On Being, Which is Better Seen as Becoming
Posted on September 07, 2022 by Thulr Odinsson, One of Thousands of Life Coaches on Noomii.
A reflection on the nature of life experience.
We are each nonlinear streams, comprised of myriad interlaced tributaries that are yet in unity, merging and trailing off in exploration… to return again in spacetime, altered in depth, breadth, clarity, opacity… in shade, timbre and tone, each resonant shift augmenting the self-stream.
With some beings, our tributaries may merge for a time… we, together, a conduit do become… a unified stream in varied degrees, carrying ideas given form, fed by two or more made one. Being is a fluid concept that is better understood as: Ever-Becoming and is bound to no singular lifeform or existential dimension.
These tributarial shifts form through interaction… all the Universe is a stream, likewise both unified and interlaced with flowing growth of coalescence and separation… coming and going, yet always Here.
The landscape: Experience, is the soil through which Life-Growth Streams flow. Some self-streams may merge for a time… between others the breadth of soil is too great. The soil is neither stagnant. The soil is everywherewhen herenow in potential, eternal emergence and shift.
Purpose is an illusion… a marker of intentional flow giving bearing. Thus, it is a misnomer to ask, “What is the meaning of Life?” or “What is my purpose?” To ask these questions is suggestive of barriers in one’s self-stream… these questions describe eddies… barriers collect and release… they vary in endless gradients of density and span of spacetime, shaping and directing in variable degree, our streams of self-current.
Sensation of struggle, in all its varied forms, is a cairn, marking placemoments of resonant shift… some call these shifts: “Working through.” …they are intentional augmentations.
Life is movement. Growth is movement. This is the nature of Self-in-Tao.
