Mirror of wholeness

The narcissist stubbornly remains in duality, for he gets lost in his own eyes. Falsely believing the separation is real. This is his hell, his prison of eternal division.

We are gazing into the mirror of wholeness, fully blind!

Tell me, how can we know our face unless we have seen a reflection of it? And how can we see a reflection without perceiving ourselves as another?

The very thing which gives us sight is hidden from us. No matter how hard we open our eyes, we cannot look at ourselves but can only see outward.

Is it not true, then, that only through this momentary splitting of ourselves, of seeing ourselves in a reflection, do our eyes see themselves for the first time? And through them, do we not come to understand the movements in our own faces?

When we see ourselves through a mirror, we realise that this separation is necessary for wholeness, but ultimately false.

So he who becomes two sees himself. And only through this duality can he gain wisdom.

But some of us cling to this division. We are possessed by blindness.

Only the blind hang onto this brief separation! And we know him to be a narcissist.

The narcissist stubbornly remains in duality, for he gets lost in his own eyes. Falsely believing the separation is real.

This is his hell, his prison of eternal division.

He will never know Wisdom. He will never enter Love.

Duality necessitates wholeness. But it exists only in the service of wholeness.

So, my friend, abandon this illusion. Embrace wholeness through duality.

Rest in the eternal One.
