Chapter 7 ~  From External Forms to Internal Formlessness
 
                   "There are . . . intangible realities which float near us,
                   formless and without words; realities which no one
                   has thought out, and which are excluded for lack of interpreters."
                   Natalie Clifford Barney (1876-1972), U.S.-born French author.
                   Quoted in: "On Writing and Writers," in Adam, no. 299
                   (London, 1962; tr. by Ezra Pound).
 
You move out of your morning meditation and into your day fully aware of the fact that God is all you are ever going to be and God is all you are ever going to encounter. If dream illusions linger, you are no longer in the least bit perturbed by them, because you know that no matter how much of a scene they may display, they have no reality whatever. Right there where these errors appear, YOU KNOW with CERTAINTY there is only God in perfect peace, splendor, presence and fullness. You may not always see it manifest in the dream world. The dream world may still seem persistent in presenting many "ungodly" appearances. But you DO SEE it in the spiritual world. Your knowledge of the certainty of Truth grows into an INTERNAL VISION. You may appear to be living at times "between two worlds," but more and more you begin to SEE that there is only ONE world -- God's world -- and that there simply isn't any other world for you to be caught between.
 
You know, or "see," inwardly and formlessly, that God is 100% present right now. The erroneous appearance on the other hand has some FORM to it, and appears EXTERNAL to you in some fashion. So you don't SEE your VISION of Truth in FORM or anything EXTERNAL. Yet each moment of the day your entire approach to living is to always be inwardly looking up from the appearances of external form to the inward, formless, everpresent Truth they were lying about. It is vision that is formless and internal, in contrast to the human vision of seeing EXTERNAL FORM.
 
You relate to your dream world fully aware that in reality there is only the ecstasy of God here. As a result, you leave a trail of miracles you know nothing about. For there is no miracle in nothing remaining nothing. The only reason why the miracles appear to take place is that you got to the place of knowing that the illusion NEVER DID have any reality, that it ALWAYS WAS nothing. You are no longer trying to make the distress disappear. Rather you realize that it's appearance IS NOTHING. Your priority vision is no longer on the world of appearances. Your priority vision is your vision of Truth. And the more clearly you SEE, with your inward, formless, spiritual vision, that GOD IS ALL THERE IS, the more clearly you SEE that any appearance to the contrary is therefore ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. If the appearances to the contrary continue to appear a while longer, you see them as a thin mist, a transparent veil, behind which radiates nothing less than GOD.
 
The appearance has nothing to do with your vision of Truth, nothing to do with your certainty of Truth. Rather, the infinite consciousness that you are reveals to you through insight that GOD REALLY AND TRULY IS ALL THERE IS. And your contemplation of this insight reveals an unfathomable well of feeling. You more and more open yourself up to feel what it feels like to know with certainty that GOD REALLY AND TRULY IS ALL THERE IS, and as you do so you discover an unfathomable well of peace, equanimity, joy, stillness, gratitude, freedom and love.
 
Every moment of life you are beholding God with your inward vision and nothingizing anything that appears not to be God. Every moment of your life you are seeing through any ungodly appearances to the Truth the appearances were lying about. The more you do so, the more the world is revealed to be what it only can be and always has been -- the omnipresent, infinite manifestation of God in infinitely perfect Sacred Geometry, the Divine Dance, the Symphony of God.
