Wonderful thank you... love that description of the abyss.

Thankfully love, joy, peace, creativity and wisdom are infinitely vast—just like their Source. Feeling any one of the above is liberating and comforting: we zoom out on the aspects of humanity which are stupid, ugly and cruel and bask in our vastness.

Recharged, we can then zoom in once again and endeavour to bring some of the above characteristics of infinite vastness with us. Love, peace, joy, creativity and wisdom create space because they are spaciousness itself: primordial characteristics of spacious consciousness. They can shift perspectives and behaviours....ultimately they bring a spacious quality to the small, limited life under pressure which we describe as individual and collective suffering.

Spaciousness and excessive pressure/suffering cannot exist together. The pressure and confinement of a cruel, limited experience of life dissipates in the presence of spaciousness, in the presence of our deepest nature.

Yes, we're silly little bonobos that talk, but our stupidity is letting elites use the legal status of 'the corporation' to destroy lives and planet so they grow their power. End corporations, we won't seem so stupid. I so love us too...
