There is reality. There is definitely something alive and running, on and conscious. Conscious is just a word. Just as ‘being true to the conscience’ is just a saying. It is in the deconstruction of such narratives, of words and stories, that reveal reality in such an un-ludicrous way. Just the way it is. That is.

With making comes its machines, maker and mechanisms. To look into the mechanism of life and the mechanics of what it takes to get the whole thing all what it is known about and unknown of, one must look into the mechanics of ones self. It is in the making of the self that all the rest does rest upon. It is in the knowing of the self and the finding of no self at all, that the mechanics and the mechanic are both intuitively presented and remain un-pre-visited. The mechanics are neither holy and metaphysical nor superstitious and silly. It is in itself its making, when we talk of creation and the creator in a sense. The mechanism of life and the mechanics of it do not subscribe to qualities of a dual nature, like and dislike, attributes of strength, divinity, memory. Only in its absolute sense must it constitute the all pervading, with all its qualities, notions, diversity.

Reality falls somewhere in this play, and is playing. The play, the movement, the constant, the timeless, the rhythm or vibration, wave and sound, is the physics involved in the mechanics of life. Reality is therefore in play, as is the play of these mechanics in physical manifestation, subtler manifestations, and as the source of what one knows as self. Self is the basis to reality, and is also how nothing else is real. No-thing is real as self. But, the self is where the mechanics and the mechanism come to play.

Nothing is real because its reality is contingent to the reality of self. The reality of the self is to be known, so that what’s true doesn’t seem unreal, is neither selfish nor selfless.
