    For every activity and experience we have to use sense organs or cognitive organs, similarly we are useing apropriate instruments for any kind of jobs. And it is obvious the functions and works of our sense organs belongs to unconscious level of consciousness. The linguistic and logical capability of our mind belongs both unconscious and conscious levels of our consciousness. And intuition as the very subtle conscious capability can work in unconscious, conscious and superconscious levels of the entire field of consciousness. In order to activate the intuition we have to step by step limit the functions and especially activity of the senses, speaking and thinking. We can pass the bridge between our mind and pure consciousness by way of our intuition.

      You could say that limiting thinking and sensing etc is simply noticing when Consciousness is using those faculties. Allowing them to have their rightful function and not Identifying as them.

    So technically the mind is an energetic sphincter (if consciousness can be categorized as an energy) when under tension or contracted the amount of consciousness it can process becomes “partialized” and even polarized. (I wonder if the corpus callousum and breathing as a bridge, are involved in this process)
    Interesting how either survival or spontaneous creativity seem to be the product of this interaction depending on let’s call it the aperture of the “carburetor” It’s like a device that under low energy, only allows basic performance.
    Anyway, let’s try to enjoy life ✌🏽

    No it cant ,finite mind ,ego, is just a bundle of thoughts and ideas including the powerful idea of a person,an idea cannot know infinite consciousness, its an obstacle like clouds before the sun, which is always eternally shining.
    "Be still and know I am God", still the body and mind in meditation just to BE, its beyond the thought of I,the busy little mind seeking out there ,what is already here.....".Unless you become as a little child , ( innocent, no ego,no I) you cannot enter the kingdom of heaven."..Jesus...

    Am, ONLY knows object, as it is the QUALIFICATION itself into object REALITY. How do we know this? because what follows AM we resonate. Ones true LIBERATION is in the KNOWING of...... "I". See with absolute clarity that it is "I" that precedes the "AM" . So who is THAT one? is there any-THING more important than THIS enquiry? We are NOT the thinker or the thought of; we ARE the THINKNG. We are NOT the feeler or the felt; we ARE the feeling. You can't BE that which is SOUGHT whist you are the SEEKER. Recognize that the one you are LOOKING for IS the one SEEING. Aaaaaaaaauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm🙏

      Dear sirs, there is nothing apart from consciousness. Mind is also part of it. In deep sleep beyond dream state, the mind disappears. Truth shines. But still there is some thing that is aware of the very deep sleep and the bliss in it...that when we awake connects the mind with the bliss of enjoying the deep sleep. That something is always available in all the three states of being, it is such, that, it is unknowable and unperceivable by mind, but always it is there, like the white dot shrouded by the dark colour, whether the black colour realises that it is on white paper or not.all is one.
      It is similar to think that the movie on the screen thinks, it is separate from the screen behind.
      That is "Tatwam Asi". Everything filters to awareness, which is always awareness and nothing beyond,,,🙏

  • @AKA_SIMPLYHUMAN

    That which is not real, is asking if it can access what cannot be real. The same consciousness that believes it is infinite, wants to access itself in infinity. You are seeking what seeks you. That is the meaning of that statement. It’s circular logic. A philosophy of an imaginary being seeking itself as the real being. Do you see the fundamental error in this? Once you understand this double bind, you get the joke. You become enlightened so to speak. You are no longer being misled in order to find yourself. The ancient monks had a hoot of a time with those poor students.

    I like the shining moon picture trees , us, … As rupert states it shines in your mind, as it essentially is, which you feel by its intrinsic qualities of, to which i add, love, compassion. It does shine in and through your mind, shining through your actions when fully present, acting on love and compassion, before your egoic mind ignites a spark. It does not exist within your mind, it is the base, the foundation, the base programming, the rock, upon which all is built. There is no grey spot on the sheet of white, you are the white. The man asking the question seems to have it, and when he acts on it, he senses the actions of love and compassion. He may sense his actions are guided by another, that is fine, The light shines through his actions, but do not let your egoic mind take name to that action, which passed by its attention. Acted on by, … , the nameless, infinite being of pure consciousness, always present, when you are present. Yet always present, within, and behind the scenes, even when you are not, it seems, …,

      Lots of people "know this" intellectually and academically. Rupert Spira seems to have hit upon a set of analogies and metaphors that are very clear and contemporary that really brings it home and makes it real, not just intellectual, it seems to me. Notice that he does not talk about anything supernatural or metaphysical-- he is describing and pointing to an aspect of the human experience of reality often ignored. It really brings the traditional religious languaging to life!

    I think there is some serious winging it as you go, going on in here. The more questions asked, the broader this philosophy gets. Just like Quantum mechanics and particle physics. The answers get broader and weirder. Even science is saying “nothing exists”. “We live in a simulation”. Ah, but who lives in a simulation of what? What is being simulated?

    • @mxrsh7
      @mxrsh7 18 часов назад +1

      What is being simulated could be highly intelligent individual consciousness attempting to understand source consciousness, maybe to know about it, about if it creates consciously or not, by playing roles and characters by immersing themselves in everything they have simulated.

    Both are concepts. Finite mind and the WHOLENESS mind.
    It's like a Zen Koan which are some kind of metaphore. But some people like to play with it in order to show their great wisdom.
    From the begining the question is absurd because the so called finite mind is limited which is basically Thoughts. The so called WHOLENESS, the source, etc. Which is greater suppose, then obviously...
    But we like to escape through this kind of Imagination, fantasy. Because we just don't want to see what it is. Which is oneself. The mind that we are with all the suffering, confussion, greed, so called happy, etc. We just avoid it and then is better to play with " try to see the WHOLENESS with this mind in total disorder"....
    So we are....😮

    The finite mind may know, but the infinite mind knows and yet knows not everything - thus it is All-knowing.
    Because the infinite mind (synonymous with consciousness or awareness) is beyond time & space realm.
    It neither comes nor goes, neither moves nor stays, neither increases nor decreases.
    It's timeless, non-local, non-deterministic, and pervades the entire Universe!
