Through the labrynth of language- meaning and truth slithers from light into all the dark places:

 When one asks the way,
and subtle means will not do,
As soon as a word is spoken,
it unknowingly excludes.

Any protocol, any philosophy,
or way of life, starts with a schism,
between wrong and right.

Even non-dualists, who claim to incorporate everything,
begin from that pesky "non", starting from a negation, thereby excluding anything dualistic.

If I simply say that one must be open to life,
those words, almost by will of their own,
fully outside my intent,
creates a schism and an implied resistance toward anything "closed"
or viewed as hindering one's experience of the openness of life.

Is this a limitation of language or of our temporal comprehension? Of Human understanding or universal happening?

Now let us try very carefully:

Can you be open and present to life in a way that openness and presence includes the parts where we or others are closed or distant?

Can we remain aware of ourselves and our lives as the present moment unfolds AND remain aware of the moments and spans of time where we are unwillingly submerged in ignorance and all has seemingly refolded?


To surrender and flow with life in a such a way that includes timely forcing and might, but only when the flow suggests?
