Surrendering to the Ordinary

"I am the space, the canvas for life's exhibition,
Not relative to perception but the sovereign of awareness:
A lack in oneself, a reservoir of untapped energy."
Federico discusses the perception of ordinariness in life and challenges the notion that waking up leads to a realization of being ordinary. Instead, the speaker suggests that one can shift attention from external objects to the awareness of oneself as the container for all experiences, making the experience of being alive fundamentally different. The emphasis is on the awareness of perceptions rather than the objective qualities of objects.
He reflects on the joy and a kind of death in the awareness that perceptions die at the moment of being perceived.
But the one who is aware remains unchanged.
There is an exploration of the experiences of the body, with a focus on the awareness that transcends the body's perceptions, leading to a sense of freedom, lightness, and smoothness beyond the ordinary.
Federico also emphasizes the need for energy to attend to the unknown, with a focus on complete abstraction; within the realm of poetry; as a means of exploring perception and yearning for the pre-existing, absolute truth of ourself.
In the mundane: a plug, two cords entwined.
A revelation, touching in its inevitability.
Complete & final, like the self that witnesses.
