Un-Othered
Sometimes I have the experience of being "un-othered" as someone called it. What is that? It is when I suddenly have the sense or realization, interior something, that this other person or bit of nature is not "other" than me, but one with, connected with me such that I don't compete or judge or avoid or ignore the person. Or I don't see this bit of nature, creation as something that gets in my way, or is ugly. Even the tree is not just a tree that I am looking at while my ego makes commentary. In other words, my ego stops being in charge. Ego is always making separation and judgments. When I am in this "un-othered" space I am free of fear, resentment and envy. I am all I need to be and so is the world around me. It all passes but it tells me that there is something other than my ego driven life.
