… and perhaps this.

“If you really wanted it, IF YOU REALLY WANTED IT, you’d already have had it.”- KG private discussions.

Nimbus looked around.

Void. Empty……..

A dark creeping sensation of nothingness filled Nimbus.

Nimbus: Where am I?

The void: Here and Now.

Nimbus: Who are you?

The void : (Silence)

Nimbus: Who am I?

(A sudden light glowed from within. Its arms like tentacles reached out illuminating itself.)

The void : (Silence)

Nimbus: What am I doing here?

The void Replied: (Silence)

When Nimbus intended to move. Its luminous body protruded tentacles. But because the void is empty. Nimbus was unaware of distance or motion. The void had nothing to relate for measurements. Therefore no goals, no improvements, and no accomplishments.

After eons or maybe just a moment later, Nimbus questioned, “Am I the only ….?”

Before nimbus could complete the sentence. Another nimbus appeared.

With an identical luminous body in front. Nimbuses wondered, “Who is this?”

Nimbus: Who are you? Where did you come from?

Nimbus: Who are you!? and Where did you come from!?

Nimbus: I do not know.

Nimbus: I do not know either.

Nimbus reached its tentacles towards the other Nimbus. For the first time in its awareness, Nimbus had sensed a touch. A force of repulsion and acknowledgment.

Both the nimbus, curious about this sensation revolved around every part of each other being.

Nimbus: What do we do?

Nimbus: I do not know. What can we do?

Now nimbus had something to relate to. Nimbus traveled far. Nimbus became small. Nimbus circled around the other nimbus.

Now, Nimbus could perhaps relate.

The pursuit of the truth is pure. No one can inspire it, No one can give it. Although, one can be guided to the truth with a question, a bold question. The question which no one knows about, The Question which no one wants to know about. This quest in itself is an inferno, but one that does not burn with pain and suffering in it. It is the fire that inspires deeper contemplation. The burn that liberates. But from what?

Freedom from what?

Are they the topics you read in the articles about ego, mind, spirits, and sins? These are mere words in your vocabulary. They don’t mean anything to you. I even do not know the answer to this examination.

Irrespective of the language, religion, and culture, the truth will be revealed to the pursuer. Keep at it.

There is a life within a life, Are you aware of it?

This is my wish & my blessing, may you find who you truly are & express it to the world.

Lots of Love, Chao.
