Realization of no self is very destabilizing for the mindset that makes up the previously assumed identity, but it gets easier. Satisfaction is fleeting. Being Free and at Peace is eternally available. IT is what ONE actually IS. |

Wonderful song. Period. I approached the song from an existential angle, in consideration of my own journey. The song opens with the protagonist at the door, drunk on spirit on the latest taste of freedom, and the hidden fears/shadows/guilt made their way back into psyche. The rest of the song plays out as a beautiful string of faint and familiar symbols of re-acquainting with a reality that never really seems whole, is somewhat disconnected, and the mind is seeking to piece it together in a way that makes sense. It seems always to try to keep things together just long enough for more clarity to arise, which requires for certain previous conditioning to 'fall' or deeper, more profound self-knowledge to 'rise'. ~It's all G00D. |
