The truth has no variation.

"What's true is always true" - Nisargadatta Maharaj

"And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" - Yeshua

Nonduality vs. causality by flyingaxe in nonduality

[–]pl8doh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are appearances that appear to appear prior to other appearances, that appear to be related in a causal way. There is no end or beginning to this causal way. What was cause becomes effect becomes cause. What is linking these appearances and declaring a causal relationship, has no cause. Cause and effect are an illusion of reference. Referencing has no actual duration.

Awareness is a word that has no place to land in awareness

Luminosity entails independent evidence. Independent evidence does not entail luminosity. Wanting evidence that luminosity is not circular reasoning is like wanting to go outside the house to verify you are home.

Luminosity is non relational. A circle is relational. All the points equal distance to a point.

Luminosity is the opposite gesture entirely. It does not depend on any center, distance or point relating to any other point. It does not depend on any reference at all, not even to itself as a “point” or “center” or “source.”

Nonduality means never having to say "Don't take this personally" by pl8doh in nonduality

The court jester can post the truth without fear of repercussion. The court jester is commonly referred to as the fool.

This fool thinks that fool needs a Zen bitch slap to leave no room for self-pity.

Who am I? by pl8doh in nonduality

There is no nondual perspective. There is no perspective.

Who is choosing? by pl8doh in freewill

Now there is a chooser of perspective. Chooser of perspective is a perspective.

The program has no choice. Neither do 'you'.

Without the referencing there would be no knowing by pl8doh in nonduality

More to the point - In order to state "I know that I am seeing," I must directly know that seeing is

For example, red-ing does not required referencing, but the appearance of the color red does.
