🌚☕️🌝Wholeness and Authenticity

"The eye of providence glows under the blackberry kiss of her lips, In the warmth of our bed, our hearts entwined, the city lights fade like whispers left behind, my gaze rests in the peach glow of the moon's mysterious grey shadow, as her eyelashes dance on the moon’s crest of freckles, we long for our Iridescent Clouds of Light...” ~Echoalia

• Notes from Athena: 

• The phrase "thou art already what is sought" is a philosophical and spiritual saying suggesting that the goal of a quest—whether for happiness, enlightenment, self-understanding, or truth—is not an external object to be acquired, but rather an inherent quality or state of being that is already present within the seeker. 

• This concept is prevalent across various spiritual traditions (such as certain schools of Buddhism, Taoism, and Advaita Vedanta) and emphasizes: Immediacy: The solution or answer one seeks is available in the present moment, not in some future attainment. Innateness: The core of what is being looked for (e.g., peace, the divine, the true self) is an intrinsic part of who one is, not something outside oneself. 

• The Futility of External Search: The act of searching externally is seen as based on a misunderstanding that the desired object is separate or distant. The "search" itself creates the illusion of distance from the sought goal. 

• Self-Realization: The process is less about finding something new and more about recognizing or "uncovering" what has been there all along. The journey ends when the seeker realizes the search was unnecessary. 

• In essence, the phrase means that you already possess the very thing you are striving to find; all that is needed is a shift in perspective to recognize this truth. ~Athena
