Sphere of Implication

If we observe our thoughts we can see that we often think by means of association. One thought leads to another and so on. I would like to look at that from a certain angle, to make that angle clear I will call it a sphere of implication. The sphere of implication is all the ideas and theories, beliefs and world views attached to a thought as well as the associations.

What happens when you perceive something and there is no sphere of implication – no association. Then the fundamental reality of existence is seen as it is. The sphere of implication dissolves. Even the implication that there is something to dissolve is gone. The observer is gone. No eye, ear, nose, tongue, body mind.

What do you see then? You see the snowflake falling to the ground – but it is no longer a snowflake. Without the sphere of implication, what is it?

Wonderful snowflakes they fall nowhere else but here.
