"I am not, but the Universe is my Self"

(Shit-t'ou, 700-790)

 

Logical analysis of this intuition

By Wei Wu Wei

 

"All we can say about this which we are, which to us must be objectified as 'it'

in order that we may speak of it at all, is to regard 'it' as the noumenon of

phenomena, but, since neither of these exists objectively, phenomenally regarded

it may be understood as the ultimate absence from which all presence comes to

appear.

 

But consciousness, or 'Mind', does not project the phenomenal universe: 'it' IS

the phenomenal universe which is manifested as its self."
