Synopsis
Yakshas are ancient spirits, inhabitants of the trees. For centuries they whispered to our deafness the right way: the philosophy of living that is an understanding of the Whole and feeling part of It, accepting It. The longing for the sense of Immense pushes beyond the Gates. Then one transcends and comprehends: the Infinite contained in the One as the Forest in the Seed. Imperfection closely. Apparent perfection from afar. Short cirtcuit of reason. To not tend to the absolute is the condemnation to relativity.
Any gearwheel which rebels to their mechanism opens the doors to the nothing. And so we entrust our egocentric memory's survival to a land that we are dissolving.
Result If you look closely at a tree, you'll miss the view of an entire forest. Passable distraction, if you think that one day, observing a tree, you could see the last forest.
We are already immense, we need to understand this: the paradox is trying to become something that we are already, at the expense of what allows us to live: the planet.
Arrogance is self cannibalistic.
