We really have no divine right to exist in these bodies. But we are, just as the flower in the vase on the table is existing. But to whom is the ‘we’ referring? Why that which is ‘conscious’. That which exists as a result of us appearing in this form. For it takes the appearance of form to reveal to us our true nature – consciousness.
Perhaps that is where a flower has an advantage in as much it doesn’t need to question its existence – it just ‘is’. While we humans are more complex. Our consciousness operates in such a manner that in order to ‘be’ we have first not to ‘be’, by being something other than we are. As it stands, we are – yet we are not. When this being who we are not becomes unbearable we start yearning to be who we really are again – though this time with the knowledge of the knowing. ‘I’ knowing itself.
Why do we need to have our true state revealed to us? Why have we forgotten? Who knows? However, we have learnt to identify with the appearance i.e. our bodies and minds. Yet we say this is ‘my body’, ‘my mind’. Who is saying this?
Answers to these question start coming when we begin to pose the question to ourselves: “To whom is this ‘my’ referring?”
