From Nisargadatta Prior to Consciousness : neither is nor is not

[Guest guest]

In respect that this is a list founded because of the words of Nisargadatta, I

did a quick internet search for a Nis quote. Didn't take long, just a few

seconds really. Came up with the following, very on-target statements, for my

eyes:

 

As long as you are wearing this concept `I am' you will be involved with all the

concepts. When this concept `I am' departs there will be no memory left that `I

was' and `I had' those experiences; the very memory will be erased.

 

All this process of communication, expounding, etc., will go on so long as this

conscious presence is available, and all this is to merely satisfy the concept

`I am', and you the Absolute, are not the primary concept `I am'.

 

That which you like most – that itself is `I am', the conscious presence – but

that is not going to last forever. When the body drops off and the consciousness

is extinguished, you need to do nothing. With this understanding do what you

like in the world.

 

The only spiritual way to understanding you true nature is to find out the

source of this concept `I am'. Before the sense of presence arrived I was in

that state in which the concept of time was never there. So what is born? It is

the concept of time, and that event which is birth, living, and death together

constitute nothing but time, duration.

 

When you are the space you are no more the body, but whatever is contained in

that space you are. You are now manifest – whatever is known – the space. This

space is known as `chidakash'. In `chidakash this knowingness is `I am'. In the

highest `Paramakash' there is no is or is not, It transcends everything.

The organism is constructed by retaining a form.

 

That form requires polarity, requires inside and outside, requires assumed

existence.

 

The organism can't grasp the truth that transcends is and is not.

 

There is no experience of this truth, no grasping of it by an organism.

 

You might say something like, " this truth has spoken through Nis., or through

so-and-so. "

 

But this truth speaks everywhere at once.

 

Thundering silence.

 

Unspeakable word.

 

Unknowable knowing.

Hi Tim -

 

It's important to consider it in context. He is saying this to one whose

identification with human consciousness is not happening.

 

This one includes all, and so includes everything perceived, including this

human consciousness as long as it's operational.

 

So, no reason not to act in the world.

 

Any action will automatically (spontaneously, if you like) fit with everything

else happening.

 

There aren't judgments attached.

 

That is how I take " do what you like in the world. "

 

How do you take it?

I don't know. Like ya said, all happens spontaneously in any case.

 

I do " believe " in not-harming. If all is my Self, to harm is to harm myself.

 

Oh, not really, but this human life includes 'principles' and such. I don't

believe in hurting.

Without perceived separation, the intent to harm is not.

I would put it that consciousness is happening through awareness, but

identification with consciousness is not happening.

D: Operational, is the term I used.

 

The human being's consciousness is not operational after the human body-mind

dies.
