Transparency




I was looking at density of our body
Just seeing it
The body as the body ..
Flesh and bones and water

In the Advance Course
By testing reality
We re-associated the illusion of it

Then in the 'being' exercise
We looked at each other
And we saw the fear of other 'bodies'

I don't have an answer
Or the holy truth to share
It is just funny to see what happens
When we identify ourselves with the body

There is fear

There is fear of what happens to us, the body rottens ...
Will we rotten under the grave?
The body shows we are all separated
Are we that far, distant and alone?

The body is solid
We take everything as solid
Conversations we hear from others become solid, stuck in time.
Uncool thoughts that passed on our minds become "solid"
I related ourselves past uncool thoughts and suffer

Death becomes solid
Survival becomes a mode
Protection and defenses become a mode
There is a sense of danger ...
Unsafety, many thoughts and concerns to survive

God becomes solid, like a stone, hurtful
Our minds become solid, hurtful, too vulnerable
A rigid, persona, punitive, reciprocal God
A right, persona, punite, reciprocal Self

Isn't it funny to look how crazy
Has been the meaning we've given to the body

Asking if we could see the body not as solid as it seems
Would we defend myself that much?
Would we be defenseless?
Would we be as identified with it?
Would we see ourselves limited?
Would we need admiration/outside gratification that much?

Inauthenticity by the the need to look a good persona?
Would we ever be stuck and not follow our dreams?
Would we be living so much in the survival mode?
Would we fear that much?
Would we see ourselves little and isolated?

If we saw the body as nothing, really
Can we be transparent?
Say what goes in our minds?
Not repress our feelings and emotions?
Be real, fear less, love more, feel connected

The solid appereance of the body
Wouldn't have the meaning we've attributed to it
A shift could happen
A shift from fear to love
From density to transparency
From defense to joining
From inauthenticity to self expression
From constant worries to joy

This is such an interesting inquire ....
