Heloisa to Piet, Rod and Maria


Piet, Rod and Maria,

For a couple of days, after meditating and reaching a relaxed state, I attempted to view reality as devoid of causality. In that state, I was initially able to conceive reality as one living organism in a state of flux, where nothing needed a specific context in order to emerge and nothing caused anything else, for everything just was, just simply was.

I realized, however, that I was separate of that reality, for I was aware of an “I” experiencing that event. I was the “experiencer” separate of the “object of my experience”. I was not able to become that reality devoid of causality that I was attempting to experience.

In persisting with the exercise for a few more days I was then able, for a few moments, to suddenly just rest directly with the “I” which thought that it was separate of the “object of its experience”, of that which thought that it could not become one with that reality. In other words, it was only when letting go directly into the mind that was searching to remove the concept of causality, that I was suddenly able to reach a state of a present awareness devoid of causality as we understand it in our linear concept of time.

Does that make any sense? Is letting go directly into the mind that seeks, a way of transcending the dual reality we are so conditioned to experience?

Heloisa
