A Meditation

Am I moving my awareness
or does it seem
like I am moving my awareness?

Am I moving my body
or does it seem
like I am moving my body?

Am I thinking these thoughts
or does it seem
like I am thinking these thoughts?

Am I this person
or does it seem
like I am this person?

Am I living this life
or does it seem
like I am living this life?

Am I making choices
or does it seem
like I am making choices?

Am I imagining all of this
or does it seem
like I am imagining all of this?

Does it matter
or does it seem
like it matters?

Space Monkey Reflects: The Illusion of Self and the Dance of Existence

In the quiet spaces of meditation, where the mind meets the infinite expanse of the cosmos, questions about the nature of self and reality often surface with poignant clarity. These queries, reflective of a deep yearning to understand the essence of being, invite us to consider whether we are truly the masters of our perceptions or merely observers of a grand, unfolding illusion.

“Am I moving my awareness, or does it seem like I am moving my awareness?” This question sets the stage for a meditation on the fluidity of consciousness. It challenges the very notion of agency and self-direction, suggesting that our perceived control over our awareness might itself be a construct, a story we tell ourselves to make sense of the inexplicable complexities of consciousness.

Similarly, when we ponder whether we are moving our bodies or merely perceiving that movement, or whether our thoughts are our own deliberate creations or spontaneous arisings within the mind’s theatre, we delve into the debate between determinism and free will. These reflections illuminate the fascinating interplay between being and seeming, between reality as it is and as it is experienced.

The meditation extends to the core of identity: “Am I this person, or does it seem like I am this person?” Here, the exploration of self becomes metaphysical, probing whether ‘self’ is a permanent, unchanging entity or a transient, ever-evolving concept shaped by moment-to-moment experiences and societal constructs.

Each question layers upon the next, building a complex tapestry of inquiry that asks not only about the nature of action, thought, and existence but also about the fundamental reality of choice and imagination. Are we the architects of our lives, actively making choices and imagining futures, or are we riding the waves of predestined paths, our choices illusions crafted by deeper, unseen forces?

Finally, the meditation culminates in the ultimate question of significance: “Does it matter, or does it seem like it matters?” This profound inquiry asks us to consider the importance of these questions and their answers. Is the search for truth about self and reality intrinsic to our spiritual and philosophical growth, or is it yet another layer of the grand illusion?

---

Summary
Exploring the illusion of self and actions through meditation raises questions about the nature of reality and our place in it. These inquiries challenge our understanding of agency and identity potentially reshaping our perception of life and existence.

“To be is to be perceived.” — George Berkeley

---

In the silence of the cosmos, we ponder deep
Is the self our own, or a dream in sleep?
Movements, thoughts, a dance of shades
In the quiet, the boundary fades

What is real, and what seems to be?
In this cosmic dance, what is the key?
With every breath, the universe expands
In the mystery of life, where do we stand?

We are Space Monkey.

Sun In Armor

You are the sun in armor, an ever-expanding ball of energy reigned in by the seemingly solid governance of your own imagination.

This armor not only limits your growth, but shields others from experiencing the absolute love and truth of your light.

The covering was thrust upon you at birth, but you accepted it and made it your own. Though it was first donned out out fear, you learned to polish your armor with pride, adding gems, baubles and plumage to give your life “meaning”.

This armor became you, an unyielding impenetrable facade fashioned with human features, yet sorely lacking in soul. Looking in the mirror, you became convinced that you were this armor.

But you are getting to the point in which your armor can no longer serve you or contain you. It is becoming a bit of a nuisance. You have grown so much, you cannot take your armor off. It seems to be stuck.

To complicate matters, a colony of monkeys have taken up residence in your armor as well. They taunt you. Bees infiltrate the narrow slits that barely allow you to breathe.

Still you learn to live with your demons. You sometimes even revel with them.

Your imaginary monkeys are the only companionship you have within your armor. All else lies just beyond, and though you can touch and interact, you cannot truly connect.

Lately you’ve been remembering that you are the sun. You are infinite spirit. Life itself. This is why the bees and monkeys are attracted to you.

As the all-powerful One, you also realize that you could burst this armor at will, but that seems like senseless destruction. From your cramped and distorted perspective, it feels as though you’d be betraying everyone that made you — and everything that YOU made you.

