Dirty Enlightenment: The Inherent Perfection of Imperfection

by Peter Brown

My experience gets so clear at times, but then there’s this supposed guy who gets into a funk... What would be a good thing to do? Well, look at what the “funk” is made of. It’s made of energy in consciousness, just like a vision of clarity is made of energy in consciousness. Are they really fundamentally different? Why prefer the one to the other? Why do you think clarity IS clarity; why do you think “being in a funk” is NOT clarity? -Well I know it doesn’t feel good... Right. But instead of defining it as not feeling “good”, define it as feeling a certain way; and if you look closely it doesn’t even feel a certain way, it feels a continuously changing range of ways, each of which is infinite, subtle, and indescribable. But you collapse all that infinite range of qualities simplistically as “a funk” and “not good”. You’re oversimplifying. And you can look at that, if you can, WHILE you’re doing it and see if what you’re thinking about it is actually TRUE, is an unchallengeable and TOTALLY accurate depiction of what it actually IS.
