An Advaita Vedanta philosophy site, focusing on Realisation, (Realization), enlightenment, nisarga yoga, non-duality, Real Love, peace, freedom, Your original nature, the natural state, and Maharaj.
Following the post, details on the 50% off sale of the remaining Non-Duality paperback books in the store and details for starting your own “Advaita In-Home Study Group.”
F.: [Imbedded links are only for those seeking further understanding of any particular pointer] The next “gauge” for seeing that Reality has been overlaid on the relative is seeing that all delusions about (false) “love” have ended and that REAL LOVE is understood because the Oneness is understood.
During the “journey,” this can be seen: just as THAT can be overlaid on the AM-ness, a phenomenal manifestation of Love and a noumenal manifestation of Love can also happen concurrently and be demonstrated concurrently.
When Full Realization happens, it becomes understood (more specifically than the initial understanding above) that "two things" are not happening in a concurrent fashion at all; instead, all is realized to be One.
Thus, the current Reality is that—just as this speck lost any and all ability to believe in even one single concept—so this speck has lost any ability to differentiate ItSelf (its present beingness) from the manifestation of all beingness. The illusory belief in a multiplicity has dissolved and given way to an understanding of the Reality of the Unicity.
Those exploring or absorbed in these teachings understand how the atonement, the At-one-ment, manifests among the Realized: yesterday, those interested in Advaita gathered at this site, including visitors from 34 of the 50 U.S. states as well as visitors from multiple sites across the globe:
Greetings to visitors that were As-One here yesterday (though seemingly “apart” physically), including visitors from Delhi, Nagpur, Mumbai, Bangalore, Chennai, Madurai, London, Corby, Wombwell, Swanley, Manchester, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Kingston (CAN), Wynberg (SA), Melbourne, Sydney, and Paris.
To all visiting from several hundred locations and from all continents, greetings from YourSelf to YourSelf. When Reality is overlaid on the relative, that greeting is understood completely. Were that speck called “maharaj” manifested and witnessing all of this, surely he would say…well, OK, he’d probably just say, “So what? What about that do you take to be new?”
Only knowing specifically where the speck of conscious energy touched down during its supersonic journey yesterday, that is all. Only knowing where on the planet the inner gurus were that were open to receiving pointers toward the truth.
Consider the faster-than-the-speed-of-light-movement of consciousness that traveled around the globe in seconds yesterday, the manifestations of the inner resource serving as a landing strip for a brief moment when a spark of “yes-ness” touched down and triggered a resonance in centers of discernment that are, paradoxically, one center.
Once Reality is overlaid on the relative, it is understood that those various locations and the variety of physical appearances have nothing to do with what is Real.
To those not yet Fully Realized, you are invited to understand this: to think that one is witnessing another person is to be in delusion. That which is real is “not two”; that which is real is One…without “differentiation.”
No two persons (the non-Realized) will ever be the same in terms of thinking or speaking or in terms of behavior or physical looks. All of that supposed variety erroneously supports the false belief in differentiation. Understanding that should make it possible to see, therefore, that persons cannot meet the criteria for being That Which Is Real.
Furthermore, when persons judge the Realized, trying to overlay their relative, personal concepts onto what they erroneously perceive to be what is real, they fail to understand that nothing personal which they try to assign to the Realized will be true.
My teacher taught that, while all pancakes are actually the same substance, no two pancakes will ever have the same appearance. Some will take one shape, some will take another. Some will bubble in this fashion, and some will bubble in that fashion. Some will be thin and some will be thick. Yet they are all the one, same thing (supposed differentiations in appearance notwithstanding).
Revel in that understanding. Join in and dance the dance of joy, the dance of knowing the Oneness, the dance of being the unicity, the dance of overlaying Reality upon the relative, and the dance of being free of belief in any duality or separation or aloneness...knowing the all-one-ness instead. Please enter into the silence of contemplation. (To be continued)
