Being in itself (ourself) and as a Whole Is Before experiencing (duality, sensory perception, ego). And, knowing the Whole to be greater than the part, is not the Whole of you More than any image or concept of yourself? As Consciousness is greater than any content of consciousness, Mind greater than any projection, sensation of mind, Truth greater than any context of truth, Space greater than any object in and of space, the unified Field greater than any particle-wave in the field. The Totality of Being is without beginning or ending and thus is not outside of us--but wholly Within--Nonliteral, purely Spiritual. Such Is our innermost Being (God).

You are what you are when you. are. You follow your spirit without hesitation. Sometimes your spirit leads you to do things that are a complete mystery to you and that are sometimes traumatic for your emotional body. Your emotional body says, “Oh, Spirit, please don’t do this,” and you do it anyway. And then you look back in hindsight and you see that it has served, that it was an enactment of pictures of reality, that it was perfect, that it was done in a state of Grace. Maybe there was fear, pain, or anger, but it was exactly the Universe rearranging itself. And you were an instrument. You were moving with the pulse and the rhythm of the Universe as your spirit directed you to move. And you were wrapped in a cloak of infinity as you moved and you danced.
You are this thing for that person and that thing for this person, and none of them know you. They only know their projections because you symbolize something in their pictures of reality. You represent something to them but you are not a real something to them. You are their father, sister, or mother or you’re a ***** or a jerk, a saint or a goddess. But never are you just you until those beings are also perceiving transpersonally. When they are, they can love you because they see you are a divine essence that they have an appreciation for, and nothing else. Then you are seen, then you are known, then you are loved. Is this useful for you? *

Two kinds: empirical and metaphysical. Empirical existence is the existence of something "out there" which we can abstract to a symbol and discuss and reflect about -- such as, the existence of a park bench, or of Santa Claus, or of your judgment about whether Santa would be good if he were to leave coal in your stocking. Metaphysical existence is not really the same thing at all, or you might say it is "be-ing" itself. It is only direct experience and can't be abstracted or symbolized, or even really "thought about." In this sense, god or a soul may exist, but the word god or soul is only a language trick, a placeholder, a meta-metaphor that obliquely refers to something that can only ever be directly experienced or ... "been."
Sorry I haven't got the "field" lingo.

It is related to the field of ontology. That which can be known in some sense. presumably though 'being' is an active state, some kind of flux of something. In order to be "being" some sort of process needs to occur. Probably some kind of exchange of energy at least. The arrangement of or transfer of energy in particular ways would result in a process 'being'
