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 describing the way that humans have fallen into the supposedly-awake-but-asleep-state, moving through the relative existence while under the spell of their personality trance, a glimpse was provided of what the pre-personality existence was like for humanity.
Challenges happened. Sometimes humans overcame the challenges, and sometimes the challenges overcame them. Problems arose. Sometimes solutions were found, and sometimes they were not.
The existence had always been complicated enough as it was, challenging enough as it was, problematic enough as it was, without the additional hardship of trying to negotiate the relative existence while being sightless ... while being blindly driven by personality-based agendas and personality-based motivators that are even hidden from self ... while being torn between a personality-driven desire to be kind at times but a personality-driven desire to control-by-brutality at other times.
Yet that is exactly the case after personalities developed and, in the case just mentioned, when the Helper Two disintegrates to the Controller Eight. Note the way that personalities always manifest at first in tandem, generating diametrically-opposite, dualistic behavioral patterns that now ensure for the non-Realized masses an existence that is marked and marred by instability. Consider another possible scenario, for example:
Troublesome enough it is that the Type Four can waver between a desire for authenticity and a tendency to perceive things in the most unrealistic manner imaginable; add stress and then the Type Four will disintegrate to the histrionic, emotional intoxication that is typical of the Type Two.
Then watch the Four shift to the Type One when influenced by the egotism that accompanies the assumption of an ego-state as an identity; at that point, everyone will be judged, expected to be perfect, and found to be lacking. Being inflexible and dogmatic and critical will characterize the Four that shifts to the One.
If the Four was raised by a Type Eight parent, then the worst traits of the Type Eight can be internalized alongside the Four and the result is a Four that, at times, feels the pain of others and of self so much that guilt, shame, melancholia, self-absorption, depression and withdrawing manifest;
at other times though, if the internalized Eight is triggered, then no empathy for anyone will manifest; instead, there will be an inability to care at all; there will only be coldness and insensitivity and meanness and heartlessness that can reach sociopathic levels of cruelty.
And all of those possibilities will be guaranteed to manifest with a Four who has internalized an Eight, who will exhibit Eight traits when in arrogance, and who will disintegrate to the worst of a Type One or Type Two when stressed.
Tragic enough (relatively speaking) that persons living under the influence of a personality trance can be so predictable (without understanding at all why) when driven by even one personality type.
However, to appreciate the full impact of the way that the nine personality types generate fluctuation and unsteadiness and instability and unpredictability and volatility and emotional and / or feeling intoxication, consider the mathematical possibilities:
a. with every person showing at least some evidence of all nine types, and
b. with persons being driven most by their primary type, but
c. with all persons also being influenced by what is called their "wings" (the types on either side of their primary type, such as a 4 being influenced also by the 3 and the 5) and
d. with persons disintegrating to another type when stressed, and
e. with persons exhibiting the traits of various types that they internalized as children or have since adopted along the way,
then the mathematics involved show that
1. with 1 of 9 types able to appear in combination with each other in 2's or 3's or 4's, etc. and
2. with the variety of other combinations that are possible, then
you will find, if you do the math, that with 9 types potentially at play in a variety of combinations, the possible permutations come to ... 387,420,489.
Driven by personality, it is possible that 387,420,489 factors - personalities and combinations of personalities - will control a person's thoughts and words and deeds at any given time during the relative existence.
Again ...
... the existence had always been complicated enough as it was, challenging enough as it was, problematic enough as it was, without the additional hardship of trying to negotiate the relative existence while being sightless, while being blindly driven by personality-based agendas and personality-based motivators that are even hidden from self.
Is it any wonder that sages for thousands of years have invited protégés to abandon all personality identification? Accept one false identity - even one personality identification - as real and consider the consequences of trying to negotiate the relative existence under the influence of the resultant sleep-walking blindness that accompanies a person trying to function while in a personality trance.
Then imagine how complicated and challenging and problematic the existence will be when the possible permutations of nine personality types in combination with each other can number 387,420,489.
Yet, as with the physician who cannot treat your sickness in the absence of a proper diagnosis, so too the sickness of personality cannot be treated effectively without full awareness and understanding of the problem, without full awareness of what has unconsciously driven every thought and every word and every action since you were a child.
The inability to consciously choose thoughts and words and deeds can result in nothing other than a relative existence that is marked by instability and fluctuation. At the third of seven steps, personality must be understood, addressed, and abandoned if one is to complete the "journey" to freedom / independence and stability and peace and bliss.

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."
