Taken into becoming vs. Taken into the void/silence.
(The very act of excessive talking is the subtle holding on to what is receding.)
Identity progression vs. Identity recession.
Both show similar attachment, focus, interest, and investment.
One is doing it to build on the interest,
The other is doing it as a cherishing/fruition/completion point of his interests.
Both look kind of similar on the outside.
***
We all come with nothing, and go with nothing.
Only whatever is gained in-between can be lost.
The identity/personality/interests are gained,
And then the identity/personality/interests are dissolved back into silence.
It is like electromagnets.
The subtle-body/soul itself is like an electromagnetic form.
They can increase the magnetic force causing greater accumulation,
Or reduce the magnetic force causing dropping of accumulation.
All interests/becoming/identity-building work on magnetism.
The magnets strengthening the power, or dropping its power.
***
Once the soul/subtle body turns inward,
It withdraws its magnetics, and causes the drop off in the outer world (vyaya bhava).
Like the 3 zodiac signs characteristics:
cardinal = growth, fixed = maintenance, mutable = dissolution.
***
The whole identity is actually built off the ground of these magnetics.
It is like the seed and the soil.
The soil is what powers up the seed to sprout, tree, and flower.
Returning to the soil, is like returning to the source.
