As part of my tantric studies I've recently started meditating on the nature of material reality, and I had the insight that material reality is largely the entanglement of various streams of Will and consciousness, vibrating at different frequencies and moving in different directions.
All things are at their core composed of Will and Consciousness, and that means the material universe is actually malleable to an unlimited degree...within specific limits.
For example, can someone convince a mountain to will itself to become an ocean? Well yes, but that doesn't mean a mountain can instantly become an ocean. The entanglements of its being dictate that it is a mountain and not an ocean, but after years of meditation and development of conscious movement of will, it could change into an ocean. Now it may take longer than the life span of the mountain to accomplish that level of ability, but it is in fact possible. It would then have to progress through every intermediate state between mountain and ocean, mastering the new movements of Will and the conflicts of Will that come with those new movements. It would take a tremendous amount of work, but it's definitely within the realm of possibility.
To be free of those entanglements entirely is to resolve all ones Karma, and at that point one is both the ocean and the mountain.
A meditation on Will and material change
This is a weird one.
