An Advaita forum focusing on Realisation, enlightenment, non-duality, Real Love, peace, freedom, Your original nature, abiding naturally, the Oneness, the Nothingness, and Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj.

As for Maharaj, you will find here some of his early pointers for beginners but some of his later pointers that are for seekers father along the "path." During his last years, he said of I AM THAT: "That book and whatever was expounded at that time was only relevant for that period. I am speaking differently today" and am "emphasizing different aspects." What he offered later differed considerably from his earlier talks, making clear that the pointers in I AM THAT will take you to the midpoint of "the race" but that his final talks point the way to "the finish line."

F.: In addition to the fairly new technologies labeled "augmented reality" and "mediated reality," there is "virtual reality" (which is said to "replace the real world with a simulated one").

Advaitins see evidence of that manifesting daily among the non-Realized, and in extreme cases, so do mental-healthcare professionals; cases of personality disorders, neuroses, psychoses, and clinical insanity are all on the rise as more and more people are becoming farther and farther removed from reality.

Consider some relative existence examples:

1.
How many who were certain that they have finally found "Mr. or Miss Right" eventually realize that their "Dream Man" or "Dream Woman" is really a nightmare personified? It is quite the shocker when virtual reality meets reality.

2.
How many religious persons who appear to be so godly are anything but, as pointed out by Gandhi?

“I like your Christ; I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ"

and

“Those who say religion has nothing to do with politics do not know what religion is"

and

“The most heinous and the most cruel crimes of which history has record have been committed under the cover of religion or equally noble motives.”

3.
REAL LOVE vs. "love"

A SIDE NOTE BEFORE DISCUSSING REAL LOVE vs. PHONY "love": The "journey" to Realization and Authenticity began here at an early age when "floyd" was forced to attend weekly "Sunday School classes" in a "Judaeo-Christian" church (an interesting duality in itself). Ironically, those self-proclaimed "Christians" taught more stories from the longer, Jewish Old Testament section of their supposedly "holy text" than from the shorter New Testament section.

Being a Type Four (the type that almost always has a fully-developed BS detector by the age of six), questions such as these were raised:

"If there was only Adam and Eve and Cain and Abel, and if Cain killed Abel, then that left Adam and Eve and Cain, so who did Cain make babies with to make all the people on the planet? It would have to be his mother Eve, right?"

and

After hearing about the great flood and God killing everyone on the planet except for the members of one family, it was asked, "If we are supposed to hate Hitler for killing a lot of people, how come we are supposed to love God after he killed almost everybody?"

and

"If God loves me unconditionally, how come He is willing to send me to Hell?" (a place the church leaders had made clear was almost certain to be the final destination of my then-already-determined flight plan).

Regularly, my father was summoned to come to the classroom and whip me with his belt for disturbing the class, and with his buying into the scriptural warning that "if you spare the rod, you'll spoil the child," he willingly and vigorously complied with their requests.

The result was a movement into isolation where I could ignore them and their delusional teachings, moving away whenever I could in the same way that most people always do when they feel uncomfortable in the presence of any insane person who is getting in their face and babbling nonsense.

Yet the rebellious teenage years brought back the return of the seeker of Authenticity, unfortunately accompanied by an argumentative tendency to point out to persons their distorted beliefs and concepts, even though there was no invitation from them for me to do so. [Now, seekers have to find and contact this site. There is no effort to find them.]

That set the stage for years of conflict, butting heads with the insanity of a culture which felt totally alien and which convinced "floyd" that he did not belong on this planet. (Teens often speak of suicide as a means of escape, verifying the fact that it usually takes 13 to 16 years for societies to drive their youth damn-near crazy with their culture's endless stream of insane and inane BS.)

Eventually, both (a) withdrawal from the conflict as well as (b) literal and mental isolation marked the years right up until Realization came. After that, the non-duality teachings began to be discussed with the few that were interested.

That began in the summer of 1989, meaning that this has been happening for twenty-two years this coming summer (or "this coming winter" for those in the southern hemisphere). What does that preface have to do with the discussion of false, phony "love" vs. Real Love? This:

97% of the people on the planet report that they are affiliated with one organized religion or another. Nothing on the planet has dreamed up more lies, myths and distortions than the religions of "the world," save in one other instance;

nothing has developed a more extensive, more well thought-out, or more effective network for the distribution of falsehoods than the religions of the planet, save in one other instance; therefore, religious beliefs are the number two source of inspiring persons to live in a "world" of virtual reality which has "replaced the real world with a simulated one."

While many among the devout and the faithful mostly give lip service to their dogma, the number one priority for persons in the age range spanning from the mid to late teens and then throughout adulthood is the totally dualistic concept of "relationships," almost all of which operate for the most part on nothing deeper than a Subject-Object level.

