------------------------------------------

Actually, there’s no “life”. There’s just This.

It took a couple seconds, then I realized it’s true.

A few moments after I got it, a question about what appears as life to me came up. And I got this:

Life as a principle is a relative matter. In fact all principles are relative.

------------------------------------------------------

I noticed that I had been holding that life is in some way absolutely true, and... nope.

Note that I did not become conscious of life as a principle. As I said, that's a relative matter, and I could certainly contemplate more. What I got isn't a relative matter. It cannot be comprehended, how could it?

It doesn't matter what you think you're going to become conscious of. Just get conscious. The way I like to think of how this one unfolded is that I was contemplating life and had a conscious breakthrough on the nature of existence. Looking back, all of them are like this.

Of course, now I am wondering, what is This?
