There's a difference between the knowing/being which has not splits within it, or between it and something else, nor within and between its experience and what's experienced ... And the attempt to be/know from a separable position within experiencing, as a static " me " ... So, in terms of experience, there is transcendence - you could call it the " dissolution of the stuck attempt at located self " Yet, in absolute terms, there is no transcendence required or possible, no self was ever located which could be trancended. The absolute and the relative, that which is beyond experience, and experience -- are not two. Make of this what you will ... ;-) There is no one anywhere, and yet, experientially, relatively, if I cut my finger and see a band-aid on the counter, it's a good idea to bring one to the other... -- Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
