On the Nature of & Relation between Form & Formlessness: Part 2: The Identification of the Formless with Lesser Form

Abstract

What is described in the second part of this work is what happens when the Observer, for whatever reason, begins to identify with, i.e., know itself as, the experiential forms that have come into existence within Itself as a result of its being in relation to Itself. Specifically, what the second part of this work describes is the way in which the misidentification of the Observer with the lesser forms that have come into existence within Itself causes the Observer to become unable to be aware or conscious of Itself, i.e., unable to be aware or conscious of the Formlessness that is Itself, and so causes the Observer to lose sight of Itself, to become hidden from Itself, thereby causing the lesser forms that continue to be created within Itself, which forms the Observer remains aware of or conscious of as reality, to appear as what is actually there, when What Is Actually There, where the forms apprehended as reality only appear to be, is the now hidden Observer, the now hidden Formlessness, within which those forms have come into existence and by which those forms are being apprehended as reality. Also described in the second part of this work is both why and how the Observer naturally tends to relate to the world of forms, once it has lost sight of Itself though identification with form, in a way that causes Itself to suffer. This Part 2 contains the following sections: The human condition; The creation of emotional reality as Beingness flows through Form; & The Self-oppositional nature of form-identification.