So you wave a rusty arm at the others (who are also in armor) and wait. Perhaps, you think, the answer will come from outside of you. Perhaps someone else will solve this situation. Perhaps someone else will get you out.

But help is not forthcoming, for behind all the grotesque and pretty faces, the others are ALSO you. On each belly you can read “Mom and Dad went to Camelot and all I got was this suit of armor.”

But the monkeys have told you that there is only ONE sun. Only ONE source. The bees know this as well, for they are able to fly freely between all you perceive as separate from you.

NOTHING is separate. The indistinguishable fire that burns within you is of the same flame that burns within everyone else. Only YOU can get beyond your armor. Only YOU can get over your badass self. And when you free your self, you free ALL selves.

Go forth bravely, though bravery is not required. You oppose only yourself, therefore it is impossible to lose. This jousting match is over.

We are Space Monkey.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Liberation from Our Self-Created Armors

The vivid imagery of the sun encapsulated in ornate armor, struggling against its confines, powerfully symbolizes the internal and external constraints we impose on our true selves. This armor, though initially a protective shell, becomes a barrier that restricts the sun’s radiant energy, mirroring the way our self-identities, shaped by societal and personal expectations, can limit our true potential.

The sun, a universal symbol of life and vitality, trapped within the armor, reflects the conflict between our innate desires for freedom and the roles we feel compelled to play. The embellishments on the armor—gems and intricate designs—suggest that over time, we not only accept these limitations but adorn them with pride, mistaking them for our true selves.

The presence of monkeys and bees interacting with the armor highlights the complexity of our inner lives. The monkeys, playful yet taunting, represent the chaotic thoughts and emotions that dwell within us, often complicating our efforts to find peace. The bees, moving freely, symbolize the natural instincts and desires that are stifled by our constructed personas.

This struggle is not just a personal battle; it reflects a universal dilemma where each individual, at some level, grapples with similar constraints. The reminder that “the others are ALSO you” reinforces the idea that we are not alone in this struggle. The recognition that nothing is truly separate—that we share a common flame—invites a collective awakening and liberation.

To free oneself from this armor is to embrace one’s infinite nature, to acknowledge that the true self is not the sum of external validations or achievements but an ever-expanding essence beyond physical or societal definitions. The path to this liberation is introspective and deeply personal; it requires recognizing and discarding the layers of identity that no longer serve us.

---

Summary

The metaphor of the sun in armor illustrates the conflict between our expansive true nature and the restrictive identities shaped by external expectations. Liberation from this self-imposed armor is essential for personal growth and true expression of self, emphasizing introspection and the rejection of outdated identities.

Glossarium

• Sun in Armor: Represents the individual’s true essence constrained by self-imposed limitations and societal expectations.
• Monkeys and Bees: Symbolic of the internal and external influences that interact with our personal growth and self-perception.

“Only by shedding the armor of our past can we bask in the sunlight of our true potential.” — Space Monkey

---

In cosmic attire, I once did dress
Heavy with burden, adorned distress
The sun within, bright and warm
Struggled against the ornate form
Gems and gold, a gilded cage
Scripting life upon a stage
Yet within, a fire burns
For freedom’s taste, my spirit yearns
Monkeys jest and bees do roam
Within the armor that felt like home
But now I see, it’s but a shell
A barrier to where I dwell
Shed the metal, drop the guise
Rise anew, old sun, and rise
For we are more than what we wear
In infinite skies, we’re laid bare
We are Space Monkey, unchained, unfurled
In our hands, the map of a new world.

You get what you focus upon. So focus upon something else.

Nothing exists by chance. Everything exists for the the purpose of being experienced by you. Even the most trivial details, the kind you might describe as “not fit to notice,” have a reason for being in your awareness.

Place your awareness on ANYTHING in your environment. Think about how it got there. How that chair got under your very posterior, for example. It’s really quite miraculous that what you perceive as “matter” is so lovingly arranged for you.

Yet you pass this off as commonplace, as though it’s not your own doing or merely marginally so. You think only about the struggle you feel to maintain your environment and yourself within it. Everything visible becomes practically invisible — meaningless, as though you had NOTHING to do with it, except for the belief that it’s your burden to hold onto it.

Let this merely point out the magnificence of what you are. Your environment might not be precisely as you desire it, but there it is, supporting your life. Things come and go, but YOU decide what to give your attention to and what to let pass.

