Satcitananda is the Nondual Source of That Power of Three.
Existence (I Am), Consciousness (I Know), Holistic Bliss Infinity (I Love).
The mind can deconstruct itself but it cannot break the mirror.
The mind can't break itself. My god, that’s a job for reality.
Resting in existence as effortless nondoing.
Understanding consciousness as intuitive nonknowing.
Loving ananda as unconditional nonloving.
In the name of spontaneity, self-awareness, and one without a second.
Deep sleep and the two dreamstates are states of avidya.
Self-realization is the waking dreamstate minus avidya.
I hear real enlightenment is beyond the turned-on mind though.
It’s like the difference between classical mechanics and quantum physics.
Not only is it beyond any myth of religion but all folk science too.
footnotes
fun with mandukya math:
deep sleep equals absolute existence plus latent avidya in a mass of consciousness.
it's an individual's halfway home.
avidya is unborn but not endless.
false messiahs need not apply
but true gurus are welcome.
Deep sleep is the real big bang. Deep sleep appears within that which is beyond the three powers of reflected consciousness, that fourth, Turiya.
The three powers or states of reflected consciousness are deep sleep, the sleeping dream, and the waking dream. The Fourth is Satcitananda.
Within the Fourth, the body-mind appears. Its default settings are off: deep sleep. Mind turns on first: the sleeping dream state. The body turns on next: the dreaming waking state.
Until one's original ignorance is turned off in the waking state, do not pass go. Return to deep sleep for your recharging. And another day in a life.
Ignorance (avidya) off but body-mind (maya) on is called Jivanmukti. Ignorance off and body-mind off is called Nirvikalpa Samadhi.
Satcitananda is the absolute nondual godhead. Saguna Brahman is its power of three: I Am, I Know, I Love.
In the mirror of Maya this looks like spontaneity, self-awareness, and unconditional love.
That principle of existence is manifesting as effortless nondoing.
That ground of consciousness is flowering as intuitive nonknowing.
That essence of bliss is breathing as unconditional nonloving.
Sometimes I‘m a particle. Sometimes I’m The Great Wave off Kanagawa.
Sometimes I live in Los Alamos. Sometimes I pray in Santa Fe.
Sometimes I’m Albert Einstein as The Catcher in the Rye.
First there was nondoing. Then came not-knowing. Non-loving is unconditional love.
Non-loving and unconditional love are the bliss of Maya and the unity of a universal God!
Non-loving is the expression of the essence of bliss. It breathes like unconditional love.
As nondoing is to the principle of existence, non-knowing knows the ground of consciousness.
Not thinking I know nor not know, thus it’s known. Non-knowing is intuitive in this way. It's self-aware.
This non-knowing has the intelligence of primordial Maya and the omniscience of a universal God.
Janaka charges:
I am limitless like space. The world is a so-called container like a clay pot. This is the knowledge. There is nothing to surrender, accept, or absolve.
I am like the ocean and the universe is like a wave. This is the knowledge. There is nothing to surrender, accept, or absolve.
I am like the mother of pearl seashell and this apparitional universe is like its silver. This is the knowledge. There is nothing to surrender, accept, or absolve.
I am in all beings and all beings are in me. This is the knowledge. There is nothing to surrender, accept, or absolve.
~my unbound transcreation of Ashtavakra Gita 6.1-4 using the translations of Chinmayananda, Nityaswarupananda, Richards, Byrom, et al.
Is the mind processing light or is light witnessing a process? What is self-awareness?
Does the principle of existence do or not do, be or not to be? What is nondoing?
The smell of roses in the morning reminds me of bliss. What is unconditional love?
The world is not out there. The world is in here. I am not in the universe. The universe is in me. I am not the mind processing the cosmos. I am awareness witnessing the dream.
Attention, That’s the absolute truth. But one acting as an individual should act as there's a God: I am, I know, I love. Saguna Satcitananda: I love that I know I am.
Of course in reality, there’s just the principle of existence, the ground of consciousness, the essence of bliss. In the name of nondoing, self-awareness, and unconditional love, Satcitananda.
