It is not the first time i am out on a journey in this world, i did this many, many times -- to immerse myself into nature at its finest but also to be prepared for natures most powerful shattering... we must watch nature constantly in order to understand what is behind of all things, what is the inner core of the world and ultimately to understand ourselves When i spent my time in the biggest city on the planet, which is Tokyo, and in the most advanced country in the world, which is Japan - i always think of what famous astronomer Carl Sagan said: if you watch the sands and you lift up a full hand of sand -- that is as many sand grains as stars as the human eye can see in a clear night. But, you must understand that there are more stars in the universe than there are sand grains on all the beaches and in all, the deserts of the world... so i feel, what i do is sometimes like : i do it not only for myself but for the people and for my friends who do not have a chance to follow in those footsteps. I belong everywhere, but my body and mind are attached nowhere -- i have no place to go, since all places belong to me -- i have no purpose and no aim that i seek since out of this understanding all purpose and all aim will find me -- since i am aware that all existence including my own self is but a mere illusion, i have no fear of death and no doubt about existence -- i know that existence can never be separated from non-existence -- thus all our lives are but a mere reflexion of the true void and darkness and are appearing on the surface of the realm of existence and disappearing into the abyss of the realm of non-existence however, being aware of such circumstances, we all must find a meaning and a purpose in our so-called lives. We must use the time given to us to dive into the realm of our own self and ultimately to find our true selves. By realizing this within our time of existence we will be able to help others by our own realization of the true inner core of being and of nothingness. Thus speaking, we must become a beacon, a guiding light for others in a manner of speaking. Since the outside world and the so obvious realm of existence is but a mere reflection of the realm of non-existence, and since all worlds and all microscopic and macroscopic universes are infinite and never ending realms of the said before, we must be aware that there cannot be any such thing as a reality or any such thing as an illusion. However, this is not something easily written down or said -- people carrying this understanding of the universe inside their heart do not easily talk and speak about it, maybe they never ever open their mouth in this reality -- so during our walk of life we must be aware that such people are with us, they are here and we must understand that we are not left alone in darkness. However, we must not be afraid to enter the realm of darkness in this world as well. We must allow ourselves to understand, that darkness is a way, a guiding light, which will bring us to the surface of the ocean again, and lift us up into the sky. There is only one reality to be found -- and this is the state of mind that includes both, darkness and light, existence and non-existence, the reality and the non-reality of all things by Fabian Enzinger youtu.be/pCU5Q40HtUs
