I.
Bee maya, bird maya, people maya.
Maya is the power and the glory of this Isvaraverse
but people come with the additional fatal ingredients
of beginningless ignorance, collective conditioning, and big effing egos.
II.
If the way to nirvana is samsara, the way to self-realization is maya.
Maya gives and takes. Maya takes thy self via avidya
and Maya gives back that self-awareness by
the effortless, intuitive, and unconditional wisdom of the sages.
A.
You are not the person. You are the witness of the person. You're not a thought. You're the consciousness in which all thoughts appear. Attention minus thought equals the witness, pure consciousness, satcitananda.
B.
A person thinks it is the doer. The witness sees this doer being done. Such individual doing interferes with the universal being done resulting in a violent reaction called samsara. Surrender the false and get true.
C.
Effortless nondoing is the art of being done. Intuitive nonknowing is the heart of self-awareness. Unconditional nonloving is the buddha of compassion. Identifying with the witness is just a matter of time.
D.
Mind on and senses off is the dreaming state. Mind on and senses on is the waking state. Mind off and senses off is deep sleep. Consciousness witnesses the absence of duality and the presence of nonduality.
E.
I pledge myself to the Principle of Existence. I Am comes before I Am Not. Absolute awareness being self-aware is the Big Bang. Transcending the Big Bang is big. The Big is Brahman.
