Begin

In Sanskrit, neti neti is a term used to describe God. It means, "Not this, not that." Basically, you can't put God or ultimate reality or whatever you want to call it in words.  Makes sense.

And still, even after thousands of years of knowing that we are still trying. Myself included.

There is also an idea among many religious traditions of  not taking one's self or work too seriously.  When it comes down to it, our individuality dissolves in the oneness that is.  What happens is just play.

It is from this space that I begin, again.
