there is no limit to this moment

In this moment there is nothing which comes to be.

In this moment there is nothing which ceases to be.

Thus there is no birth-and-death to be brought to an end.

Wherefore the absolute tranquility in this present moment.


Though it is at this moment,

There is no limit to this moment,

And herein is eternal delight.

Whole-Mind

When the ultimate object has been negated,

Then what remains is I,

And I am the affirmation of all that has been denied.

in non-duality, there isn't any "thing"

What you are is "no thing",

not even existence or non-existence,

consciousness or unconsciousness,

in time or timeless.


All such designations are conceptual

and in duality.

an oxymoron ?

"total presence"

Enlightenment,

instead of altering our state,

discloses

what we have always been.


--- John Blofeld

'narrative' tends to be extremely 'narrow'

No "thing" ever happens - except in stories.

Balsekar and Gray - remixed

The Unmanifest Source is negative;

its phenomenal manifestation is positive.

And both, as such, are concepts in the split-mind of a subject-object understanding.


In the absence of the conceptualization, the apperception happens that there truly is no thing (separate).

This Apperceiving, which can be pointed to as "the mutual existence of Unmanifest and manifest", alone IS.

I DO NOT BELIEVE in the existence of any object, in the factual being of anything objective whatsoever.---Wei Wu Wei

So if the sureness of reality is strictly defined, be cautious of its promise.

There is no promise, for promise entails time; and there is no time.

This is all there is, all we have, and there is no we to have it.

What is, is.

you mean it's NOT ABOUT ME?

Many seem to believe that Enlightenment means that THEY would BE a certain way, and NOT otherwise.

I prefer the pointer that awakening to Enlightenment (What IS) is apperceiving that ALL IS - always, already, PRECISELY as-it-is.
