Spiritual birth is realizing your nothingness, everythingness, and somebodyness.
– Adyashanti
Nothingness – capacity for experience, for this world.
Everythingness – that which experience, this world, happens within and as.
Somebodyness – this human being living in the world.
Thank you for this 🙂
What comes for me also is:
Nothingness: I am nothing in particular; beyond any fixed definition or
identity. This feels close to wisdom.
Everythingness: I am all possibility (including light and shadow – all is within
me). I am the projector of my world/life. This feels close to
compassion.
Somebodyness: I experience this world/life on a physical/emotional level as a
human being, with all limitations and grace that this brings.
For instance, my apparent ‘imperfection’ brings humilty,
patience, understanding and taking myself less seriously; my
apparent mortality brings an appreciation of life and
relationships, a feeling of ‘aliveness’ and an instinct to
experience and serve life.
In Love and Gratitude for you
Beautiful 🙂 Thank you.
