My Nondual Math

1. Perennial Math

Mathematically speaking,

awareness equals pure consciousness,

and consciousness equals reflected consciousness which equals consciousness plus mind.

2. Stars of the Silver Screen

If mind plus consciousness equals what's called ordinary attention,

then such attention minus mind equals awareness, pure consciousness, nirguna brahman —

this silver screen of Self upon which reflected consciousness is now dreaming.

3. Brahmavidya 101

In classic neti neti math, nirguna brahman equals brahman without the gunas of samsara (busyness and inertia) or even maya (nondoing).

And saguna brahman is the god of samsara and maya.

In this way, brahman remains indefinable — one only knows the knower by being the knower.

~nondual haiku 101~

awareness equals pure consciousness.

attention minus mind equals awareness.

know the knower by being the knower.


~Local Heroes~

Self-awareness is the ground of consciousness flowering,

Nondoing is the principle of existence blowing in the wind,

Unconditional Love is the essence of bliss like Aurora Borealis.


~We Three Brahmans~

Nirguna brahman is the absolute minus conditioning.

Saguna brahman is the absolute via conditioning.

Parabrahman is far gone beyond conditioning. 


~states~

The waking state is body-on as well as mind-on. 

The dreaming state is body-off and mind-on.

The deep sleep state is body-off and mind-off.

When avidya is turned off, it's called nirvikalpa samadhi.

Mind-on, body-on, avidya-off is jivanmukti.
