By pure chance I found myself in a relaxed state of waiting with no set end time. On a whim I transformed it into a kind of walking meditation in which I became clearly aware of my body and its functions both while walking, and in moments from my personal history that emerged with accompanying content in my consciousness. From this background perspective as I began to observe the content that arose before me, one thing became very clear. Going beyond the body, consciousness, our perceptions, sensations and reactions is historically often called mysticism. But it is different today. It is the pure experience of the perspective that is the psyche’s own background we move into during self-observation. The mental space that is between everything and everything is also a part of and from which insight arises. In it we perceive the original pure authenticity that seeps out of it as our absolute basis of mental stillness, presence of mind and balance. Which deepens and clarifies our direct relationship to the body and the instincts and functions it conveys in the distinction that exists between it and the states and processes that do not belong to it. It becomes obvious how between them we mix the functions of the body with our mental activity in a way that confuses us so that we culturally mistake mental traditions for religious ones instead of psychic processes and states when we imagine them in a bodily sense. Which is naive from this kind of meditative self-observational perspective. The body, its functions, and our instincts are mixed with our reactions to mental processes and states that we then transform into body by materializing them. We give our mental activity bodily attributes, and we materialize our reactions to them. No conscious distinction is experienced between body and mind. Everything is the same. Our instincts and our sexuality that we experience in the lower back and seat are perceived mixed with the elevated states that go beyond the head and the raptured energy that we absorb from there. They do not meet in the center of our body, in our chest as a union between body and mind. Through what causes the experience of it through their various points of connection. Which are body and not the absolute ground from whose perspective we observe it. We just use the embodied world to visualize the content that arises in the psychic background that we observe from this absolutely fundamental perspective. But it is not body, and not experienced through the sense organs of the body. It is pure mind and the activity we observe of its nothingness as this perspective pendulates back and forth between body and mind.