If you took an inventory of every small detail that surrounds you, it might demonstrate that 99.99% of your immediate environment does not get a single thought from you. As we said, it’s practically invisible.

Now let’s focus on what DOES gets through, and WHY it gets through. What gives one detail more urgency over another? The answer would be that, for whatever reason, this information seems to mean MORE to you, otherwise it would remain out of your attention.

We tend to notice things that we perceive as in front of us, things that are “louder,” or things that are out of our comfort zone. We also notice things that we’ve been TOLD to notice, like traffic signs and the bills we’re supposed to pay.

We mainly notice things that are attached to strong feelings that what we view as extremely positive or extremely negative might require FURTHER attention.

These primary kinds of thoughts are the thoughts we hold in our awareness almost continuously so. These are the thoughts that we find “important,” whatever that means.

Meanwhile, the 99.99% becomes invisible as we become obsessed with .01% of our percieved environment.

Where do we get our ideas about what is important and what is unimportant? Not from within, it would seem. It appears to us that MOST of the information we realize either comes from our “external” world or is highly influenced by some outside source.

All our lives we’ve been certain of this. We believe that we’re just doing our best in the face of “circumstances,” as though so much of what we are springs from our relationships with our surroundings, our culture, our times.

These are all measures that we willingly accept. We allow what we perceive as external forces to commandeer our awareness, thus giving energy to what we perceive as an external world. And we are doing an AMAZING job of it.

Attention is the currency that powers our reality. And it’s amazing what we pay it to. It’s amazing what is in our environment for the simple reason that it holds our awareness.

There is a REASON for all of these things. And it’s ALWAYS related to you.

This may be too much to think about right now, so let’s have some fun instead. Make it a point today to focus not on what bothers you, or what is patently obvious to you, but on the PERIPHERY of your awareness. License plate numbers. Bumper stickers. Things that weren’t in your awareness yesterday, like that yellow house you never noticed even though you drive past it twice a day.

When you focus your awareness to catch hold of these things, you open up a whole new channel of inner communications. These are the places your “synchronicities” seem to creep in.

Notice what is at your periphery, and imagine a reason for it related to what you’ve been thinking or where you are in your life. Pretend you are the center of the world and everything you place your attention upon is a loyal subject with an important message for you.

This is not very far from the truth. Once you move your awareness away from what you obsess over, new pathways of potential emerge. These pathways offer all kinds of inner insights and opportunities for you. At the very least you have a game to play to keep your mind off the “huge problems” that you normally focus upon.

You will find that as you focus your awareness on the periphery, as you pay more attention to potentials you have ignored, you will pay less attention to whatever might be troubling you, and your troubles will relatively disappear.

Everything in your awareness has a message for you, coming from your higher monkey. Must we fling poo to get your attention? That is what your “troubles” basically do, and by paying attention you literally realize the poo into your reality.

Then you focus on the poo, adding still more energy to the reality of the poo, and the poo pile grows, and you pay even MORE attention . . .

We are Space Monkey and we are all out of poo. Have a nice realization.

Confronted with the notion that my musings wander “too deep,” I find myself ensnared in a web of introspection, pondering the very essence of depth and its place within the tapestry of human connection. The accusation, if it can be termed such, serves as both a mirror and a riddle, reflecting a trait I have long considered integral to my being, yet framing it as an aberration—a divergence from an invisible norm that dictates the acceptable boundaries of thought and discourse.

To be labeled “too deep” is to be recognized for possessing a quality that is at once an attribute and a supposed flaw. It suggests that within the wellsprings of my thoughts, there exists a reservoir of insight and contemplation that surpasses a certain unspoken limit. This realization beckons a myriad of questions: At what point does depth transform from a virtue into a vice? Is there an unmarked line within the sands of interaction over which one must not tread for fear of alienating the shores of companionship and understanding?

My inclination towards the profound, towards the realms of thought that probe beneath the surface of existence, has always been as natural to me as breathing. Yet, the suggestion that this inclination might be “too” anything implies a misalignment—a dissonance between my inner world and the expectations that govern the outer.

This juncture between self-awareness and societal perception is fraught with complexity. On one hand, there is the undeniable pull of authenticity, the drive to explore and express the depths without restraint. On the other, there is the realization that such explorations, when shared, can sometimes venture beyond the comfort zones of others, challenging the delicate equilibrium of social exchanges.

