non-sensical world

If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary-wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?

No, not really,
depends how far are we willing to go down the rabbit hole to find out. Letting go of what we think is, to find out that it isnt. Is self making these complications, is the egoic self in constant battle with its self. You have titled this non-sensical world. And I am wondering why?

"... depends how far are we willing to go down the rabbit hole to find out"

Absolutely. The quotes on this blog are all about going all the way, i.e. about spiralling into the void, as Rumi puts it (see today's quote).

"Letting go of what we think is, to find out that it isnt".

Yes. Whereby 'letting go' simply means being willing to experience, just once, that which is beyond the thinking, feeling and intuitive mind; it's the feeling into, falling into and becoming one with the abyss, the Nothingness, the Emptiness. Nothing else is needed to discover that you are, and never have not been, Peace and Stillness.

"Is self making these complications, is the egoic self in constant battle with its self".

Yes. There is nothing the egoic self longs for more than liberation, and nothing it fears more - it knows that liberation equals annihilation.

"You have titled this non-sensical world. And I am wondering why?"

Because nothing in this world is what it appears to be - it's all smoke and mirrors; a mirage; an illusion; a dream.
