I just have to stop thinking about "who or what is looking at itself or loving itself?" because that is something I am never going to understand.

That speaks to my understanding of neti neti. If you can understand it, then it's not It.

So here I sit, a confounded simple guy. LOL!

Actually that's not really true. I'm a blown-away simple guy contemplating with the wondrous unknowing curiosity of a child.

As always, Namaste

I cannot conceive that there is anything 'divine'. The natural laws that this 'divine' Being created seem to me to cover all required combinations for a multiperformance universe. Our monologue with the universe we otherwise call feedback. We do it the whole time. We are constantly at it. We call it consciousness.

The ride wouldn't be worth the price of the ticket otherwise.
