Nothingness Behind the Screen

[Joe Mc]

The tv is a great analogy for a child who is naturally curious about what is really there. How things work, why and where and when.. they show signs of self/life discovery most naturally, especially when they are more open before reasoning and conditioning kicks in.

The analogy of the tv seems to have moved into how beautiful a child's mind can be unconditioned free and loving which is very true but what I also meant was the way we can be controlled by our own conditioning seeking answers behind the tv, expecting to find those characters who appear on the the tv screen itself. Perhaps this analogy relates somehow to religion and knowledge in general, the way it can be used to imprison us. The way we use it to stay within certain confines.
The opposite of this is an element of Surrender, Surrendering to the fact that I may well be addicted to believing that my destiny is not an apparent destiny where I believe I have free will and autonomy but a destiny that I am very much in control of. "Well I've got some bad news for you sunshine, Jake isn't well he stayed back at the hotel " lol sorry this a line from the Wall, Roger Waters.

That feeling or experience you spoke about, there being more is very true and brings all seekers onto the path were there is a gradual surrendering or deconstruction of the old self and beliefs, be they successful or not in worldly terms, and a dawning of , Oh ! A recognition, recognitions. The assumptions are then left behind, you don't have to give up football or stop cycling lolol. etc. but you begin to realise that you have been invited to share in some wonderful mystery destiny :)
Hopefully we can see clearer what needs to be done what needs to be laid down, our troublesome egos also are properly challenged that life itself has put the characters on the screen through perception maybe science etc. etc. life living itself not through our own projections of why everything is here. Sorry the point is difficult to write about lol. Anyway thank you for the inspiration. :) Sorry if I sound like I know and you don't lol, not my intention.
