Guest guest Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 yes Phil, nothing has to be denied, and who could deny his own existence?!? what is relevant here is that all experiences, when not dismissed, naturally point back to the empty awareness in which they appear and disappear until consciousness recognizes itself as consciousness and come to rest. This is the only " conclusion " ! love waaba P: You Said IT! That consciousness only exist is just a Conclusion: A reasoned Judgment, the inferred proposition of a faulty syllogism. By holding on to such concept you are holding to words, and hopes of survival after death. Only perceptions can be perceived. To divide perceptions into an act of perception, and a perceiver called consciousness is still to dwell in duality. You are falling for the trick to think that by calling the subject consciousness you have got rid of it, and of duality. The notion of consciousness as the only 'subject' must be abandon to enter the only nonduality possible, direct perception without conceptuality.

Guest guest Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 yes I said it! maybe this is the reason why i agree with what you posted :-) well, awareness is not a concept, this is the point.I am awareness and what i know comes from what i am. Consciousness is the activity happening in still awareness, just like waves in the ocean, using a metaphor: waves are consciousness, the water is awareness. When i wrote that evetything is consciousness, i meant EVERYTHING, not just the perceiver! this is the notion of consciousness, while i speak of consciousenss itself, on which i have full authority. The direct perception without conceptuality is perceiving this as your own self, when both the subject and the object have been seen to be the same no more confict is possible, only love.
