DirectorHodl on Nostr: The deeper I go into the esoteric side of life the clearer it becomes that I know so ...
The deeper I go into the esoteric side of life the clearer it becomes that I know so very little about the nature of reality or what life is. It is really the ultimate mystery. I do however see more clearly my delusions, that has been helpful. Perhaps the accumulation of knowledge in this matter is more a matter of recognizing delusions, subtracting, as apposed to “adding” or espousing grand explanatory theories and models. My experience has been that there is a threshold you pass where the truth of reality really cannot be expressed in words or symbol, only experienced. I think it is possible to store this experience in energy, and that it is possible to pass along this energy, but that is quite far away from where I am in terms of skill. “The Dao that can be named is not the eternal Dao” is starting to make a lot clearer sense to me now. You really must remain humble, don’t be so sure you “get it” or it is “just this” or that. Just when you think you get it some deeper structure becomes available to you and you must drop what you thought before almost entirely.
