Ten Bulls: the Obvious Becomes Apparent

 

There is nothing the least poetic about "The Ten Bulls". "The Ten Bulls" is an utterly prosaic description of the state of an Awareness wholly identified with animal-mind discovering the Self.


The fact that this reality was noted and codified well over one thousand years ago says something about humanities marginal powers of observation.


Enlightenment is simply a matter of the obvious becoming apparent.

Labyrinth

 


The mind is not a labyrinth. The mind is a system of hallways designed to lead an enchanted Awareness into the ways of the world. Seen from above our humanity is warren of ancient pathways leading to various rewards that most generally serve the needs and appreciations of the creature that we inhabit. The Universe is thus served by the production and emanation of vibrations completely foreign to the material world.

The only new thing in the Universe is the experience of living organisms. The paramecium, the earthworm, the elephant, all generate what we might call "life", and the creation of new vibrations common only to life is the Universes way of feeding.


Enlightenment is an entirely personal matter, but I rather suspect that the Universe may find the vibrations delicious.
