\u00e2\u20ac\u02dcI am here\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 is usually felt as a solid point, a fortress where we hide from everything that seems frightening to us. The more insecure we are the more rigid our body, the more obsessive are our thoughts.<\/p>\n
As knowledge and confidence increases, some gates of the fortress begin to open. Our body relaxes, our thoughts slow down, our mind more receptive, and the sharp sensation of inside and outside fades. It is possible that, at some point, the solid fortress became transparent, and inside and outside are not distinguishable any more. We can only experience the aliveness and the intimacy of time.<\/p>\n
The other day, unexpectedly, as soon as I woke up, and still lying in bed, I listened a bird singing. I could feel the bird song vibrating in my chest, and became aware of this shared aliveness; pure intimacy at the wholeness of space. Sound breath and awareness became one.<\/p>\n
\nAt the fundamental level, space seems open by nature. It does not develop; it does not have to be modernized or renovated; it does not have to be opened like a frontier\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 The zero-point shares in the openness of space; it could even be considered a localized (or locatable) symbol of that openness.
