Apologies for my directness, if you find such not pleasing.

For me, your posts have always had a Theosophy Society flavor -- I
presume thats your path of integrating your past studies and models
with presentness. Experientially, I have always found the Theosopy
flavor of their books and your posts to be detailed spider webs --
along the lines of  "stories our Wholeness and our particles have been
telling us/themselves" that prolong the estrangment from "This is what
we have always been, and what we always will be". 

And "paticles within Brahman",  and one being the Brahman for others
or particles -- such notions bespeak a quite different, and IMO,
limited Brahman. 

The thing is, IT IS. In my experience, there is no "some of IT", or
partial Brahmans as background for someones partial awareness --
unless the experience and/or imagination of IT is in some quite
limited ways.

I know "Self" -- or in this case "ourSelf", are words english
translators  use for what sanskrit texts (hardly the only ones that
dwell on such) term Atman and Brahman. But "Self" has always seemed 
"bogus" or foreign from the experience. IT IS, and has nothing to do
with individuality which is a mirage. Or an individuality owning
Brahman. The individuality never becomes Brahman, an individuality
never becomes enlightened, IT IS.

And who is the "we" (kimosobe? :)) and why did this "finding" come
"first" ? :)

"your brahaman" -- if an individuality is claiming Brahman, that is a
different IT than has "proclaimed ITself" Here and NOW.

"That" particle is as Whole as This particle. The rock is as whole as
the see-er of the rock. IT IS.
