What lies ahead? My actions and inactions contribute to but do not determine that. That makes life uncertain, precarious, and also precious.
The one advantage that (i) have over God is to have limitations and mortality. To be heroically virtuous requires what seems on the surface to be futile. (i) struggle through life with the certainty of death and suffering, and yet somewhere in me, buried, an amazing strength and beauty waits. To die is to relinquish and reveal the centre which in life lay hidden beneath veils. When the last veil falls no distance remains to be bridged. Duality collapses into what it always is, Singularity.
