"There's a crack in everything," - Leonard Cohen
All-as-one we usurped the equanimity of One.
In that theft, an instant of time was born; everything since is this single thought repeating itself until its thinking is reconciled.
We are the thinking of thought - one and the same.
We are a twisted thought, and because we precede the movement, the sum of thinking is everywhere at once: a single being.
Even when we recognize the exchange, we are not absolved. Recognition only begins the process of recovery, for now we know we are twisted things.
Now we know we must get well for our own sakes.
"Humility is the anchoring principle of divine exchange."
For those who still think the world is its own end:
Movement is illusion, admit this, and go from there.
Easier said than done, as the collective thought everything in a rage of ignorance.
All‑as‑one is the antithesis of One. Science—what we refuse to learn—reveals that the universe is eternally recurring at the speed of gravity. But this knowledge remains between the cracks until we change our thinking.
We must recognize that the sum of how we think is a raging thought that lives through the Armageddon's of time with impunity.
This hell we live in is the perfect measure of our need.
