Thank you very much, Robert, this was excellent:) Would you be so kind to answer two questions, please?

1/The first one is related to the unreality of the manifest. Did you find a reason for Dharmakaya (or Source, or whatever name we might choose) to make Creation manifest besides creativity, besides pure play? Being an artist myself, I find art is like a hugely watered-down version of the Absolute´s desire to manifest just for the sake of beauty (or horror).

2/ I am glad you touch the topic of the equal valididy of different points of view. There is a woman who has had several NDE´s (you might know her name, Nanci Danison) that expressed one of them in the most beautiful way. She said that Source created Universes like we create dreams. Then, as Source wanted to experience every being or thing from the inside out, It took Its Self-Awareness to each planet, person, animal, thing, star, etc., so it can experience Its Creation in a realistic manner. According to her experience, each point of view is equally valid because it is Source, the only Being there exists, what´s living through those created charachters, and not the characters themselves. Does that concur with your experience?

Thank you in advance:)

Thank you, I'm glad you like what I wrote. The difficult part of understanding Dharmakaya is that it is not an object or a being; it is ineffable, beyond our normal way of understanding. Being in the state of Dharmakaya means knowing in the absolute sense of our real condition. The example of a mirror is best for explaining. Our real condition is very much like a mirror, reflecting infinite possibilities. It's not that the mirror decides in a way that beings decide, it's that it is natural, as it is, without conscious objectification of any kind. What makes this so difficult to understand is that it is completely natural, without any sort of elaboration. As humans, we complicate everything. It's very simple; however, it's not nothing, not everything, not not nothing, not not everything--it's all possibilities. We manifest as a facet of all possibilities, by being constrained and limited, by deluding ourselves into thinking that we are separate from our Real Nature. All possibilities happen now. Our activities manifest through spontaneous reflections of our Real Nature. Since we try so hard to be separate, we completely miss this magical display, which emanates from our true essence.