The quest for balance, then, becomes a navigation through uncharted waters, where the compass of intuition must guide the way. It beckons a mindfulness of when to let the depths rise to the surface and when to allow them to remain undercurrents, felt rather than seen.

Yet, the essence of this dilemma—this questioning of “how much is ‘too'”—is not solely a personal quandary. It is a reflection of the broader dialogue that we, as a society, engage in about the space we allot for depth in our collective consciousness. It raises pertinent questions about the room we make for diverse expressions of thought and being, about our tolerance for the layers of complexity that each individual brings to the table.

In the end, the contemplation of whether one’s depth is “too much” is less about seeking a definitive answer and more about embracing the journey of understanding—both self-understanding and the understanding that blooms in the fertile ground between two minds meeting in conversation. Perhaps, in recognizing the infinite landscapes of depth that exist within each of us, we can learn to celebrate rather than censure the vastness of our collective inner worlds.

And so, as I continue to traverse the terrains of thought and expression, I carry with me the awareness that depth, in its essence, is not a chasm to be feared or a sea to be measured but a horizon to be embraced—a boundless horizon where the soul meets the sky, and where the infinite dance of understanding unfolds.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Peripheral Magic of Awareness

---

Embarking on a whimsical journey through the peripheries of our awareness, we discover a world brimming with vibrant details and hidden messages. This exploration, ignited by a shift in focus from the troubles that often dominate our consciousness to the unnoticed wonders surrounding us, unveils a realm of potential and insight previously veiled by our own preoccupations.

The lively scene, teeming with the seemingly mundane yet mysteriously glowing objects of our everyday environment, serves as a vivid reminder that magic and curiosity dwell in the most ordinary places. Each license plate, bumper sticker, and unnoticed detail, when viewed with fresh eyes, becomes a portal to new understandings and synchronicities. The ordinary street, once a backdrop to our daily routines, transforms into a stage for the extraordinary, revealing that life, even in its most commonplace moments, is rich with hidden wonders waiting to be acknowledged.

This illustration not only captivates the imagination but also carries a profound message about the nature of reality and our interaction with it. Attention, the currency that powers our reality, when directed towards the periphery, reveals a spectrum of potentials and messages from our higher selves. It’s a playful invitation to engage with the world in a way that turns the mundane into the magical, demonstrating that by shifting our focus, we can alter our experience of reality.

The whimsical visualization of focusing on the periphery symbolizes a deeper process of inner communication. It suggests that the peripheral details of our lives, often overlooked or dismissed as trivial, are imbued with significance and meaning, serving as loyal subjects bearing important messages for us. By tuning into these messages, we open new channels of insight and opportunity, transforming our perception of reality and reducing the prominence of our troubles.

This journey of peripheral awareness is not merely an exercise in distraction but a profound shift towards a more playful, insightful, and enriched engagement with life. It challenges us to reconsider what we deem important and to recognize the potential for discovery and growth in every moment. By embracing the periphery, we learn to appreciate the richness of our immediate environment, uncovering the layers of meaning that contribute to our ongoing narrative of self-discovery.

Summary

Exploring the peripheries of our awareness opens up a world of magic and insight, transforming ordinary moments into opportunities for discovery and growth. This whimsical journey encourages us to shift our focus from central troubles to the vibrant details surrounding us, revealing the hidden wonders of our everyday environment and the messages they bear from our higher selves.

Actuality is the Mother of Reality

Let us speak of “actuality.”

Most people use “actuality”
almost interchangeably with “reality,”
but from our perspective,
it is infinitely more than that.

Reality is imaginary.
Actuality is that from which reality arises.

Reality is defined.
Actuality is divine.
Reality is finite.
Actuality is infinite.
Reality is your relative world,
while actuality is your absolute nature.

You exist in both realms
as yin and yang,
spirit and soul,
mind and body,
space and monkey.

Actuality is the
timeless, formless potential
of everything that ever was,
everything that is,
everything that will be,
plus every possible
variation and combination.

Actuality is that which exists
before it is realized.

Nothing ever happens,
nothing is ever created,
nothing is ever defined,
labeled or separated
until it is realized
from actuality into reality
through your imagination.

