Quote:Well. A candle lights another.
It is essentially a falling off process, falling off of layers of conditioned responses that constitute the social identity of a person. It is a process that allows and reveals oneself to oneself with intimacy and acceptance. The whole thought sphere that runs parallel to Reality. The i identity reconciles into unknowing.
It is a simplification of life,heart, mind, so life can be lived with simple, fresh response as each moment decrees. Dysfunctionality dissolves and emotional, psychological simplicity dawns. The seeker goes past the mending state, of chasing shadows and settles in one's own pristine being.
In presence of a catalyst, the chemical reaction speeds up.
