I Am Mind and Matter

I am a mind and a body of matter.
Mind arises through body; body is shaped by mind.
I feel the world as matter, and know it as mind.
In me, they meet—
Not as opposites, but as one unfolding.
I do not live in a world of matter,
Nor inside a mind alone.
I live where the two converge:
One experience, where I emerge.

The greater whole of my mind and my body is my experience.
Experience is not within either one alone,
But in the translation between them.
There is a movement:
From the physical to the mental,
From sensation to meaning,
From matter to mind.

This translation is not a copy—
It is a convergence.
What the body feels, the mind interprets.
What the mind imagines, the body enacts.
Experience is the wholeness formed in this flow—
Where matter becomes meaning,
And meaning becomes matter.

The greater whole of my experience is this shared existence.
Presence is how I experience it—now, alive, unfolding.
Perception is how I mind it—shaping meaning, weaving thought.
Participation is how I body it—acting, sensing, expressing.

Through presence, I am in the world.
Through perception, I know the world.
Through participation, I move with the world.

These are not separate acts,
But one movement of wholeness:
To be, to know, to do—
Together, in resonance
With all that is becoming.

Mind and matter are not two things,
But one flow, one resonance, one becoming.
To live is to translate,
To converge,
To emerge anew.
