existence is the principle. being is auspicious.

the principle of existence is mind-blowing

nonduality begins with variety and ends in absolution, let us pray

Suite Shining Big-Sea-Water www.aumdada.com/2025/11/2511...

By the shore of Gitche Gumee, By the shining Big-Sea-Water, At the doorway of his wigwam, In the pleasant Summer morning, Hiawatha stood and waited. ~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Koan 22

I can do the Trinity in my sleep but the Fourth is nondual, says Gaudapada

the seventh mantra of the Mandukya Upanishad is the heart of Jesus

Ted Hughes wrote Crow. Sylvia Plath was his better half.

Crow and Calvin

either one is self-realized or one is sleeping. there are three states of sleeping including the waking one.

As crow caws the cause of causelessness, Calvin preaches predestination.

By the Shores of Intuition

islands never know the sea of consciousness except upon the shores of intuition

crow mind or human mind, it's all the monkeystuff of Maya

as crow doesn't know the ways of people, people do not know the way

~my Advaita Makaranda 8 Neither body nor senses am I. Nor life-force nor mind nor intelligence. These have been embraced as mine only because of this play of thoughts in the mind.

~my Advaita Makaranda 7 Without light, the world does not exist. Without consciousness, there is no light. Without the unreal superimposed on the real, there is no union with consciousness. For I am nondual.

~my Advaita Makaranda 6 This universe cannot be experienced without the revelation of consciousness. I am that onnipresent light of awareness which is all-pervading.

consciousness identifying with the mind is like fire identifying with firewood

i've been from tucumcari to nonduality

self-awareness like a total eclipse

The moon shining on the sun is called absolution (enlightenment).

The moon shining on the earth is called consciousness.

The mind is this highly-advanced subtle body of Maya capable of reflecting consciousness

Talks on Aparoksanubhuti 56-58: the real seer

Thus these three states are considered to be unreal, creations of the three primal attributes. The real seer is beyond all attributes, that one consciousness, the Self. ~Aparoksanubhuti 58

Upon waking, the dream state disappears. In dreaming, there is no waking state. Both are non-existent in deep sleep while deep sleep is unavailable in both. ~Aparoksanubhuti 57

However much an experience this practical world seems to be, it is unsubstantial like a dream with all its momentary contradictions. ~Aparoksanubhuti 56

my Advaita Makaranda (a work in progress) www.aumdada.com/2025/11/my-a...

There is no drying, burning, wetting, cutting, or dividing that space of awareness. The real is untouched by wind, fire, water, weapons, or other instruments of illusion. ~my Advaita Makaranda 5

I always know myself. Without parts, origination, shelter, or support, I am indestructible. ~my Advaita Makaranda 4

Rising in myself alone, that space of consciousness, is this universe like a castle in the sky. Thus how can I not be Brahman, all-knowing and the cause of all? ~my Advaita Makaranda 3

remember the fifth of november. john lennon paved the way for the sopranos finale.

"that does not compute"

Altaring Consciousness

if the sun is pure consciousness, and the moon is reflected consciousness, the earth is like the jimi hendrix experience

body, ego, god, and dna

the binary universe is an appearance in nonduality

reality is inconceivable. duality is a misconception.

There is no atman but paramatman— for paramatman is the satcitananda of any other so-called atman— physical, subtle, omniscient, or seed— body, ego, god, and dna.

Imagining the slightest difference between an individual self and the Supreme Self is the undertaking of a foolish mind and certain to invite much fear and loathing. ~Aparoksanubhuti 52

I am. Always I illumine. Never am I unbeloved. For I am Brahman alone and my nature is satcitananda. ~my Advaita Makaranda 2

Is the mind a reflection of consciousness or is consciousness that in which the mind appears? Most identify with mind. Such maya is beginningless. Identifying with consciousness takes some practice.

from The Aparok Opera Experience

after fire, time zones are the greatest human discovery

They say namarupa is 40% of maya. The reflection of satcitananda makes up the rest. Differentiate the real from unreal and see this dream is just conditioned mind reflecting in the lake of pure consciousness.
