Nonsensical non-dualist and dualists

All these teachings are nonsensical.

 

As long as nonsense has it appropriate context,

it is fine. Nonsense imparted within an appropriate

nonsensical context makes perfect sense.

So, teach nonsensical advaita

teachings at an advaita convention, and teach

nonsensical mechanical teachings at a mechanics

convention. Trying to take a teaching out of its context

makes it even more nonsensical, for example by trying

to make a teaching " universal " , for all folks at

all times, in all cultures.

 

If no one has anything to teach me, I am fine as

I am. If someone claims to have something to

teach me, an " outside " position has been created

from which to observe " me " and " what I supposedly

lack, and need to learn. "

 

There is nothing whatsoever to teach, as there is

no outside position. And - as there is no outside, anything

can be taught. As long as the teaching fits the context,

there isn't any problem.

 

Now, take the word " absolute. "

 

Who is saying this word?

 

" Absolute " compared with what?

Being told to whom?

 

The silliest and most useless teachings ever

invented are teachings about " the absolute " ...

 

Some other very silly teachings are about the

nature of " relativity " , but at least those

can claim some kind of context ...
