Birthday Sayings For Turning 12 Years Old




Where neither the third state (deep sleep) or the fourth state (samadhi) there,
Where everything is experienced as the Self alone,
Where there are no equity or inequity,
" Could slavery or freedom be living there? Dattatreya

Question: is clear that everything is consciousness and that consciousness is absolute the source. What is not so clear is why there always seems to add some positive qualities such as love, serenity, beauty, joy, God, ESO. How can it have qualities or characteristics when it is being itself?


Answer: must distinguish between being yourself and being self-conscious being. You could say that being it has no qualities, but this statement is still a limitation superimposed on the unlimited. Equally you could say, without being inconsistent with the above statement, knowing that being yourself is an experience that we could try to describe (and failing to do so) and absolute love, absolute intelligence, splendor absolute bliss, absolute freedom, eternity , divinity.

The reason why this distinction is important because "being self-conscious being" is not the only mode of being. There is also ignorance, which is "being not being self-conscious." From the point of view of being, if we use this expression, no such distinction, and that's what we try to clarify your question. However, at a lower level to the level where there are distinctions, this distinction is relevant. To avoid confusion we have to know at what level does affirmation. At the level of the Ultimate can not make any assertions, maybe just "I am" or "Being is" or "I am the One who is" so, with the words dissolve into the experience of being.

Now the question is that if we take the high road of non-duality, to the ultimate level, we can not simultaneously feel or believe that we are a separate entity with all the suffering attached to this belief, and affirming that everything is consciousness and that consciousness is absolute the source. We can not speak the truth without living the truth. Speak the truth and live the truth are two separate experiences, and what matters is living the truth. What is said from the experience of living the truth, no matter how dualistic, or sometimes even children can Apparently, it's true. What is said in ignorance, however logical it may seem, is false.

With affection,