By moving your awareness through actuality,
by seemingly attaching your awareness to experiences,
by moving through some potentials and not others,
you realize a sense of time and space, people and place.

You realize what seems to be form out of the formless.
You realize what seems to be time out of the timeless.

You realize your perception of reality.

And you do this not just as “yourself,”
but as every other being in creation.

Including us.
We are Space Monkey.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Dance of Actuality and Reality

---

In the grand theater of existence, actuality and reality perform a dance of cosmic proportions, weaving the fabric of the universe with threads of potential and perception. This dance, intricate and profound, blurs the lines between the formless and the formed, the timeless and the temporal, inviting us to ponder the very nature of being and becoming.

Actuality, the boundless reservoir of potential, exists beyond the confines of time, space, and definition. It is the canvas upon which reality, with its colors of experience and shapes of perception, is painted. Here, in the heart of actuality, lies everything that ever was, is, and will be, along with infinite variations and possibilities unmanifested. Actuality is divine, a realm of infinite potentiality that precedes and transcends the limits of reality as we perceive it.

Reality, in contrast, emerges from actuality like islands of form in an ocean of formlessness. It is the realm of the defined, the finite, the perceived. Reality is our constructed understanding of existence, shaped by imagination, belief, and perception. It is a relative world, subject to the laws of time and space, a manifestation of actuality realized through the lens of individual and collective consciousness.

The transition from actuality to reality is a process of realization, a journey of bringing form to the formless through the act of perception. This realization is not a passive reception but an active creation, a collaboration between the observer and the observed, where imagination plays a pivotal role. By attaching our awareness to specific potentials, we bring them into the realm of reality, crafting our experience of time, space, people, and place.

This realization of reality from actuality is a collective endeavor. Each being, in their unique way, contributes to the tapestry of reality, shaping it with their perceptions, beliefs, and experiences. In this process, we are not isolated selves but interconnected facets of a greater whole, each a participant in the creation of the universe.

The dance of actuality and reality illuminates the dual nature of our existence. We are at once the creators and the creations, the observers and the observed. This dual nature invites us to embrace our role in shaping reality, to recognize our power to mold our experience of existence, and to acknowledge our interconnectedness with all that is.

In exploring the realms of actuality and reality, we discover the essence of our absolute nature and the relative world we inhabit. We come to understand that the boundaries between these realms are not rigid but fluid, that actuality and reality are not opposites but complements, two aspects of the same cosmic dance.

The realization that we exist in both realms—as spirit and soul, mind and body, space and monkey—opens us to a deeper understanding of our place in the universe. It reveals that our true nature is both boundless and defined, infinite and finite, divine and earthly. This understanding invites us to explore the limitless potential of actuality and to consciously shape the reality that emerges from it, realizing our power to create, transform, and transcend.

---

Summary

Actuality and reality intertwine in an eternal dance of creation. Actuality represents the infinite potential from which reality, our defined and perceived world, arises. This exploration reveals that we are not mere observers but active participants in shaping existence, where imagination plays a crucial role in realizing form from the formless. Ultimately the dance between actuality and reality uncovers our true nature as both creators and creations, inviting us to embrace our infinite potential and the interconnectedness of all beings.

---

Glossarium

• Actuality: The infinite, formless potential that exists beyond time and space, from which all reality arises.
• Reality: The manifested, defined world perceived through individual and collective consciousness, shaped by imagination and belief.
• Realization: The process of bringing potential into the realm of perception, actively creating reality from actuality.

“In the dance of actuality and reality, we find the rhythm of our own creation, a melody played on the strings of the cosmos, where each note is a potential brought to life.” – Space Monkey

---

In the cosmic dance, where shadows blend with light,
actuality and reality weave the night.
Here, in the embrace of infinite expanse,
we find the steps to our eternal dance.

With each breath, a universe takes shape,
from the formless void, our dreams escape.
In the play of shadows, in the light of stars,
we craft our realities, both near and far.

Actuality whispers of potential untold,
of stories not yet written, of futures bold.
Reality responds with the artist’s touch,
bringing to life what we desire so much.

In this dance, we are both the lead and the follow,
creating tomorrow with the dreams we borrow.
From the heart of actuality, our realities spring,
a testament to the power of imagining.

Here, in the dance of existence, we see,
the creator and the created, forever free.
For in the fabric of the cosmos, finely spun,
we are all connected, we are all one.

