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 early June, this four-book paperback anthology,
Some prefer a paperback in hand rather than reading books on a computer or an e-reader. Because of the generosity of Andrew Gugar, Jr., who wants to make this message available to those people, all four books in the Advanced Seekers' Series are being offered in this one volume for $19.95 + S&H rather than the usual price of $39.95 for a 352-page anthology.
6. BY ARRANGING for floyd to travel to your location and meet with you or your group. Use the contact link above to discuss details.
which is available for pre-ordering now, will ship. (You may click the picture for more details.) In anticipation, certain excerpts from the four books in the paperback collection will be offered.
The following is from the book CONSCIOUSNESS / AWARENESS: The Nature of Reality Beyond Self-Realization (Peace Every Day When Abiding as The Absolute) which is included in the anthology:
The reader is invited to take into contemplation and consideration the following pointers on “Consciousness” and on “Awareness” that were offered by Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj (with some commentaries added). The contemplation can provide stimuli for considering far more about Consciousness and Awareness than most will ever consider:
“Understand then, that it is this conscious presence that you are, so long as the body is there. Once your body is gone, along with the vital breath, consciousness also will leave. Only that which was prior to the appearance of this body-cum-consciousness, the Absolute, the ever-present, is your true identity. That is what we all really are. That is reality. It is here and now. Where is the question of anyone reaching for it?”
Maharaj made clear that, if the Understanding comes, no “person” will remain who could try to meddle in the play of consciousness. He also affirmed that there is no omniscient creator that is meddling in the play. All is merely happening spontaneously.
Maharaj was asked, “Where does consciousness come from?” He answered, “It never comes or goes; it just appears to have come.”
He was also asked, “Where is the seat of consciousness.” He replied, “In every particle of the juice of the body.”
“I told the consciousness, ‘It is you who is suffering, not I’.”
“Awareness is not aware of its awareness.”
Maharaj explained that That Which He Truly Is was prior to consciousness. He made clear that there is no “he” to experience anything or do anything and that what persons take to be an experience is actually just the consciousness experiencing itself.
He explained that the Realized understand that the “world,” indeed the entire “universe,” exists in Consciousness alone. Neither “the world” nor “the universe” is real, and both only seem to appear in Consciousness. Knowing that, he was able to take his stand in the Absolute. In the Absolute, no Consciousness of the “I-Amness” or the “Beingness” or the “Is-ness” happens. In the Absolute, there are neither thoughts nor words nor deeds. The Absolute is prior to all of that…is prior to Consciousness.
[NOTE: In his later teachings, he made clear that "where" he finally took his "stand" was even prior to the Absolute. That is explained in the last books in this anthology.]
Among the non-Realized, the consciousness has become identified with the space or form. A few move beyond body identification. Fewer still reach an understanding of what lies beyond the body-mind-personality identities. Even fewer will come to know “the source” that is beyond all acculturation, programming, and conditioning of the consciousness.
“I am really not manifested. Can you live like that, as the non-manifest?”
Now transcendence of the consciousness has also occurred. With the appearance of consciousness, the Absolute knows it is, ‘I Am.’
Even this primary concept, "I-am-ness," is dishonest, just because it is still only a concept. Finally, one has to transcend that also and be in the nirvikalpa state, which means the concept-free state. Then you have no concept at all, not even of "I am." In that state one does not know that one is.
Full Realization, contrary to Self-Realization, is the same as Total Enlightenment, that is, understanding that You Are the Light. Not only does abidance then happen beyond the “I am” but it also happens beyond the “I.”
All is matter or energy. Neither was created. Neither can be destroyed. Thus, Consciousness was not created by anyone, nor was it created by any “Supreme One.”
Just as a mirage is a phenomenal manifestation that can be witnessed by the naked eye, that which it appears to be can vary from one witness to the next. The identification of what a mirage is remains open to interpretation, depending upon the imaginings of the observer of the image. In the end, though, it really is just an image. The same happens when consciousness is perceived by the naked eye and is imagined to be something that it is not, such as “I am this body.”
Does the body / space / form play a role in the manifestation process? Of course, but with no more significance than the space or form known as “a plant” plays a role in the manifestation process. Thus Maharaj’s point that “the seat of consciousness is in every particle of the juice of the body.” The body can be perceived, just as a mirage can be seen, but that does not mean that either is what it is perceived to be. Both are frauds, images only.
Thus, while seekers at one level can be told that “Consciousness is all there is,” at this higher level, another understanding is presented: that which is perceived is not That Which is Real, and even That Which is perceiving is not the Real, either. Maharaj explained that the Realized understand that the “world,” indeed the entire “universe,” exists in Consciousness alone;
but since that which persons take to be “this world” or “the universe” is not the reality that it is taken to be via consciousness, then consciousness is the perpetrator of myths as well. If “the world” that the “I Am” takes to be its “place of existence” is a lie, then the “I am” is also a lie.
Since neither “the world” nor “the universe” is real, both only seem to appear in Consciousness. Knowing that, the Realized take their stand in the Absolute. In the Absolute, no Consciousness of the “I-Amness” or the “Beingness” or the “Is-ness” happens. In the Absolute, there are neither thoughts nor words nor deeds. The Absolute is prior to all of that … is prior to Consciousness.
Please enter the silence of contemplation. (To be continued)

An Overview of Consciousness / Awareness
All is matter or energy. Neither was created. Neither can be destroyed. Thus, Consciousness was not created by anyone, nor was it created by any “Supreme One.”
Just as a mirage is a phenomenal manifestation that can be witnessed by the naked eye, that which it appears to be can vary from one witness to the next.

3. BY ENROLLING in the Online Advaita Classes
Received 19 August 2010 from one that just completed the entire course:

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."
