The Searcher

Summary

The Searcher journeys through darkness in pursuit of love, unity, and cosmic truth—seeking a companion to complete his soul at luciditybooks.

The searcher combs the darkness in search of a congenial companion who will meet his physical and emotional needs. His search for this ideal companion takes him into a realm of conscious awareness. This realm is as consuming as the darkness that he feels.

Time is a perception that is relevant to the perceiver. It has a fluid point of reference. This reference obtains a tangible stability for the fleeting.

In the darkness the searcher conceives a time of emotional fulfillment as being the answer to his feelings of incompleteness. He makes time an ally of his search by forging them into a singular purpose. The purpose being a corporate alignment with the essence of understanding, appreciation, and harmony.

In the darkness there are no shadows that the searcher must contend with in his quest for unity. The darkness is its own light of comprehension revealing the ultimate nature of his desires and being.

In the darkness, the searcher is controlled by instincts. These instincts persuade him to be discerning and cautious. His ally of time tells him that the periodical interval in which he moves is called Now.

The mind of the searcher is extended like probing hands. It seeks to touch substance in the form of an amiable companion. This companion will reciprocate in his wish to be whole.

The deadest beast is the beast that fancies itself to be civilized. This form of beast excuses every act of atrocity. It uses its self-delusion of being the pinnacle of a higher culture. This form of beast falls apart. When it looks at itself with a critical eye, it exposes its true nature.

Alerted by a knock at the door the true to form lights a candle. The light transmitted by the candle can’t penetrate the darkness. The darkness has authority over the light and over matter. The cedar tree grows strong and brave only to be consumed by a camper’s unattended fire.

The searcher finds no rest from his quest in the light. A pencil will not take notes without guidance. Similarly, the vision of the searcher is obscured by the light. It diminishes his powers of mental discernment. It leaves him prey to only the visual.

The cloak is fashioned to fit only one particular person. This individual is the one whom the searcher is diligently looking for. They seek this person to fill the voids of their life. They do not know this person by face or name. The knowledge is nonetheless there. This remains true even in the absence of a dimension in time called Their Actual Meeting.

In the darkness the garments are spotless, and the enticement of a fashion trend is meaningless. The searcher is well aware of these properties of darkness. They are more than willing to accept them as some of the consequences of obscurity.

Somewhere within the darkness there resides a perfect companion for the searcher. This companion is seamless and flawless. They have an unadulterated understanding of the cosmos and the nature of reality.

The pursuit of the searcher is not in vain. It is not like groping and rummaging in the light that exposes blemishes and skin tags. The wages of a kiss are dry chapped lips that can only be repaired by another kiss surrounded by moisture.

In the darkness a congenial companion is also searching for that certain one who will finish her. Two points of attraction have hands outstretched. They long to touch and be touched by a sought-after romance. This romance will fill the darkness with sprinkles of light. The uninformed call these sprinkles galaxies and stars.
