Symmetry
There seems to be a beautiful symmetry...
The whole wants to experience itself through its part. And the parts want to experience themselves through the whole.
Existence/God/Spirit/Buddha Mind/Big Mind seems to "want" to experience itself through the small selves, and everything experienced by/through the small selves - including all the delusion, confusion and suffering. Otherwise, it would not be. All the human experiences are just as they should be, because they are. Everything is perfect as it is. Even in our deepest suffering and confusion, it is Existence expressing and experiencing itself perfectly. Nothing is missng.
And the other side of the coin is that Existence seems to "want" to evolve. When it experiences itself in confusion and suffering, it naturally seeks clarity and equanimity. When it is expressed in an awareness that functions fragmented and dualistically, it naturally seeks to function more transdually. There is work to do and room for improvement.
Both seems to be there, in a beautiful and rich symmetry.