In the process, persons become objectified as they are assigned or adopt "relationship" roles, typically cycling through the playing of a series of false "relationship" roles time and again, endlessly moving along the gamut discussed by Maharaj, shifting their adopted identities from ...

stranger to acquaintance to friend to sex partner / lover to fiancé / fiancée to spouse to super spouse to enemy to mortal enemy to ex-spouse, after which another cycle will usually begin with a new partner plugged into that continuum of players and the next round of role-playing and game-playing.

What has been seen in twenty-two years of dealing closely with thousands of persons is that there is tremendous resistance to seeing that their beliefs are false and to abandoning their concepts and ideas;

yet what has also been seen is that nothing compares with the resistance among persons to (1) admitting how deceptive and self-deceptive are their beliefs regarding the true state and nature of their "relationships" and resistance to (2) admitting that their beliefs about "love" are their number one source of deception.

And while many attend church one day a week, they are embroiled in their "relationships" and "relationships issues" 24/7, so, again, religion has become the number two source of delusion while beliefs about "love" and the actual state of their relationships has become the number one source of distortion among persons.

Therefore, the discussions here that differentiate between the false "love" that most are practicing and the Real Love that is rooted in knowing the Oneness are usually met with total denial or by simply ignoring the discussions completely.

The discussions are also usually met with a refusal to "go there" ... with a refusal to even consider the level of inauthenticity that is truly involved ... much less take any action around the fact that they are living a lie and might want to consider finding Real Love rather than compromising, rather than settling for what they are settling for.

That is why, at this point, the suggestion is offered that seekers might want to buckle their seat belts because some of the upcoming considerations will be as alien as people with "the third eye" and will be about as appreciated as an audit by governmental tax collectors.

REAL LOVE vs. false "love"

The typical groupthink that exists worldwide will block the understanding of pointers that attempt to differentiate Real Love - which is rooted in an unabridged sense of Oneness - from the "false love" that persons believe is real. So why is "love" preferred?

REAL LOVE brings nothing that is relative and takes nothing that is relative (though its awareness of Oneness is expressed in the relative act of sex when Reality is overlaid on the relative). False "love," on the other hand, is used to address personality-based fears and desires and is, therefore, only about giving relative things and taking relative things.

Thus, REAL LOVE is Self-full but self-less; false "love" is totally selfish and self-ish, totally separated from Self. False "love" will, in fact, guarantee that you will become separated from Your True Self, will guarantee that you will lose YourSelf completely.

That is why the discussion of "love" vs. Real Love has been so vigorously resisted over the decades by persons defending whatever version of "love" they think they have, resisted even more than the discussions regarding their false dogma or other false beliefs. They want their fears and desires to be addressed, right now, and if false "love" is what can most immediately address those fears and desires, so it is. Bring it on, and keep it up.

Most shut down and tune out completely when confronted with the fact that they have nothing close to Real Love, that they are playing a self-ish game, that they are using and being used. The usual reaction to being invited to consider that?

End of discussion. Total shut down. Total tune out. Yet some few finally move beyond denial and admit that - for the sake of the relative "benefits" of "love" - they have either given away or been robbed of their very essence (the various types of essence to be discussed thoroughly on Friday).

Yet those tuning out have no awareness at all of the hundreds upon hundreds of people who have come here and bemoaned the shallow, even hollow, relationships that they have been in for years before suddenly realizing that the very life-force has been sucked out of them ... or forfeited by them for gain.

They have no notion at all about how many have come here and complained that their present existence has been seen - finally, after years of denial - to be a contributing factor to what has become a draining, death-in-life existence. For the courageous that are willing to continue, however, please consider:

There are about 10,000 marriages per day worldwide, and liaisons arranged each day are many times that number. (The number of divorces per day varies between 5000 and 6000).

According to one survey, most of those marriages and liaisons nowadays amount to nothing more than a buy-sell agreement, just as in olden days when marriages were arranged to solidify political alliances and when considerable sums of money changed hands alongside the vows. Is that an opinion, or can that be confirmed?

In the book "Casting Light on the Dark Side of Relationships", the results of a poll of several thousand newlywed women and men were shared. The newly-marrieds were questioned about their reasons for marrying and their responses reveal - they did not marry for Love.

If you want to know why men and women really marry, according to that survey and others, the top five reasons given by the men showed that they married because

#1: “They were tired of the singles scene”;

#2: “They wanted sex on a regular basis” (as if);

#3: “They hated being alone”;

#4: “They were getting older and wanted to have children while still young enough to raise them”; and

#5: “They wanted a life-long companion.”

