normal life is a life led in imprefection, and not knowing why there is an imperfection. It is also not caring to find the why of imperfection, therefore leading an ignorant life. A life that hankers towards perfection without knowing that imperfection is part of the whole, part of the complete picture, is a normal life. A supernormal life, then is knowing the complet picture, knowing that you dont matter in the larger order of things, every moment, and remaining equanimous about it.
An abnormal life is knowing that your next breath is only a matter of hope, knowing the fragility of life, knowing that you simply cannot know if you will take your next breath, and therefore agitating between hope and despair unable to accept this fact. An abnormal life is a life that completely relates everything to oneself, not knowing that it is ignorance that is important to live the complete picture.
Shuffling between the normal and the abnormal life is what each one of us goes through at various stages of our lives, it is still a form of cycle, and there is simply no release, no escape from this because the duality in life is a balance of life. Ofcourse the true nature of man is non dual, otherwise, there would have been no duality. very simply put, non-duality is a dual of duality, and is the true nature of the over-balanced life, a life that is not disturbed by anything.
The non dual life is a life that treats itself without priorities, without the hundreds of perceptions, without decisions, without , well, brainfart reality. It is a life that is calm and a life that lives completely in the present. It is fearless, in knowing well that whatever perception is, it is all a form of conditioning.
