On the Threshold of Being: Existence in essence.



Today, I embark on a sacred pilgrimage inwards, towards the hidden chamber of the Ich, the core of my being. This journey, I hope, will lead me to a state of unification, a point of confluence where self and higher self embrace.

As I journey deeper, I witness a magnificent exchange of energy, a symphony of light within the very essence of my existence. Like a curious child perched on the edge of a wise gathering, I observe the subtle dance between the known self and the unknown divine.

But who is this observer that arises within me? Who is the child gazing upon the observer? This question, never contemplated before, hangs heavy in the air, a riddle whispered on the wind.

It feels like an inner monad of innocence, untouched by the world’s harsh wisdom yet separate from the ego’s worldly attachments. This presence, a facet of self, yearns for the guidance of the higher self, yet possesses a radiant wisdom of its own.

Is this the innocent child of being, residing eternally in the present moment, bathed only in love? Untainted by the world, it exists in its purest form, untouched by the grasping tendrils of the ego. Perhaps it is the soul, or perhaps simply a stroke of cosmic grace.

This essence, a phantom presence, is devoid of drama and physical encumbrances. It is a self-contained being, radiating a powerful light from the heart. Its awareness exists solely in the ‘now’, not seeking growth or knowledge, for it is already complete within itself.

This state of harmonious innocence, an embodiment of pure beingness, vibrates with a profound beauty. It is a reminder that wholeness lies within, an exquisite dance of presence and awareness, forever perfect in its present moment, existing in the essence of being.
