the grip of the imaginary me-self
is a death-grip
the grip IS the self
when that death-grip relaxed –
relaxed for a millisecond,
just long enough
for a rip in the cocoon to open
there was immediate
apperception
of its cause:
the fundamental illusion
in the living of a life
is the unexamined belief
that there is an object
(me)
that ‘does’ it …
when there is only a life being lived by Life

echoes from emptiness 
Dearest ML…The grim gripper is getting to ghostly (tired) to grasp. Thank you for these sweet posts…for these compassionate echoes from the emptiness of Being.
They feel aimed straight in to this heart…
XOXO ❤

To the dearest of friends and faithful comment-gifters – Leslie and Christine – I bow deeply. It is to the sincerity of your hearts that these words are offered – from emptiness to emptiness.
With limitless love –

‘the grip IS the self’ – so true and yet so far
No Mark – so true and so very evident – and I know you know this …
