Reflection of fury

Mark watched as the energy of his sending waned and in the fading of it he saw what he had perceived as demons resolve into fires very like his own before all again became darkness and emptiness. He had not expected there to be anything at all beyond his fires light but even less had he imagined there would be other fires. His intent was only to expel from himself the pent frustration he held over from his recent foray to the outside. Thinking to be cleansed and calmed in the spending he had not even been truly angered or fixed on the expulsion of any particular thought. And now this revelation of others beyond his own set into him a worry over what he had sent. Were these others as like to his own fire, were they lives, were they the life fires of others living, and in this realm, his realm? And if so how had they been affected by his unfocused lashing of hideous and dark vitriol.
Mark: Can there be no expression without consequence, even here where I come alone and none may follow?
Tavan: Always in the all there is result, even actions are but reactions, be they mental or phenomenal. You know this.
Mark: What are they out there, did I harm them with the sending from the staff?
Tavan: They represent the lives of the real, but they are here where none may follow and so they are mirrors. They reflect your sending and react as you, as if you were receiving it. Do you still believe your sending went outward? Was it even rage or just a compounding of emotion now stored as a gift to wake you in the night?
Mark: They represent, so they are not the real themselves but an extension of myself?
Tavan: The illusion of separation is by you believed to be an illusion, this is reflected in the reflection of fury ignited around the life fires which are there beyond sight even here where you come alone.
Mark: Then I have done no harm here with this?
Tavan: You have harmed no other but perhaps you have prepared a future in which you will find yourself harmed. Did you not seize upon guilt in the light of awareness? Having now let it go do you expect it to land outside? Sit and think nothing, hold your hands together so they may grasp nothing. Bask in the heat of the fire while I find something for you to take from this that you may keep with you. And realise you are blessed to hear my voice in this place where you come alone and none may follow.
Mark: Is that some kind of gnostic teaching your trying to imprint on me?
Tavan: Is what some kind of gnostic teaching?
Mark: You keep saying "this place where you come alone and none may follow"
Tavan: You said it first, I thought is sounded appropriate, its a good way to describe this realm because its true. Now try to think nothing, or watch the thoughts arise without being attached to them. Go back to the world, there is pleasure there for you if you stop blocking it with your anguish over your mistakes. You will continue to make mistakes, you are not Iccas yet and yet you will always be connected to this fire. This fire is Iccas and it will ever be the source of who you are and who you become. Let me do the talking for a time and listen well to all that I give to you.
