Sober Infinity

[Meta Morphoses]

Hi,

I'd like to come forward with a suggestion how to experience infinity. You can observe and perceive it truly and be fully aware of it being so. And it won't vanish.

So here is what you do:

1) get yourself two full size mirrors

2) place the mirrors parallel to each other at about 2 or 2.5 meters apart

3) place yourself between the two mirrors

4) look into the mirror

What do you see ? You look into your face and you see the back of your head as a reflection of the mirror behind you. And that image get's reflected by the mirror behind you. And that is what you see as you focus your attention on the reflection in the mirror in front of you. And there again is a reflection of the whole scene. And that repeats over and over again. That is infinite reflection of yourself.

Regards

Practically no mirror can reflect 100% of light.

@Meta Morphoses That's not what we mean when we speak of Absolute Infinity.

@Meta Morphoses Instead of taking two mirrors, take two lines of gold, sniff 'em into your nostrils and wait for about 15 minutes. Then you know that your mirror thing wasn't quite infinite.

@Meta Morphoses Infinite images of the self? One is far to many..

@Meta Morphoses If you really want to get a taste of Sober Infinity, use your intuition and not your mind. Feel it. It is always there. It always has been and always will be. When you step out of your mind than infinity is all that remains. All this that is happing around you now is infinity but the trouble is you can only see with your 5 senses. Move out of the shadow of the mind and into the light. Watch a sunset. When you do, ask yourself "How many sunsets am I experiencing?". If the answer is one, your seeing only what the mind can see.
