2-Sides of the same coin

I understand this might not be a very catchy title. But for those willing to push through the initial bore it suggests, there might be something for you. The non-dual reality or awareness intimates that there’s a single reality and everything is connected — God and Man are one. This definition is very basic and should attract little criticism.

“You have your way. I have my way. As for the right way, the correct way, and the only way, it does not exist” — Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

I understand I might be the center of criticism for all you religious heavyweights. Hit the follow button, clap and leave a message; I just might have more for you.

There’s no separateness, all is one. Keep in mind that good and evil are both sides of the same coin. A single coin representing the infinite. You are the coin. You are the infinite.

“I was no longer needing to be special, because I was no longer so caught in my puny separateness that had to keep proving I was something. I was part of the universe, like a tree is, or like grass is, or like water is. Like storms, like roses. I was just part of it all.”― Ram Dass, Changing Lenses

A Poem About One.

The world in awe — substance and constellations.

Two natures. One being.

I am excited by the day; you love the nights.

I am motivated by the crowd. You get energized by solitude.

I ask “where do we go?” You say “please shut the door behind you when you leave, I’ve got a book to read.”

I say “let’s be co-dependent”. You remind me of your freedom.

I strive for perfection. However, you see through the illusion of perfection.

I see people, where you see energy.

I want instant pleasures; but, you follow the path of delayed gratification.

I claim to know God. You say you might have your guesses.

Vengeance calms my soul, but forbearance is your motto. There’s no retribution, just experience and occurrences in consciousness.

It’s intriguing when I speak with certainty. But you see it’s a Dunning-Kruger effect.

Where is my next pleasure or sensation coming from? Okay this is less fanciful for you; You have yet another depressive episode.

My drugs just arrived. It’s time for your next meditation.

I have my religion; you say it’s just another drug.

I await my savior. “Okay… good luck to you”

I fear my demons. You’ve made your bed for yours.

You are me. I am you.
