That there can be separation from this ‘ineffable source’ is a delusion. In fact no one has ever actually experienced separation - only a sense of separation.
The separation delusion occurs because Reality presents as individuation, variation and differentiation at every turn. Reinforced by our conditioning, thought and language from a very early age, we mistake this seamless presentation for a collection of fixed, enduring, independent objects.
But there are no such self-existing things. If we pay special attention we might grasp that there is simply this… and now this… expressing and modulating as the apparently separate forms of existence.

Something to do to end the search may be attractive to some seekers, who will undertake the tasks they are prescribed with enthusiasm and hope, but not to those who are dissolutioned with something to do and who feel that the solution to the search is somehow unconditional and totally trancends the need for such tasks.
