THE DANCE WITHOUT DANCERS
Frank Moore 2011
What we have here is
only the first smell of fresh magic.
Matter is hollow tubes
containing fibers
of packets of possibilities.
Matter is symbol,
is metaphor
containing possibilities.
These packets shape matter.
These packets, in turn,
are reshaped by
each body /object
they pass through.
We are affected
by the stars,
and the stars
are affected
by us.
We affect the Tarot cards
and the I‑Ching coins
we cast.
The physicists affect
the subatomic particles
they observe.
By reshaping
these inner packets,
the material reality is reshaped.
The inner rivers of possibilities
are two‑way on the linear level.
The magical effects are always
two‑way.
The light of the sun warms us;
but we affect the sun through
the same channel.
We have entered the level
of the dynamic web
of relationships
in which the individual
does not exist.
In place of the individual,
there appear points
of personal responsibility
in a dance.
It is not the sun that warms,
nor is it us who are warmed.
It is the dance of no dancers,
the dance of relationships
that warms,
and that is warmed.
Reality creation
is a dance.
We are the dancers.
But in truth,
it is a dance
without dancers.
If we really take
on personal responsibility
for the dance,
we surrender to the dance,
give up individual "control,"
give up individual linking
with the results.
By taking on the personal responsibility
for the dance,
we are the dance.
We melt with the dance.
We are only the dance.
We admit these facts.
It is not a question
of becoming,
but of remembering
and admitting.
It is a question
of being,
living,
dancing lustfully,
without controls
or limits
in responsibility.
The life dance
is beyond morals
or limits.
It joyfully digs
into the dance
to the juicy black core.