TOMORROW: Why women said they married and the conclusion to the series

The Twice-Stolen Necklace Murders offers the non-duality message by way of a mystery-adventure novel, discussing the movement from pain to healing to awakening to peace.
From Dr. R.F. Maley, Ph.D, Professor Emeritus and former Head of the Department of Psychology, University of Houston: "Floyd Henderson's book, The Twice-Stolen Necklace Murders, is a fun read and an interesting mystery, but perhaps more importantly it serves as a vehicle for blending Eastern Philosophy and Native American Spirituality to make an intellectually challenging novel. The book's insights into both relationships and authoritarian conditioning of people in our society make it a must read, tracing the roots of narcissistic, sociopathic and psychopathic behaviors to the very core of the culture. This truly witty and politically-incorrect study of the aggressive nature of 'the American character' offers not only a diagnosis but also a treatment plan, making the book an excellent supplemental reading in courses such as psychology, anthropology, philosophy, sociology and counseling."

Five Free eBooks

Compliments of Andy Gugar, Jr.,
the following eBooks are available without charge for you or for friends:

I.
"GOOD vs. EVIL?" or "IGNORANCE, STUPIDITY, and INSANITY?"

The content of this eBook deals with one of the most common but erroneous beliefs that the non-Realized masses cling to and which they will fight about (and even kill over), namely, that there is a planet-wide duel going on between “the forces of good and evil” in the universe.

Either (1) the ancient view is spot on: that the "ills of the planet" are rooted in evil people, in people not being religious enough or spiritual enough, and are caused solely by bad morality; or, (2) the "ills of the planet" are rooted in ignorance, stupidity and insanity and "being good" or "being moral" does not put an end to ignorance, does not eliminate stupidity, and does not treat insanity in any way.

II.
"THE VISION"

Comments regarding the free eBook entitled “THE VISION”:

“My thanks to you and Andy.” – Andrew “Mac” McMaster

“Thanks so much for the book! And, by the way, it is brilliant and the most effective pointing that you have done. It has served to help clear the remaining blockages.” – Stan Cross

“Greatly appreciate having “THE VISION” added to my Henderson resource library that is situated on the right side of my bed for easy access! Eternally grateful for what was received and what was given.” – Robert Rigby

“‘THE VISION’ is such a well-written, condensed version of the Nisarga Yoga approach to understanding and enjoying Reality that I feel it can serve as a must-read ‘meditation guide’ for all earnest seekers.” – Andy Gugar, Jr.

III.
"Sapolsky, Maharaj, and the Non-Dual Teachings"

Dr. Robert Maurice Sapolsky is an American neuroendocrinologist; a professor of biology, neuroscience, and neurosurgery at Stanford University; a researcher; an author; and a Research Associate at the National Museums of Kenya.

There is much that a non-dualist or Advaitin or Nisargan can relate to by comparing and contrasting what Sapolsky reveals about the way certain troops of baboons live in Africa with the way that humans abide all around the globe.

This 152-page eBook catalogues the common, non-dual message shared by Sapolsky and Maharaj and reveals the ways that Sapolsky’s scientific research supports the non-dual pointers offered by Maharaj.

IV.
Seeking

In “PART ONE” it will be seen that most persons on the planet are not seeking, and most will never seek, but for those who are seeking, most will face several obstacles:

In “PART TWO” of this book, it will be seen why many criticized Maharaj for “changing his message in his later talks.” It will be seen that the changes were not about changing the message per se as much as about changing his methodology as he experimented with one version of the Ultimate Medicine after another in order to try to find an effective means for addressing the Ultimate Sickness.

He tried a religious version of the Medicine, a Spiritual version of the Medicine, and finally settled on a version which addressed to Sickness at its core . . . at the mental and emotional level.

V.
"THE MOST DANGEROUS BELIEF OF ALL"

“Dangerous” is a term that can only apply during the relative existence, but of those who do commit suicide, for example, how many shoot themselves in the foot over and over until they “bleed out”? None. They shoot themselves in the head. Why? In order to try to stop the noise - to try to stop the chatter of a thousand monkeys – to stop the noisy mind which is the area that stores the ideas, notions, concepts, mind-stuff, etc. which drives them into the depths of insanity.

And what are those ideas, notions, concepts, etc. called, collectively? "Their beliefs." The irony? They are not their beliefs at all. They are the beliefs of “others” that were set in place via programming, conditioning, etc. and which persons then think are their own.

And what are those beliefs rooted in, and what reinforces those beliefs and convinces persons that they are sacred and worth fighting over and even sometimes worth dying for? Blind faith.

This 337-page eBook discusses those issues in detail.
