Dreamster, I think you said it .... in a nutshell !
Even though a word or a concept can only ever be a "finger pointing at the moon and never the moon itself" ..... still; - what you wrote here Doktor Green, leads me into silence .... tasting the ring of truth of your words ....
Quote:Regarding Death, it is my experience that this force is omnipresent, much like the Nahual. As we become attuned to our own energetic bubble, it can be felt, pressuring us. Death can be our greatest Ally, in that we can wield the greatest power of these lower realms once we embrace it! Can we escape it??? I will say that we can retain the "Integrity" of our awareness if we bypass the Eagle. We will not be the individual we are in this moment, but we will be aware of ourselves as a drop in the ocean of life... with fully activated potentials!
**************************
Does "bypassing the Eagle" mean, that when Death as an Ally comes and the pressure of "blackness" ... (like having thousands of eyes upon one) .... is felt ...... it in turn forces one to enter more fully into "Third Attention"..... ( )
And as we begin to enter more fully into the said "Third Attention" and we start losing the sense of "I" as the primary reference point to our awareness (in the scheme of things) ...... then it is as though an inner Eye starts to open instead..... thus like replacing the "I".
Though this Eye is difficult to locate .....it is both inner and outer; - yet neither.

One Buddhist teacher once said; - quote:
"It is not a matter of getting in or out of things, it is the doorway itself that is important, because that is where the energy (or power) ...... is".
I suppose, this is my intent, to fully dare to shift my AP to that "doorway" of life & death ....void & manifestation .... time & timelessness .... and witness all the marvels and the power this "Third Attention" unfolds to the said "Eye" ..... whilst still alive .....
Which is like living on the "Razor's Edge" ... balancing between terror and ecstasy ... not getting "high" or "drunk on Cosmic", but not "freaking out" either ....
