All That Is

I’m beginning to like the term ‘All That Is’ as a nice succinct descriptor of the essence of non-duality (insofar, of course, as any words can describe It). It simply captures the ALL-inclusive nature of it -- in other words, absolutely nothing can or should be excluded, or rejected, or denied, or separate from it, including, paradoxically, the world of dualities.

So that must include, of necessity, anything and everything that can be, or ever was, or ever will be perceived, conceived, imagined, remembered, dreamed, created, destroyed, in all of its inexhaustible, infinite diversity, novelty, and complexity (and yes, including even those things, events, beliefs and concepts that vex and trouble us), all-existing simultaneously in the one timeless now -- as inconceivable as that may be.

And so, nothing against the 'silent witness' or 'be still and know that you are god' perspectives (for they of course are included too, and serve their purpose), anytime we find ourselves pondering these maddening questions of ‘who or what am I?’ or ‘what should I be doing?’ or ‘what path should I be on?’ or ‘what is true?’ or ‘who is even asking?’ there is the option to just ‘enlighten-up’ and let our imaginations run wild, and revel in it all? (Of course, there is that 'inconvenient' idea of karma that unfortunately must also be included)

In any case, ‘All That Is’ can and will embrace it ALL ... no exceptions
