Stillness is Known When Measuring Stops
Stillness is known when measuring stops.
When measuring stops there is no one of two to measure stillness. It is all one.
Time measures motion in space, motion and space measure time.
Beyond the relative, awareness knows itself through stillness and knows stillness through Its many faces and rhythms in time.
Within the relative, stillness cannot be measured as there is no-thing to measure. Duality can only see its own reflection, the two, creating motion in space and time; the relative universe.
Within stillness lies a connection to the non-relative, and to an ever-greater capacity, to enjoy and to taste the rasa, the sap the essence, of the many diverse faces of the one.
It would seem paradoxical that within the immeasurable non-relative universe, stillness and the awareness that comes from that is realized through time and the measurable relative universe, and within time and the measurable relative universe, stillness cannot be measured or known!
Therein lies a value of unveiling and breathing stillness into our lives.
Ommmmmm
