"Other" is not a concept

[billiesimon]

Hey. 

Other is not an experience nor an entity. 

But it's not a concept in your mind either. 

And it's not a boundary in your mind. 

That's still unawareness. 

 

Other is just the consequence of finding Self in a specific appearing form. 

You see some specific form in experience, you focus on that, you keep your attention on that, and thus believe that you are that form. 

False self = a specific form

True self = no form = all forms 

How can no form be equal to all forms? 

Because no form is the inclusion of all form. 

Once you start focusing on just one form, you stop the inclusion of all forms, then you become form. 

To become (a) form is to lose formlessness, hence it is to lose one's true self. 

 

Why is the self formless? It doesn't make sense. 

The self is self. 

That's not a valid explanation. 

There are no explanations, because those are what you are inventing. You invent explanations. 

Since you are, you don't need explanation. 

You don't need anything. You already are. This makes you boundless and spacious. Being is first cause. 

 

Contemplate and be well ?⭐

It's a form of self inquiry I have discovered that has made me progress a lot. 

"True self = no form = all forms" 

Seems pretty clear and logical to me.

Can you explain?

"True self = no form = all forms

Because no form is the inclusion of all form. 

Once you start focusing on just one form, you stop the inclusion of all forms, then you become form."

This doesn't seem to make any sense to me.

You have a consciousness, a sense of I am someone. 

In fact you are everything, but are mentally focusing on some specific human form." I am oldman". 

No, you are everything but you are focused on that body and psyche. This creates other because then you have to feel that the other shapes are not you but other entities. 

Follow me here:

Since you are everything, you have no shape. 

Got it? 

To be all forms (or to be everything) needs you to be formless, just like water becomes all glasses and containers. 

Water is flexible and liquid, this makes it adaptable to all forms. 

No form = all forms
