there are two states of Oneness that the hooman can achieve. they are the Sunrise. the new dawn that looks out at the world with a child’s wonder or the Sunset. the dusk of return to the Infinite. the bittersweet sadness of returning home to the dinner bell

once the stage of verbalization and identity formation is reached the hooman exits the Eden of the Sunrise state and into the world of suffering

to return to oneness requires the full acceptance of Death. until the child learns to accept death it will be stuck in a perpetual loop of growing pains and a shredded sense of self. the constipation of arrested development.

modernity slows this process down through civilizational advances and more means of pushing away Death. this creates fewer and fewer true adults over time.
