If you say that it is here, a there must exist. But any "there" is simply present.

If you say that it is small, a big must exist. But big is simply size.
An ant may seem small to an unenlightened, but the ant may seem big to a gnat.

A human may seem big to an unenlightened, but the human may seem big to an ant.

Focus on actuality. Also, avoid the illusion of one. It is often during the illusion of controlling. For one moment, close your jaws and try to reason that they are plural rather than one. Perhaps situate and adjust until you find the illusion of one again. This illusion is potent... like focusing on a hand and knowing it is a hand, but forgetting it is multiple things combined. People are combinations of what elsewhere isn’t a creature, elements. Apart from assembling a creature, those which form you merely are… being elements. With pointillism, dots are seen from a distance… they are placed so as to, from a distance, seem to form a solid image. That image is like the illusion of one. Wherever you seem to sense one, you sense the same lying confirmation you experience when you seem to sense yourself. But you are multiple, thus consciousness of self is to be under an illusion.

“The consciousness of self is the greatest hindrance to the proper execution of all physical action” – Bruce lee
“Trying to define yourself is like trying to bite your own teeth." – Alan Watts
