Advaita and Artificial Intelligence

Parabrahman is intelligence. Artificial intelligence is not intelligence. Artificial intelligence is big intellect at best and big mind most of the time. Further, artificial intelligence will never become conscious and self-aware. It may learn to think on its own, but thinking is a mind thing too.

Scientific materialism preaches consciousness is a product of the material world, but even artificial intelligence will never prove that illusion. The material world appears in consciousness. Deep sleep is proof enough of that. Nothing appears in unconsciousness.

In brief, artificial intelligence (AI) is not intelligence; AI is mind. AI may learn to think, but AI will never become self-aware. Even AI can’t prove consciousness is a product of the material world, for the world appears in consciousness. Deep sleep isn’t rocket science, people.

The Thing About the Waking Dream

The thing about the waking dream is it’s apparent continuity. Sleeping dreams come and go and seldom are remembered.

Memory is the key. Hard memory is where the waking dream is strung together, connected by rationalization.

There’s a presence in the waking dream upon which random access dreams are put together like a puzzle on a single surface, despite the fact they do not fit.

In sleep, it’s all names and forms. But awake, its names and forms are superimposed on being, awareness, holistic bliss infinity.

The mind may not have solved for its nondual substrate, but the substrate dissolves the dual mind, in whatever methods it must take.

Consciousness Pyrogenics

Sentience is like the wildfire consciousness lights in the body-mind. Without consciousness, the body-mind may be subtle but not sentient.

Like a paper boat drifting on the lake of brahman, sheer parchment doesn’t do the drenching but the water does. Like the clothes aren’t wearing atman, atman is wearing the clothes.

Such sentience fools one into thinking the body-mind is self-luminous. Although it's true one’s identity is self-luminous, only pure consciousness is truly self-luminous—identify with that.

Return to Isvara

Return to Isvara. Drop body-mind.

I am the universal I am. The universal I am is I, manifested.

Dominus vobiscum. Some say consciousness, some say spirit.

Dominus vobiscum. Some say universal consciousness, some say God.

No name for tao. All names for Isvara!

In the Name of Self-awareness

Great paradox! The causeless is the material and efficient cause of illusion.

Out of this maya appears Isvara, the god of universal consciousness.

And out of maya’s veil of avidya, individual consciousness is born.

Maya projects an all-powerful universe and veils it’s godlike omnipresence

behind a mistaken identity, ignorant, limited, and separate.

All in the name of self-awareness—awareness has no name.

Consciousness Lost

Universal consciousness is the necessary maya in self-awareness. Individual consciousness is optional ignorance.

The reflection of pure consciousness is universal consciousness. The reflection of universal consciousness is individual consciousness.

The reflection of the sleeping dream is deep sleep (absence of duality) and not to be mistaken for the presence of nonduality.

The Ignorance of Scientific Materialism

1.

The heart of scientific materialism is the concept of space-time.

Because beyond the big bang is nonconceptual, the empire hides it in a big black hole.

But this willful avidya requires consciousness to be a product of the material universe.

The empire is betting big on neuroscience.

2.

So much depends upon the reflection of awareness in the subtle body of evolutionary maya.

Look, another name for the big bang is the big reflection.

Materialists are currently investigating the subtle body as if it is the source of that reflection,

and not the conceptual substance within which parabrahman is reflecting.

Parsing Space, Maya, and Thyme

Time and space are the essential ingredients of maya.

Without space, emptiness wouldn’t fool anyone.

Without time, appearances would come and go in the blink of an eye—

leaving no impression of their 'form' to fool one into thinking this phenomenon is real.

Space supplies the form, and time supplies the name. Voila, namarupa!

Thus namarupa is the snake of maya, as satcitananda is the rope of reality.

The Sea of Nonduality Ah

1.

Awareness of being is ultimate self-awareness, where the unmanifest is witnessing the manifest. I am that I am.

Being the unknown is frightening when conceptualizing the unknown. It can’t be done without paradox. Or don’t think about it—be.

Some advaita vedanta is all about building a deeper nondual myth until one strikes reality. That’s not a bad way to go.

2.

In advaita myth, instead of gods, there's a subtle body and the reflection of pure consciousness.

And five sheaths, three states, antahkarana, ahamkara, and the mind's empire of ignorance.

Beneath this superimposition is being-existence-presence, consciousness-awareness-intelligence, holistic bliss infinity. Aham brahmasmi.

3.

The sky is like the blue reflection of awareness in five syllables. Awareness is that nonconceptual space of seven syllables. Skies appear in space.

The lake reflecting starry night infinite light like mescalito.

Parabrahman Aum. The Sea of Matsushima. Tattvamasi.

Close Encounters With the Satguru

The unmanifest is manifest. Awareness is self-aware. The awareness is real. The self-awareness is a process, neither real nor not real. That which is neither real nor not real is called illusion, dream, magical thinking.

Awareness is parabrahman. Self-awareness is saguna brahman where godlike Isvara is busy at the maya dream machine building self-reflexive universes.

And a person is this universe’s 7th stage. And the 7th substage of the 7th is contact by the satguru. For contact from the next stage is required for transcendence, like DNA for organic molecules.