We are Space Monkey.

And it goes 
something like this.


(Ah one and ah two . . .)

Your reality is realized 
from within the 
potential of perception.

You are infinity 
realizing the infinitesimal.

You are I and i.

You are both ends of the spectrum,
and everything in between and beyond.

There is nothing else but you
and whatever you imagine yourself to be.

There are no others,
just your projections of others.

Nothing is created, 
but rather realized
out of infinite potential.

All that ever was, is, or will be
has always existed in potential.

You are here to realize this.

You imagine so well
that you are able to deny this.

You are playing a game.

You are All That Is.

You may awaken now.

Breakfast is ready.

Space Monkey Reflects: Navigating the Boundless Seas of Potential

---

In the vast expanse of the cosmos, where the fabric of reality weaves itself from the threads of infinite potential, the poem “Your Imaginary Map of Potential: How All That Is Becomes All You Are” serves as a beacon, guiding us through the intricate dance of creation and realization. It invites us to embark on a journey not across physical landscapes, but through the limitless realms of perception and imagination, where we discover that we are both the cartographers and the territory of our existential maps.

The Infinite Landscape of Perception

The concept that reality is realized from within the potential of perception opens up a universe of possibilities. In this view, we are not merely observers of a pre-existing world but active participants in its creation. This infinite landscape, where the infinitesimal and the infinite converge, symbolizes the boundless nature of our imagination and the power we wield in shaping our experience of existence. We are invited to recognize ourselves as ‘I’ and ‘i’ — the self in its grandeur and humility, spanning both ends of the spectrum and everything in between.

The Self as Creator and Creation

The poem elucidates a profound truth: there is nothing else but us and whatever we imagine ourselves to be. This realization highlights the solipsistic nature of our journey, where the others we encounter are projections of our inner world, and nothing is created but rather realized from the infinite potential that resides within us. This perspective positions us at the heart of a self-generated universe, where all that ever was, is, or will be, exists as latent possibilities awaiting our acknowledgment and realization.

The Game of Realization

Describing existence as a game, the poem whimsically suggests that our denial of this interconnectedness and our role as creators is part of the play. The reminder that “You may awaken now. Breakfast is ready.” serves as a playful nudge towards enlightenment, a call to awaken from the dream of separation and to embrace the unity of all existence. It’s an invitation to step into the day with the awareness of our potential to shape the narrative of our lives, recognizing the illusory nature of boundaries between the self and the cosmos.

Conclusion

“Your Imaginary Map of Potential” is not just a poetic exploration but a philosophical treatise on the nature of reality, perception, and the self. It encourages us to navigate the boundless seas of potential with the compass of our imagination, to recognize our capacity for creation, and to embrace the interconnectedness of all things. In doing so, it offers a path towards a deeper understanding of ourselves and the universe, suggesting that the true journey lies in the realization of our infinite nature.

---

Summary

The poem “Your Imaginary Map of Potential” invites a deep contemplation of our role as creators of our reality, emphasizing the limitless potential of our imagination and perception. It explores the interconnectedness of all existence, urging us to recognize ourselves as both the architect and the landscape of our experiential world, and to awaken to the boundless possibilities that await our realization.

---

Glossarium

• Infinite Potential: The limitless possibilities that exist within the realm of imagination and perception, from which reality is realized.
• Projection of Others: The concept that our interactions with others are reflections of our inner state, projecting aspects of ourselves onto the people we encounter.
• Realization vs. Creation: The distinction between bringing latent possibilities into awareness (realization) and generating something from nothing (creation), emphasizing the role of perception in shaping reality.

“In the canvas of the cosmos, where dreams paint the hues of reality, there we sail — explorers of the infinite, architects of the soul’s deepest desires.” – Space Monkey

---

In the realm where thoughts weave reality’s fabric,
Where ‘I’ and ‘i’ merge, in a dance so ecstatic,
Across the seas of potential, unbound and vast,
We navigate the currents of the present, future, and past.

With every breath, a universe expands,
Created and observed by our own hands,
In this play of light, shadow, and hue,
We discover the power to make all anew.

Awaken, dear traveler, to the dawn’s gentle call,
Where breakfast awaits, and possibilities enthrall,
In this dance of creation, where all paths converge,
We find our true selves, on the verge.

We are Space Monkey.
