Assumptions:
-) We influence, if not create, reality but we have no idea how we do it, nor we have any control over this - because any event is an outcome of practically infinitive number of factors that contributed to its arising.
-) “Reality” is analogue, Universe is analogue, everything FLOWS rather than progressing step by step
-) Any event must exist in a field of potentiality before it arises - any event must exist in a state of an unobserved particle, when its state is un-determined
-) The State of Potentiality is the most powerful state, absolutely still and absolutely silent, like a Calm before the Storm, or Nothingness before Big Bang, it is a state of pure, accumulated energy that hasn’t decided what to do with itself yet hehehehehe

Now then:
Let’s consider for a moment a balloon being filled with air. If we continue filling balloon with air - it will explode sooner or later. But if we make a tiny hole in it - some of the air will be escaping. The explosion will not be as powerful and entirely different - because of this tiny little hole.
Or, if we consider a particle in its un-determined state - even a sneak glance at it, a minute observation, will determine at least some of its state - and therefore particle will lose its infinitive potential of being anything.

Therefore any useless speculation on what is or will be actually chips away from what is or will be, dilutes it. It is like watching the balloon filling with air, not knowing that there is a tiny hole in it somewhere.

Furthermore we are, particularly these days, “digital creatures”… we think in “digital”, not analogue, we think in “steps”, we think in “if this then that” procedural language.
But we also know that everything, including our brains, is analogue. Therefore there are always “gaps” between “steps”, between “this or that”, we think, we perceive, we analyse, we speak - always digitally, always from one point to the next, missing the gaps in between points.

Therefore the outcome we expect is always “skewed”, inaccurate, or not even resembling our “trend predictions” - because we are entirely blind to half of the “story”… i.e. “gaps”

The more we try to predict, analyse, define, describe - the more “gaps” we create in the process… and hence the more we move away from what is really happening. One could say that the “real life” is happening exactly “there” - in the field of gaps which we cannot perceive, due to digital, logical “yes or no” nature of our brains, due to the fact that we think in order to determine.

And I start to think that this is where “being in touch with oneself” term originates from. It is not a metaphor, it is actually an act of Mind touching, “linking” with the Heart, on vibrational level, thus creating an envelope of stillness and silence, embracing the field of potential, rather than panickly trying to dissolve it with thoughts and/or words.

It is only natural. We are scared of stillness and silence, energy seemingly not moving, not manifesting itself - for we simply and quite logically equate it with Death.

“Being in Touch with Oneself” is a practice, a method, of opening oneself to those “gaps”, learning to acknowledge them, learning to CONCIOUSLY live through them, and, first of all of course hehehehehe, learning to unlearn the fear of them.

P.S.

• Some people touch the area of their heart in order to confirm/re-affirm that they are trying to get “in touch” hehehehehehe
• Eadon tells me: So getting in touch with reality is touch in the sense of “observation”, by observing ourselves, we make ourselves reality and hence learn about ourselves, hence getting in touch with ourselves.
