FROM A SITE VISITOR: The manifestation of consciousness results in "basic duality", without which I couldn't have write this mail.So the basic duality must exist in order to understand the unicity, meaning, only in the relative we can understand the significance of absolute from the absolute view point. Post manifestation, post "basic duality" there is no "one" to understand the absolute. Is my understanding right? Raja
(Continued from yesterday)
R.: only in the relative we can understand the significance of absolute from the absolute view point
F.: YES, to the degree that it is only while the consciousness is manifested and functioning as the Pure Witness that the Absolute can be known and understood. NO, as far as understanding “the significance of the Absolute.” There is no significance to the Absolute.
The earth’s sun is a source of energy, but does it have any significance? Only to those who take themselves to be significant individuals and only to those who believe that the happenings on this planet have, or have ever had, any significance (as opposed to being much ado about nothing).
Those same beliefs about significant individuals and significant happenings could lead a person to consider the Absolute “significant.” Other persons might consider the Absolute to be significant if they identify the Absolute with a physically-present “supreme being” or with a group of “supreme beings,” which it is not.
(Is it possible that some vestige of past religious training is behind that comment, causing you to equate erroneously the “Absolute” with some physical god or gods who supposedly play a “significant role” in the lives of humans?)
As for the expression “from the absolute view point,” if the reference is to (1) the clear view of the entire functioning of the totality that can be witnessed post-Realization and to (2) the clear view available during the period of manifestation while the re-purified (or unblocked) consciousness is abiding AS the Absolute, so it is.
However, if the term “from the absolute viewpoint” implies that there is something “in” the Absolute state that can view something or that there is someone “in” the Absolute state who could view something, then such a conclusion would not be the truth.

R.: Post manifestation, post "basic duality" there is no "one" to understand the absolute. Is my understanding right?
F.: NO & YES:
NO: Again, there is no basic duality.
YES: Post manifestation, there is no “one” to understand the Absolute. Peace and Light. Please enter the silence of contemplation.
