Observation on three levels


It is literally impossible to understand anything about this world, this planet, this species we identify with, and the energy/matter/light substratum/superstratum that imbues all of it - top to bottom, bottom to top, through and through and through - with the mass, weight, and luminescence that makes Observation even possible.

Observation must occur on three levels, at once - as above, as below, as in the middle, at once - to SEE a thing AS itself. So, rather than concentrating on bad/wrong/incorrect governments, political systems, religious institutions, conspiracy theories, creation myths, etc., as the source of mankind's "problem" here, one (who truly desires to become ONE) must expand their horizons to include the smaller, and the much smaller, as well as the larger, and the much larger, and attempt to SEE ALL, at once. It can be done, and it can be talked about, though few if any are even capable or beginning, let alone continuing.

That is, if you can grasp this, all that we experience of ourselves, of the rest of organic life on Earth, of the solar system and larger, AS WELL AS our insides, the insides of our insides, and the insides of our insides and their insides, is due in large part to a three pound lump of gray matter we euphemistically call, "my brain", or even - to stretch this point - "My Mind".

One can understand nothing at all, and might as well just realize once and for all time that one truly knows NOTHING AT ALL - and then be done with all the wondering, conjecturing and theorizing about stuff that can't be known, as it is only making one's life uneasy and more stressful as the days fly by, faster and faster each day.

Compared to what people "think" they "know" about Humanity, and all of its "human issues", they know almost nothing about the world below them, and even less about the world above them. That is, all they "know" is of themselves: they "know" pain, hunger, stress, confusion, etc., but of all that, they still know almost nothing at all. YET, humans everywhere have opinions and theories and conjectures about everything they "think" exists, and are happy to tell them to anyone even before asked.
