A look at arrogance and ego of creators. Behold... tremendous storks perceive ‘imperfection’.
How could it be that perfection is as plausible as the wind being still?
Why is it that ‘perfect’ storks have only been seen in still photos and artist renderings?
Navigate the ego, gliding into the study of animal perfection, and perceived imperfection. Discover the connection between arrogance and ego.
In this image, the character ‘X’Tzu’ from ‘11:11 El Luchador Gauntlet’ sits amongst the symbolic ‘twin legs of duality’. There’s no limit to the characters, schemes, dramas, and vanity in the estuary.
Pictured here is ‘The Great Stork’. Although it may look like exactly like a stork, it is not (at least to those who have accepted its suggestions that IT is the ‘Creator’).
When your self-awareness equates itself to self-realization, one’s ego is being stared at in distorted waters.
Perhaps an objective is to make things as challenging and out-of-balance as possible, so as to force higher rebellion to reconcile, and the smaller ‘wills’ to question duality.
‘Mutual arising’ is a relative concept, ‘exists’ only in duality, and is something rarely questioned by long beaked taoists.
Both the symptoms of natural ego and arrogantly inflamed ego may be found flying over the same lagoon - yet drifting over opposite shores.
The ‘crow’ knows that to consider the actual nature of ego is only for the intrepid. It is for those with courage to venture into a place of ‘no belief’… a place of childhood openness, a place where one decides to throw away stealthy arrogance.
Has ALL the ‘work’ you’ve done towards actualization transmuted into subdued, quiet, sneaky pride, arrogance, and ego? Can you dive into the nourishing soil of discomfort, to grow into what you have chose to be? That is after all, why you are here.
The real ‘you’ never had a beginning, only the temporal ‘you’ did.
The distinctions where water, waves, and clouds ‘start and end’ are simple conveniences used to create metaphor, not actual representations of reality. In the same way, the beginnings and ends of ourselves are the exact metaphor as well.
‘Humans’ for the most part, perceive uniformly. The ‘green’ that one person experiences is similar to the ‘green’ of someone else. We garner this opinion because of the similar words we use to describe the characteristics of sound, light, and touch. At the same time, it’s not that there are numerous agreements to perceive in similar ways between all ‘people’, it’s that there is one agreement, and those ‘different souls’ thinking that there must be a multitude of agreements with the higher wills that created air, fire, water, and earth.
All creation is ego-based. To conjure while entranced in distorted reflections leaves you enamored in your creations, and blind to their new formed wills.
Navigate the ego, gliding into the study of animal perfection, and perceived imperfection.
Here we see the legs of a sigil, uh, I mean seagull. Upon the sand of matter and energy, a segregated awareness that is created to perform a function may be open to self-awareness. The conjuring of any ‘thing’ provides part of your spark to create another ‘be-ing’. All servitors are conjured, they ‘serve’ until they don’t.
Perfection and its cousin are only found in the wind blown reflections seen on water.
