Hay-Ku of the Day (Behind Your Eyes)

Isn't All a Mental
Energy Pattern going
On behind my eyes?

What I See is a
Pattern of Mental Energy
Imagined without.

What I See is a
Mental Energy Pattern
Within my own skull.

***

Must Not All I See
Be a Resonant State of
Awareness Itself?

Is not All I See
A Resonant State of the
Awareness I Am?

Is not Everything
A Resonant State of the
Awareness You Are?

***

What I See is a
"Virtual Reality"
Within Awareness.

Existence is a
"Virtual Reality"
Of the Absolute.

Being's a Divine
"Virtual Reality"
Envisioned by God.

***

I can relate to
Being only in and through
My own mental space

I can relate to
Being only in and through
Awareness Itself.

I can relate to
Being only in and through
Mental reflections.

[Rich Note: inspired by the following 8-18-14 twit by "BeingAboutBeing":

"Out there is still in here."]

[Rich Note: A more detailed, related metaphysical metaphor that introduces chapter five, "Of Twain One New Man," of OOMM:

"What’s going on within the geographic confines of your skull, behind your eyes, right now? Is it not everything you see before your eyes, and is this not actually composed of patterns of mental energy arising within your own head? Is it not also true that the patterns which you presently identify as yourself are composed of the exact same mental material you identify as other? This being true, how is it possible to be so intimately identified with one portion of your awareness, and so self-alienated from the other? Perhaps because the preponderance of your attention is habitually focused on the former, while you are proportional less sensitive and aware of the latter."]
