Shadow play

in #life6 years ago

Our life or the life that we experience is a physical shadow of our conscious lights. Our consciousness until now is a very difficult accepted reality to truly dissect for it has no physical form, so all we have are metaphors or scientific similes to that are perceived as 3-dimensional, e.g., the conscious you is your brain and that everything about you is in there. This piece, however, is not to argue about that. This piece is more of another attempt on representing some parts of our reality.

One way or the other, we maneuver our lives. We make our own reality, but in the most physical possible way. Without knowing, we have shined our conscious light randomly as we react on our previous physical manifestations. This reverse reaction in where we see then we feel has been what is normal for us, because of the idea of physical cause and effect or as I like to call it “matter over mind”.
But that never has been the case, for reality has always been mind over matter. (From here on, mind will mean consciousness.) This all came to me as I was sitting under the rambutan tree on our backyard. The wind was blowing, and as you could imagine, the tree had so many leaves, branches, and fruits as of the moment. An earthworm crawled passed in front of me under the tree’s shadow that played with light changing forms flawlessly and randomly as it was noon and the sun was up high. I tried to imagine how beautiful must this play of light look like if I were that worm, but I remembered that it had no sense of sight.

Most of us are like the worm, disconnected from the higher realities that exist for we cannot sense it. Great minds have tried to unravel it with mathematics and quantum physics, for it means more there, as in there it is more “scientific”, “recorded”, and “real”. I am not one of those scientists, obviously. As far as from any concern, I would rather be the writer of fables if in that way I could help lead minds to see beyond the 3-dimensional walls of reality.

I’ve wander far off from what I wanted to write, but here is the thought behind this:
“Shine your light into what and where you want your life to be. Your mind is so bright that it can cast shadows in this rigid physical reality.”

“It all is like a shadow play.”
