Self-cooperation


Self-cooperation: 

that we exist at all is only through cooperation, from the seamless occurrence of particles dancing together for an atoms form, molecules bonding for the sake of cells, and our every body-part functioning for the singular purpose of bringing life - it's all an action of infinite love, the universe expressed through cooperation. Yet really it's more of a self-cooperation, that these multiple parts seen working as a whole are only and simply the wholeness itself, one thing, infinite in its expression. 

taken a step farther and we could say that it all stems from nothing, emptiness with a wish to be shown as form and somehow brings this cause to bear . The Buddhist Heart Sutra states that emptiness is non other than form, and form being nothing more than emptiness as well. Cosmologist tell of singularity of existence, dense with the energy of space-time, nothing else but this until a quantum fluctuation gave it reason to be more. They tell of the same thing as far as I'm concerned, that there is one thing in self-cooperation, every seeming part just an expression brought to form. The universe is a great work of art that requires an observer, and we are this role, as well as participants of its creation. 

one thing.

self-cooperation.

so our greatest truth is one of self-cooperation, not a functioning part of the universe but an aspect of its show. In this light we see that there is no cooperation between us, simply because there is no possible separation existing as a space between, only the appearance of duality occurs. Everything we seem to do is for the benefit of one, again it's all self-cooperation, existence alone, and we are temporary in belief and form. This can be liberating to considered, with no act ever being truly selfish as we only deny ourselves the gift our receiving, no real harm other than what we cause to our own concern. With this seen we come to real compassion, empathy, selfless action performed for the true cause of self-cooperation. We don't exist on our own, nothing does, there's only existence. 

no you, no me, 

being more seamless than together.

self-cooperation.
