You Are Whole And Also Part Of

Any Really Good Scientist Is As Much An Artist As A Scientist. All The Interesting Stuff Is Found On The Edge Between Knowing And Not Knowing. I Know That Sounds Like A Meditation Teacher Speaking, But When You're In The Laboratory, Or You're Theorizing About Physics, You Need To Know What You Know, But If You Can't Get Out From Under That, You Won't Be Able To Make That Insightful, First-time Connection That Nobody Else Has Seen Before.

But When We Start To Focus In On What Our Own Mind Is Up To, For Instance, It Is Not Unusual To Quickly Go Unconscious Again, To Fall Back Into An Automatic-pilot Mode Of Unawareness. These Lapses In Awareness Are Frequently Caused By An Eddy Of Dissatisfaction With What We Are Seeing Or Feeling In That Moment, Out Of Which Springs A Desire For Something To Be Different, For Things To Change.

See For Yourself Whether Letting Go When A Part Of You Really Wants To Hold On Doesn't Bring A Deeper Satisfaction Than Clinging.

Can You Question Who You Are? And Are You Comfortable With Not Knowing?

Maybe The Fear Is That We Are Less Than We Think We Are, When The Actuality Of It Is That We Are Much Much More.
