Nonduality

 

The Buddhists talk one way,

Ramana Maharshi uses different words.

Both teach that when you remove

Everything From your mind,

Consciousness remains,

Existence remains, Being remains.

 

Buddhists call what remains "Buddha-mind,"

Hindus call it "Atman," or "Brahman,"

Some call it Absolute Being,

Some call it God.

 

This teaching is of Nonduality.

Nonduality teaches "No division."

 

The Veda-s say, "Thou art That."

You are that which you seek.

Looking deep within

One finds what one seeks by

Looking to ones own deep identity.

What is found is Nondual reality.

 

Read, reflect, and deeply meditate on this.

Dear Alton,

 

Glad that you find interest here.

 

The first draft of the book was all meditations. I realized, after

reading it, that I had to provide the reader with the appropriate

spiritual context. Thus pages like the one posted yesterday.

 

My thought in approaching the book was to make it primarily

experiential, so the reader could discover for him or herself. So

most of the book consists of meditations.

 

There are many sources for the teaching, and since I am just another

seeker, I do not feel it is particularly appropriate for me to take

whatsoever the role of teacher. So, also for this reason, I wanted

to keep the teaching to a minimum.

 

Thank you for your encouragement.

 

We are not two,

Richard
