triple welcoming
dissolving the Vortex
by Hale Dwoskin Right here, right now, there is already happiness, peace and joynot as some future attainment, experience or event, but right here, right now. What you are is this perfect presence that is already seeing through those eyes, hearing through those ears, feeling through that body, all being translated and interpreted through the inner sounds you hearcalled thoughtsthat appear in your head. All of this is happening here and nowwithout your help. In fact, all attempts to help or hinder this natural and effortless happening are merely more sounds about sounds signifying nothing. Our attempts to modify or change what is appear to prevent us from experiencing this presence of happiness that we are.
The Vortex
Even after we have clearly seen through the illusion of a separate, independent entity or self-center called me, and are feeling the relief that comes from being what we are, there may still be a momentum behind the old habit patterns. These habit patterns manifest as apparently conflicting sounds, sensations and pictures in awareness, based on what wasand which appear to be fighting with each other over the presence of awareness, without which they could not be. This looks a little like the old cartoons where the dog and the cat are having a wild fight, but all you can see is fur, smoke and paws whirling around each other. This whirl of energy appears to influence behavior, appears to make decisions, appears to influence how we experience the livingness that is now. It also give the illusion of some remaining self-center. This, of course, can simply be seen through, and often is seen through now, now, and now.
