The Rhythm, the steps, and the dance.

The Rhythm, the steps, and the dance.
You began your meditations without any pre-programming, meditations of freedom, of abandon. You found the tangibilities of them, so, your findings were not hallucination; you were not informed about what... may happen, so you did not imagine it. Your perceptions were authentic. You even reached the bliss experience, the total reflection from the mirror of the self upon the self. Such a meditator therefore knows, he is in rhythm with a great force. This force has not come by will or command, but it just is. You do not understand fully what you have embarked upon; but, the tangibilities of these meditations are so luring, that you are drawn into participating further. This, is a crucial stage, you have the rhythm, now, you want to learn the steps, you want to know what can be done with this force, this energy, can it be put to good cause?
Yes, but the attitude of mastery over the energy, one that many have had, is a wrong one. No one needs to master the universe, it belongs to us all. You cannot intrude upon the force, you must not manipulate it. This is short lived, and puts you back in the ultimate analysis. You wonder again, can it be put to good cause? Yes. But this is more like a dance, a participation, you have been drawn by the force, therefore accept it as the initiator of the dance. You are conscious of your own rhythm, now, follow its steps, let it lead to you to spontaneity. Enjoy the dance. When you are both in perfect harmony, when you both merge into the dance, when you have so far responded to her every call, when; she finally accepts you as a mate, you will learn to make a new step, and she shall respond.
This is not mastery of one over the other, this is a meeting of two masters. A jugalbandi, a duet. The eternal meditator at the transcendence and the eternal energy force tapping at the manifest. You realise, that meditation, beginning as a step of introduction, turns into a mystical stairway leading higher and higher into a crescendo.
