Riffin' On Complains about the Sheer Magnanimous Levels of Paranoia Baked into the Frameworks of Living Life as an Exemplar/Role-Model (Or: Down with Moderation, Man; My Religious Experience).

“To show them special mercy, I, dwelling in their hearts, destroy with the shining lamp of knowledge the darkness born of ignorance.” 10.11 Bhagavad Gita The Opulence of the Absolute

Illumination is a mystical process, of the very same nature/mechanics which undo suffering incarnate. We tend to conceive of ignorance as a largely neutral, internal state not closely aligned with physicality, but within the Buddhist cosmology they are moreso of a predilection to think that worldview can remove the sheer potential for illness to manifest…that it somehow can drastically impact our vigor and posture on the spot, as much as this is terribly, terribly unlikely… they are open to miracle by way of a perfect confluence of labor and spontaneous methodical insight. In fact, to randomly sift through realization, no matter the topic, and to viscerally huck off some sort of sense of ignorance… is probably a Messianic and automatic process of universe that we are forced into as individuals…and in doing it we are undoing the potential for bad just as washing one’s hands can seriously inhibit their prospects of contracting a bacterial infection. Our life activities are in service to…perpetuating and tending to…life, and not just our own.

        To be able to come to insight at all, is to be able to achieve utter resonance with that which we define as the Most High. Afterall, religious traditions claimed that we were made in the Image of the Beloved… God forces assimilation with His all-loving ways, and that’s what the mortal, individuated life is, no matter your species. At it’s most extreme, this would mean overcoming death, comprehensively, and it does. These frameworks were established in Christianity but the conceptual territory is still fertile; the example of Christ’s return is meant to be assumed for all who have lived…and there’s some sense that they merge into omnipresence and are constantly within reach for the living at all moments…meaning nothing ever goes away, truly and that there is no away, and that literally every life form which has preceded you in historical existence is literally both within and surrounding your body at this very moment…they are everywhere and everything, yet still themselves, and still reachable… being spiritual is having a dynamic/effective relationship with them. Life is about this…

                This snowballs, victoriously, into an evident realization that all is love and that the way we normally look at the world, day in and day out is deeply diseased. We think, and certainly in some ways this is appropriate…that fearing or worrying over things, cancer even…is Messianic. We, for whatever reason, inevitably end up probing the corners of our bodies with paranoia as we nitpick our daily routines with fine-combs…more than we turn outward and “project healing vibes of unconditional light and love” in service to each other. I say radiate well-being with confidence moreso than chase it…unless you are inclined to think the alternative is a better decision for your situation!

                Where does it become awesome? Where does wisdom actually foot the bill? Where is it enough? Is life enough? Or is this all unsustainable? I think…I know, I do believe…the buck stops here. It’s everything that ever happened ever, and it will continue to be so, and we will have lost the sense of it ten minutes from now if it ever even dawned. It’s all testifying to the persistent, eternal truth that is represented by all forms in all moments…Love, supreme…the prospects of life, victorious.

Through a lens of genuine awakening…of the implications of your very existence/form as a creature…nothing actually is impossible, and those might even be the few things you actually do need to do.
