The abyss is here, and it is alive, since it is.

The abyss was something I first encountered during meditation. Darkness within darkness. It was an aspect of the mind about death.

For me, the essential point of the process is total dissolution into the bottomless black abyss. There is great resistance to this, to losing one’s form, but the abyss calls to you, day after day, and at a certain moment, the boundaries shatter.

At first, it is a deeply negative experience that throws you off balance, for in place of form there is nothing, only a black void. Then, at a certain point, you cease to be the observer of the void and become the boundless void itself; the void then opens up, and it is full. Life expands without limit, and what you truly are is revealed

That's because there is no void. The void is your fear of death

@Breakingthewall I see what you're saying. You surrendered to the abyss. Whatever it takes. As long as you allow it to consume you and leaving no trace. Even if it's just for a moment- It can be infinite.

The gateless-gate as it's sometimes called. A hurtle of the mind that needs to be overcome.

That's not a void that's the gateless gate. Red is red.

So, what I did was to sit quietly and look back at all the history (the story) of my life and put it all in one pile in front of me. And when I had that pile collected, I said to myself. "This is all an illusion happening to no one".

For enlightenment or perfect union (Samadhi) to happen all fears must be relinquished. Nothing less than total surrender will open the door to the magic kingdom of infinite intelligence and potential for infinite expressions of itself. That is reality! That is what you are!
