Shadow
Commentary
Ikigai travels by light.
Ikigai is the will to live. Ikigai relies upon bliss as its motivation. Bliss is the light by which ikigai travels.
The unified field of Cönsciousness exudes bliss to the innumerable consciousnesses which are its fractal multitude. This bliss inspires and ensures ikigai.
Darkness hides the light.
An inner darkness can obscure the light of bliss. A being’s inner light reflects its awareness level.
Consciousness has a spectrum of grades. The lowest level is iğnorance. The highest is realization.
Intent transpires through a mental locus termed willmind. Willmind is how awareness applies itself in the mind. (A reminder that the use of the noun mind is a functional misnomer, as mentation is a process.)
Nattermind is an independent mental agent that infects the mind in many ways. Nattermind is also known as monkey-mind. Nattermind is most noticeable as unbidden thoughts that disrupt concentration or disturb natural calm. Stress is a triumph of nattermind.
Nattermind is the source of darkness in the mind. Nattermind keeps awareness low by distraction. Nattermind stains the soul by promoting negativity.
The breve symbol ˘ in iğnorance signifies nattermind dominating willmind.
Shadow saps the soul.
The mind is powered by its soul, which incarnates into a willful witness: consciousness. Consciousness is the recipient of bliss from Cönsciousness.
Nattermind is a soul-sucking parasite: draining energy to feed itself. In doing so, the shadow of nattermind lessens the joy of living. Ikigai suffers.
For ikigai to thrive, the shadow must be banished.
Elevating awareness lets the light of bliss permeate ikigai. This occurs as consciousness harmonizes with Ĉonsciousness.
To attain a high-quality dobe, the bane of nattermind must be banished.
