R: Yes, "I" am! :-) J:What do you mean by devata- > particles, and why do you equate that to the physiology? What do > they look like? They may appear as "point-selves" -- localizations or collapsings of All-that-IS into intense bliss-points or I-selves -- which upon closer look may resolve into specific classical devata-forms, angel- forms, god-forms, demon-forms, whatever. They are each and all upon heart-embrace nothing other than Us. We are continually creating them, sustaining them, and reabsorbing them. I equate them to the physiology because that is what they are -- the intermediaries through which consciousness (Rishi) creates creation (Chandas). Upon closer look and fuller heart-embrace, there is nothing other than Us... Your glass-houses analogy is a good one, for as the intellect clarifies and clarifies, it gradually melts into translucence and transparency, becomes more and more glass-like, more and more heart- filled, surrenders its I-thou distinctions more and more, until as always has ever been, only our Self remains :-) Anything we see "out there" is a projection of our consciousness through our physiology; as these devata-particles clarify, the "out there" must of necessity also clarify. The world is as we are, and our devata-particles are those portions of Ourself which both separate Us from the world, and reunite Us All... A rough analogy would be our consciousness as the projector-light, the devatas as the film, and the "out there" as the movie-screen. However, in actuality, paying attention to the light interacting with the film actually clarifies the film so that it and the screen are also seen to be nothing but light, and actually not even that -- nothing but Us, the Unqualified, emptiful, pure potential to BE :-)
