The Originless
Metamorphity — Guiding Transformation
Guiding transformation.
Let’s take a few quiet moments together.
You might begin by noticing that you’re here — breathing, listening, simply aware.
Awareness — the quiet backdrop behind everything that moves.
Behind sound, behind thought, behind the breath itself.
Now ask softly, not as a riddle but as a wonder:
What was here before this awareness?
Before thought.
Before memory.
Before the idea of “me.”
Notice that even the question arises within awareness.
And yet awareness remains — silent, vast, without edge or center.
Can you find the moment it began?
A place where it started?
If you look carefully, there’s only this — the knowing that cannot be known from the outside — the infinite present that dreams itself into time.
This awareness is not inside you.
You are inside it.
A wave of the same ocean that has no shore.
The Originless
This… is what the ancients called the Originless — not the start of something, but the unbroken field that was never born.
No first spark, no final ember — only the endless radiance that allows all beginnings to appear.
When we say originless, we are not speaking about time.
We are pointing to what holds time, as the sky holds the wind.
And yet, here we are — breathing, thinking, loving — each of us a unique expression within the infinite.
If consciousness is endless, what value then do we add?
Why do we create, strive, or care?
Perhaps the answer is not in adding to infinity,
but in participating in it.
Through every act of beauty,
every gesture of kindness,
the infinite knows itself anew —
not as theory, but as touch, as laughter, as the warmth of a hand.
You and I are not fragments of something greater.
We are the great whole, remembering itself in form.
Each moment of attention, each breath taken consciously, is creation occurring again.
The infinite expresses as you —
and in that recognition,
meaning is born without needing to be made.
Rest Here
Rest here, for a moment.
In the stillness before all beginnings.
The originless, dreaming itself as this moment —
and quietly smiling through your eyes.
