You could say the same of Jesus, Gautama, and others. But there were differences... in appearance, garb, language, habits, etc., etc... universal mind expresses on the lower planes through some vehicle, a Galilean carpenter, a prince of the Sakyas, etc. Where is the "universal mind" not expressing itself? Where are the so-called "lower planes" located -- somewhere outside of the "universal mind"? Why call it "universal mind" -- to contrast it with non-universal mind? From whence would such a nonuniversal (separable) mind arise? From somewhere outside of the "universal mind"? Why call it "mind"? Is there some kind of objective reality, like a body, that arises apart from this "mind"? Thus, it's truly " " -- (no real separation has ever occurred) If the realized " " is going to have no personality elements left at all, then he will not be able to speak as a human being... he will not be incarnate. Who is supposed to realize " " ? Who exists apart from " " who could realize it? How will " " speak through a human being. To whom will " " speak? What is there for " " to communicate? Regarding "personality elements" from whence could these arise, except from " " ? If gone, where could they go, except back to " "? And while they seem to be there, what could they actually be, except " "? Because "personality elements" depend on perceiving separations as if these have actually occurred -- there are no actual personality elements to get rid of, dissolve, etc. Realizing this is " ", and thus, the realizer, realization, and realizing are one, and that one is equivalent to no-realization, or " " itself. Yes, all this is " ". Nothing, no one, no event to be excluded or included. The end of all games, including games played between higher planes and lower planes.
