Imagine a horizontal infinity symbol—on one side, mind; on the other, body. Thoughts and sensations teeter like a seesaw, reacting to each other. Yet from the still point in the center—the observer’s seat—these movements can be watched separately: thought without body, sensation without thought.
Fear offers an example. Usually, it’s thought plus sensation. But if awareness allows the body to feel its reaction while letting the mind simply witness, the two untangle. Sensation passes through. Thought flickers and fades. The biofeedback loop—mind escalating body, body fueling mind—dissolves. Thought is just thought. Sensation is just sensation.
It’s like a computer full of software and screens, but without electricity, nothing runs. Thought and sensation are the forms. Awareness is the current. At the center of the figure-eight lies this junction of aliveness—the flowing Now—where the train of experience rides: mind and body, world and self, all passing scenery on the Earth ride through space, the space ride through universe, the universe ride through nowhere.
Here, belief merges with philosophy and cosmology. The changing colors of life become kavod—the Jewish mystical term for glory, awe, holy and respect. The observer is not trying to arrive, but to witness—to ride the rhythm, not reach the end.
So where is it going? From here to there, through nowhere.
And what holds it all together when there’s no final stop?
There is the music.
Not a solution, but a song.
Not an answer, but a resonance.
And in that resonance, we are not lost—we are played.
