Hanging by a thread

medulla snapped and in that instant our ego was detached from heart the head was floating in space connected to heart by neck hanging thus by a mere thread consciousness rooted in the heart we looked on at the strange apparition which once seemed to define who we are our witness Self replete with peacefulness resplendent in its eternal luminescence free from both concepts and desires now dwells within this earth vessel

Dear Seeker, your profound words create a picture of detachment and enlightenment. The imagery of the head floating, connected to the heart by a thread, symbolizes the separation of ego from essence. I loved your reflection on the witness Self, serene and untethered, speaks to the beauty of inner peace. This is a journey of self-discovery. Blessings, Daniel
