Oneness and Changes in Social Dynamics

The way that social interactions are experienced seem to change significantly when one comes from this place of this one non-thing. Let’s reflect on some of the more prominent changes that occur, some of the fruits of oneness, if you will.

Everyone is You

First and foremost, everyone and everything is literally seen to be the same whatever-this-is that you are. Everything, including whatever it is that would be referred to as yourself, is this same nameless presence. Truly can not be named. It just is. It’s a presence. It has no more substance than the fact that it exists. It is formless isness.

This is fundamental. This is clear. There is no such thing as anything else when all is this isness. Everything is. Nothing else is. There are many faces to this one isness. It is this isness that is now at the forefront, not the masks that the isness wears.

Seeing the masks, it’s almost like you can look at everyone you see playing their roles, and you can smile and give them a knowing wink, recognizing who they REALLY are despite external experiences.

A Distinct Lack of Fear

Now that this isness is present, no longer is there anything or anyone to be afraid of. If it’s all you, what else is there to be afraid of? There is ONLY you.

No longer is there the intimidation of people whose labels and roles include things such as hot girl, celebrity, president, criminal, homeless guy, police officer, famous person, or whatever else a person could be that could be a cause for fear, worry, anxiety, discomfort, or dis-ease.

You see through external appearances, recognizing the innate beauty equally present in all beings.

There is an immense appreciation and love of self, and by extension for all “others” for all others are one with what you are.

All others are simply new ways for you to experience yourself. That’s it. Nothing more than that. The entire universe is simply a huge playground of possibilities for the One to experience itself by interacting with itself.

Social Freedom

There is also a dropping away of worrying what others think, about judgment, about looking good in front of others, or in any way trying to compromise yourself so that you fit in. The sense of judgment just doesn’t seem to come up much anymore. All that stuff exists on a layer of mental abstraction that is a layer above pure being. Everything is being. Mental stuff is on a totally different realm, and doesn’t really get accessed much anymore, though it certainly may occasionally without being taken as seriously since it is beingness that is at the root of experience, not judgment and mental perception.

Not only is there no “me” to build up and look cool without a distinct lack of separate self, as discussed previously, but there’s no one to live by the traditional rules of social dynamics and how life “should be.”

This isn’t to say that all rules are broken entirely, no, but there’s an easing up happening on the limits one places upon themselves on how they “should” act and a freedom to act in a way that is more natural, light, fun, and free. There is a space to truly just BE  YOURSELF, in whatever way life chooses to expresses itself in this moment. In this life here, life is moving to experience itself in a few fun new ways. For example,

Wanna jump into a pool with your clothes on? DO IT!

Wanna walk into a place wearing something comfortable and casual instead of something appropriately formal yet uncomfortable? GO FOR IT!

Wanna smile and relax instead of be uptight when the socially acceptable thing is to be stressed out and serious? ENJOY YOURSELF!

Sure you may not necessarily “fit in” with how others think you should act. Sure you may even get kicked out of certain places. (haha… :D )

What happens is that you start to find your groove and you begin to notice the difference between people and situations that ARE in harmony with you versus people and situations that ARE NOT in harmony with you. So you begin to create around yourself a world that is in sync with this new sense of freedom and vitality that is radiating from your presence.

Some old friends may leave you. Sure. You’ll probably make new friends. There can certainly be a lot of rearrangement in relationships once you start being more genuinely yourself and free, finding that this “new you” is compatible with different energies as compared to the “old you.”

No Expectations

What we would call success is no longer measured in results or expectations being met. No no.

Success, if there even was such a thing, would be a way to denote how deeply one can truly be WHO THEY ARE. How deeply can you shine your light? Literally right now. In the moment. THIS moment. It’s here and now, being yourself. It has nothing to do with the results of being yourself, and everything to do the degree of transparency of self, allowing for the presence of Self.

and I don’t mean to set this up as some sort of measurement system or goal to reach. A sun shining with only a teensy weensy cloud in the way is in no way better than a sun shining through a completely overcast sky. Not at all. One view of the sun is simply more pure and unobstructed when viewed from a point on earth than another view of the sun. That’s all. Not better or worse. Just less distorted.

Without worrying about how others will perceive you, there is a space to be unbelievably vulnerable and truthful, both with yourself and with others. and the funny thing is most of us are thinking the same thing anyways! You know, the pink elephant in the room. You can say things that are going on for you and others will laugh because they’re thinking them too! It’s just a matter of opening up and being real with yourself and others.

Allowing Others to Be

Along with the freedom to be yourself comes the space to allow others to be whoever they’re choosing to be.

Being yourself is its own reward. No longer getting caught up in the drama of others is its own reward. The freedom to just BE, my goodness… how liberating!

In no way do you need anyone else to change or see the world the way you do. If anything, you’d rather them simply be who THEY are. In this, there is the space created for others to remember who they are and to let go of their self-imposed limitations.

You are literally being the change you wish to see in the world, a living model of social freedom. Yet you are not doing it to prove anything to anyone, but because it just feels so RIGHT to be the infinite free being that you are in your very essence.

There’s no need for others to be like you, but a space created for others to be like THEM.

You be who you really are. I’ll be who I really am. And all the details will take care of themselves thanks to the magic called synchronicity and divine flow.

Freedom. Truly just freedom…
