Summary

This quote highlights the cyclical nature of existence, portraying life and death as a continuous journey. It suggests that we constantly transition between different states of consciousness, alternating between waking and dreaming. The phrase "blinking" symbolizes these transitions, where layers of reality are unraveled and woven together again. It also implies that amidst these transitions, no layer or experience is superior or inferior to another; each has its own significance in the ebb and flow of life's mysteries.

I like structure - like driving: go past the school on the street, stay on the right side, no hitting the car, go in right, you'll see a big church, stop and take a left, and you'll have it. By doing this I'm giving a structure of life, a path of light, and showing what happens between me and me, which is something very beautiful.
