There is this fine balance of allowing the flow and channeling it into words - the tumbling part. How to be there to express it but not ruin what is coming. I've been drafting a series of late as the ideas arise, so the logical structure is not all there, but the unfolding discovery is revealed. Fascinating process, to write from the not me. Nicely put.

Always nice to see you here. I'll save explaining for the comments. Haha. The posts flow in a different way (<em>but only in comparison to before</em>). I have been asked about his in several emails. Before, there was a conscious effort to get the words right. And it felt heavy. Imagine a flight of stairs. The exit at the top of the stairs represents expression. The walk up the stairs represents the work needed to get the words out. Before, it felt like walking up the stairs wearing several pairs of leg irons. The expression was there, but it took work to get through the doorway. Now, the words tumble out in a bizarre way, but there is no effort. It feels like <em>beautifully falling up</em> the flight of stairs, but with no pain, discomfort, or heaviness. Tumbling seems to be the right word. Sometimes, when in the act of writing, I am not actually sure if what I am doing makes any sense at all. But in the end, it seems to work out. Thanks! Thanks Nur. Always nice to see you here.

Not only a stepping out of memory, pain, and identity; there is also the stepping out of the path entirely. Well said. Thanks for the compliment, Davidya.

There is that stepping out. Stepping out of memory, of pain, of identity. A path each of us must take for ourselves, stepping out of the layers of illusion. And then we discover there never was an other, an alone, a doing. Beautiful. There is that stepping out. Stepping out of memory, of pain, of identity.
