Is this a paralel toJesus?

[Guest guest]

I got to this talk by Wayne Liquorman and it helped me to understand

the misunderstanding of jesus teaching by his followers, and the

aparent discrepancies between Nisargadata and Ramesh pointed by some

guys. What do you think?

 

Wayne> Certainly, the organism has memories.

 

> But you yourself are not those.

 

Wayne> Well, this is how Maharaj spoke - as a teacher, not as a

businessmen, not as a beedie merchant. He spoke from the standpoint

of Consciousness. He said, " What I am is this Totality. That is

what I truly am. I am not this limited thing. What I am is awake

even when I am asleep. What I am was never born and will never

die. " Maharaj is dead. I've been to where they cremated him. So,

he's not talking about the meat, he's talking as a teacher, as a

pointer to something. Of course, the people sitting around are

taking it literally; some of them, not all of them. But many,

especially when he's not there to clear up the confusion, take it

literally. The notion that is absorbed is that Maharaj, that

animated piece of meat sitting there, is God, is Consciousness;

somehow, he's different from everybody else. And that is not the

case. That organism that we call Nisargadatta Maharaj was born to

particular parents, lived, married, had children, had a business,

and he died. Along the way he talked, and along the way this event

that we call enlightenment or awakening happened through him as

another event in the history of the organism. As a result of that

event, people came and asked him questions. In order to point to

the nature of things, he spoke from the standpoint of the Totality.

I could do that, if you want, but it's not how I normally conduct

the talks.
