Honesty is the knife of reality that cuts through everything that is

untrue. " - John de Ruiter.

That is exactly what I said at 3 years old,

when this guy stuck a knife through my hand

and pinned it to the bars of my playpen.

There is no unicity means that there is the unicity.There is no one means that there is the one. As long as the body-consciousness, there is the knowing.We are living in the duality world(actually illusion), so we can't help saying in the duality.If not, perception and communication is impossible. I am because I am not, I am not because I am.There is noumenon because there is phenomenon.I am the pure subjectivity(this is also crude expression), but It is impossible to express in the duality world. only I can say that I am "I". - Bill Rishel Nisargadatta Thursday, May 15, 2003 1:04 PMRE: Re: Cutting through the illusion.Very interesting, O Unborn One.

From neither A nor B do you get either "I am"or "I am not". If you first posit "I am", then from A you get "I am not", etc.If you don't first posit anything, then you don't getanything.

 

Let's take your noumenon/phenomenon example:Your assertion seems to be based on the implied axiom:Noumenon if and only if phenomenon.The implied axiom seems to be the "co-arising axiom" thatasserts that nothing exists without its opposite. Thisaxiom is about concepts, by the way.

 

If that is your implied axiom, I'm fine with that axiom(as one about *concepts* (not that there is anything else anyhow)). But from "noumenon if and only if phenomenon" you do not get "noumenon is" or "phenomenonis".

 

You say:> As long as the body-consciousness, there is the knowing.If you are defining "body-consciousness" as "knowing" thenby definition you have provided a tautology. And what doyou mean by "body-consciousness"? I suppose you mean somethingthat Everyone certainly acknowledges having. But I don't,and I am sure there are otheres who don't either. Defineyour terms, please.

 

The one statement you appologize for:> I am the pure subjectivity(this is also crude expression), is the one I resonate with most. Which is not to say totally.I prefer to trim the "I am" part, but a stripped downversion of your statement, "Pure subjectivity is," is somewhat tempting. I call it my Private Hallucination.

 

Finally, you didn't answer a key question of mine: As for need of duality, What duality?

 

If Truth is that which is always the case, then Truth isindependent of any particular. If there is any differencebetween noumenon and phenomenon, then Truth is independentof both.

 

So what is always the case?

 

Consider the difference between the present and any momentin the past. When I conduct that investigation I recognizethat in contrast to moments in the so-called past, "this moment" is always vital, alive. There is a subtle luminious radiance that always pervades "this moment".*It seems to me* that this subtle luminous radiance always is(and always must be). I call this radiance the Light.

 

Note: "It seems to me" translates to: per my Private Hallucination.

Pretty lucid Kim.

Nice.

 

Most have not considered that the Infinite exists only by virtue of the Finite.

But you seem to touch on essentially same when you say,

"I know 'Absolute I' is because 'relative I' is".

 

So many talk about 'I' as if it were some fundamental, immediate,

and evident reality. But in my Private Hallucination there seems no

such 'I'. Everything unneeded eventually fades away. In endless

dwelling with silence there is no need for 'I' and so it fades away.

 

The 'I' notion, afterall, is an artifact of our social upbringing.

Going into it deeply it appears there is no entity corresponding

to 'I'. 'I' is just a pronoun, a linguistic device and nothing more.

In My Private Hallucination, that is.

 

And can Absolute and Relative collapse, like matter and

anti-matter?

 

-Bill

 

 

 

 

kim ja nyun [kjn]Thursday, May 15, 2003 12:29 AMNisargadatta Subject: Re: Re: Cutting through the illusion.

In 'I am because I am not, I am not because I am'

I is not the Absolute but the relative, so your sentence is different meaning.

I(the Absolute) am neither presence nor absence.

the knower and the known, the experiencer and the experienced, the noumenon and the phenomenon,

even the Absolute and the relative are concepts.

But I know "Absolute I" is because "relative I" is.

I know 'the noumenon is' because 'the phenomenon is'.

 

Only I am 'I'

no more words.

Are you trying to change people and/or their

behavior via remarks such as these?

 

And why focus on others?

 

You had expectations about this group being more

" heartful " . What have expectations ever done

for you?

 

Heart begins with heart. If I want heart from

others I must begin by being heart-full myself.

But then I realize I can drop the " wanting heart

from others thing " since being heart-full myself

is the *whole thing*. Heart begins and ends Here.

 

I had the same disappointments about this group

regarding its seeming lack of heart myself once.

The only real remedey I found was simply to

stay in a place of heart myself. A remedy not

because it " changes others " but because it

resolves the whole issue for myself. When I

am living from heart I am already complete.

What others do or say cannot change that.

 

If you desire Heart, that is good. That very

desire is your Heart manifesting in your life.

Let that desire possess you, take over your

life. Let it become an all-consuming Fire

that burns away all the " wonderings " about

things.

 

-Bill

 

PS: You might like the SufiMystic group.

I believe you will find a bit more of a

heart-orientation there.

I had anticipated that this group would " live close to the heart " .

Too many words. Too much looking to be smart and cute here.

I know very little but it's not about little mind games or lets

see if I can appear to be smarter than you!

To succeed in this forum with ease - - go back, way back to any

random post - - cut and paste that post into any reply to a current

thread - - it will fit right in.

 

Then, when you are ready, try putting together nonsense like:

" Awareness is primal consciousness circling back onto Self "

 

When that fails, there is always quoting from a book by Niz.

 

Oh Oh, another good one is to stick the word 'not' or 'non' in

response to another's post, like:

" NonAwareness is primal consciousness circling back onto Self "

 

But once in a while

when you least expect it

someone will blow your head off

someone will strip you naked

that someone is you

 

As soon as you know who you are, you'll know who I am.

Terry,

 

Are you reading carefully?

Shawn said of Heart:

The Heart is all.

Everything arises in it.

 

How could that be the physical organ?

 

Advaita is a "non-dual" spiritual path.

In my view the most significant proponents are Ramana Maharshi

and Nisargadatta Maharaj. You will find Ramana Maharshi speaking

much more about Heart than Nisargadatta, though in my view their

essential teaching is the same.

 

In my view, to "abide in the Heart" begins by staying very present

in a *soft, gentle* awareness. So many try to quell the mind, but

that is useless . By maintaining a soft, gentle presence

Heart Awareness opens up.

 

Again, per my Private Hallucination, becoming established in

Heart as the core of one's being does not mean the end of mind.

Mind continues to function as a tool. But identity of self is no

longer associated with it. It arises when needed as a tool,

and quietens when not. Much like fire, there is nothing

inherently "wrong" with mind, but quite a problem when running

out of control.

 

-Bill

What is meant by the Heart? the physical organ?

Yes....I seem to remember Sri Niz or Ramana saying something to the effect

that to the beginner, a thought enters the mind and it is like a stone

thrown into water, whereas to the one immersed in the Self, it is like a

stone thrown into honey.

Everyone knows the " Heart. " But no one knows what it *IS*. If the " Heart "

were apart from you for a second, you would cease to be. It is simple

Being,so....BE it.

 

This THAT and the other, consciousness, noumenon..... such sophmoric

games....be happy......stop trying to impress people with this nonsense, as

if you could lay some claim or other...When a balloon pops, does it say, now

I am free?

Inability to trust is an indicator of the nature of the mind.
