Indra’s Net

Kevin Moss dreamed of this image, or something close to it and asked what it might mean. I told him it looked like Indra’s Net. He’d never heard of it and was amazed by what he found out about it, since he very interested in the interconnections among people, as he’d written about here.

“Internet…Intranet…Indra’s Net. What a coincidence?!” he commented.

We’ve written about Indra’s Net in the past, but combined with Kevin’s dream image, it seemed worthwhile to bring it up again. Here’s a quote that nicely illuminates the net.

“The Net of Indra is a profound and subtle metaphor for the structure of reality. Imagine a vast net; at each crossing point there is a jewel; each jewel is perfectly clear and reflects all the other jewels in the net, the way two mirrors placed opposite each other will reflect an image ad infinitum. The jewel in this metaphor stands for an individual being, or an individual consciousness, or a cell or an atom. Every jewel is intimately connected with all other jewels in the universe, and a change in one jewel means a change, however slight, in every other jewel.”

–Stephen Mitchell, The Enlightened Mind

    In our everyday lives, everything typically seems based on cause and effect. But every once in a while we get a glimpse of the deeper interpenetrating reality — Indra’s Net–through the recognition of synchronicity. Even people who don’t think about synchronicity are experiencing them. They simply dismiss those experiences as mere coincidence or notice them at all. My suspicion is that we all are experiencing far more synchros than we realize.

  2. The concept of interpenetration and how we are all intimately connected answers many questions. Internet…Intranet…Indra’s Net – like that, a good example!
