I avoid being selfishI meditated on this thread tonight and it proved an eye opener.
I was aware of a huge orchestra playing a symphony. The conductor was standing alone at it's centre. As he moved his baton the music rose and sank accordingly. He, the self, was creating the music ,but the orchestra was playing it, and although the orchestra was made up of individuals they were lost in the oneness of the music that they created.
The music was only there for each instant, and then gone into another instant before vanishing into the nothingness that it came from.
It was beauty created when the self becomes a part of the one, and loses it's identity in order to become the true beauty that is all.
