Words describe experience as translated thru one's localized
mythology. No mythology is alike and much is lost in translating a
translation. Nisargadatta in I Am That is actually dozens of Nisargadattas in
translation thru dialogues. When one gets close to 'yours,' others open. As
various translations are seen through, consciousness speaks to consciousness.
Localized mythologies gets one through the long day's
journey thru the night. Seeing thru one's mythology is the work of personal
deconstruction. Transforming one's mythology is the work of clarification. Not
knowing one keeps a localized mythology is as good a definition of delusion as
there is.
Experiential mythologies utilizing names such as awareness
and consciousness are still mythologies. If this is unseen, it's just another
belief. And one holding to the myth of scientific materialism as if it's not a
myth: what a tangled web one is weaving. Don't even get me started on the dangerous lunacies of religion.
