SHACK 2050 NO SUCH THING?

Dreamtime.com

 In several ways there is no such thing as loss?; In human form the body ages as does everything around one and eventually the body dies and decomposes so can be considered loss. OK so preserving the body merely preserves the form to some extent but not the enlivening principle. So birth and death are an expected event and yet many fight to put off the day of the day of demise.

It's strange many accumulate possessions and surround themselves with as many assurances and insurances as possible and the more one gains the more the loss is felt. It is identification with assurances and insurances that forms one's identity and when the forms lessen or are denied one may vainly try to grasp the expiring form of the loss, like holding on to melting ice in the hand. The strange thing is one may know all about loss and its relationship to reality and that reality lasts as long as the form or assumption is of it and yet we may vainly kid or fool ourselves loss is a facet of life that is somehow a delusion and we are in denial about it.  

Then we may arrive at the empty atom

From File

How did we arrive from this emptiness?  Because the Universe and us are made of the empty atom and is there loss in emptiness?

Whether we like it or not we maybe just 'mind stuff' just an aware consciousness and the fact we do not really exist in the human or Universal planet and star form, just a dream in a consciousness and in fact we have been fooling ourselves we exist as corporeal carnal entities, maybe we have convinced ourselves over the billions of years that we are fleshly solid and here now. Are we though?

Maybe we cannot live with the thought 'I am just an Idea' and so we believe ourselves so much and brain wash and condition ourselves so deeply and so fearful that we maybe an idea dropped here as it were by some mysterious hand in the sky and hopefully pray to that hand in which we may never see the arm that leads to the face. I am here you say and as I take photographs and look in the mirror we age, we do make overs and cosmetic surgery however underneath rust and decay carries on and we wonder when this form vanishes what then? 

Then we may consider if I was an idea in a mind does that mind really want to keep its dream, its fantasy, its form for ever and so loves its fantasies and dreams and on waking up to its own delusions of illusions decide to carry on with new concoctions. Maybe the dreamer is bored with the same old, same old and endeavours to create more and more outlandish and complex form in order to amuse itself or try to escape from its old beliefs and fears of not existing, maybe the dreamer loses itself in its dreams in order to enjoy and escape the deep intuitive knowing it is all a dream, a puff of wind that moves the clouds and in itself denies and fools itself it is real. The dreamer hides hoping its unreality will not find it.

So to dream and wake up and to realise there is no such thing as loss because the empty atom was empty and just a piece of a jigsaw that produced nothing in itself and did not exist in real terms but just thought it did.

Hey so who are you? Are you a you at all? Does it really matter? And talking about matter what is that made of or consist of? Why atoms of course!!!???
