What is spirituality? What isn't? What is the worldly? The material? What is there to be known? What salvation?
There is no non-duality, no oneness, not more than duality or plurality. To understand one, the other becomes instrumental. There is no world, no spirit, no matter. There is no other state. There is nothing but this.
So what are you? What am i? Is the question not already revealing what you are? Is what fills the cup, the definition of the cup? Who can identify with non-identification?
To find what you are with consciousness is like traveling in time to find how time begun. There is no before, no after, not for what you are. What you seek is already in the seeking. It is the light (matter, energy, life, being, whatever) of which seeking and non-seeking is made. It is simply here. It is not for you to grasp. There is no grasping of anything. There just this matter-spirit expressed in all forms. It needs not grasping, it needs not seeking. It has nothing to do with you. It does not need you to find it.
No matter where you go you shall always be where you are. There is no way out, no way in. There is no spirituality, no worldly. There is just this life-death, this you-not-you, this lost-and-found, this clarity-confusion. You need not to seek and you need not put seeking to a halt. There is no way in and no way out.

This is great Ben. I really like what you've written here :-)
"It is simply here. It is not for you to grasp. There is no grasping of anything. There just this matter-spirit expressed in all forms. It needs not grasping, it needs not seeking. It has nothing to do with you. It does not need you to find it."
As you say, there is no way in, no way out.
We are just left with what is. What is is always fresh and clear. What is is obvious.
Let the mind chase its tail. Who cares? As Benjamin says,
There is no way in,
No way out.
Thanks Ben.
