Absolute awareness is obviously self-aware.
Less obviously, self-awareness is universal consciousness.
This self-reflexive universe appears in consciousness.
Thank god, samsara is the evolutionary turning.
It’s not a matter of destiny or doing. Maya is nothing if not both.
It really doesn't matter what you do when you love what you are.
Ego is rock hard carbon love.
Samsara is the simple pressure of space-time.
Self-awareness is like a shimmering diamond.
Timeless. Spaceless. Whole.
Prana consciousness to Prajna consciousness is the life cycle of an ouroboros.
One could say from kriya shakti to jnana shakti if you prefer. Or life force and awareness will do.
It's all maya and brahman in self-awareness. Here's a surprise for you—maya is the ouroboros.
Remember, it's Parabrahman, Jake. Call this mahavakya, Aham Parabrahman.
footnotes
1. my current practice/play is ouroboric meditation.
2. ouroboric meditation is bhakta, tantra, and jnana wrapped up in one.
3. nirguna brahman swallows saguna brahman in ouroboric maya, but parabrahman is beyond the mind of the ouroboros.
4. tat tvam asi, aham tat. aham brahma asmi, aham parabrahman.
a. pour moi, a navnath is all about the tantric simplicity of prana-consciousness, or what N calls 'i am'. a mahavakyan is all about the jnanic simplicity of prajna-consciousness, or what advaita vedanta calls the mahavakya.
b. aham tat, aham parabrahman. i call myself a navnath mahavakyan as if a new religion, like shotgun, pope, or copyright.
c. if 'i am' is simple tantra, and 'i am parabrahman' is simple jnana, 'god the parabrahman and me, devotee, are one i' is simple bhakta.
Just as a dream is activated by the sleeping mind but upon waking there is no dream, the anatma is enlivened in the presence of the atma, but in the paramatma there is no anatma.
As nihilism is a side-effect of deconstruction, belief is a side-effect of myth. On the other hand, if Maya was a myth, paradox would be its side-effect.
If universal consciousness is the doer, and individual consciousness is the deed, self-awareness is the motive. It was Isvara in samsara with the sharp edge of a mirror!
Don’t mistake awareness for self-awareness;
everything is aware to some degree.
But when it comes to self-awareness,
human beings are the crown of creation.
Omnipotent awareness is naturally self-aware
and that’s a supernatural fact.
Self-awareness in and of itself may be a dream
but it’s an evolutionary one.
Apocalyptic self-awareness requires an evolved mind
both capable of seeing through the dream
in carefully measured deconstruction
and being quiet like a mirror.
1. Both babies and bees are aware but anthropomorphize neither. Let the reflexive universe of self-awareness take its course.
2. Yes, the world is the dark sheep night of the soul. Yay but in this dark bliss of rough tough love, please allow me, the witnessing light of deep consciousness, to be your shepherd and satguru.
3. If individual consciousness is subjective consciousness identifying with objective consciousness, universal consciousness is proof it never happened. Universal consciousness is another name for self-awareness.
Consciousness is nameless; this is why it’s called consciousness. Consciousness is formless; this is why it looks like consciousness. Consciousness is sourceless. This is why prajnanam brahma.
Western science started deconstructing dogma but soon it hit the harder stuff of theory. And ouroboros is just shorthand for nameless, formless, and sourceless.
Science is a method as is meditation. Many fall in love with method and forsake the truth. That’s called dark method. Ignorance is dark bliss. Waves are figments in the moonlight of maya.
Everything appears in consciousness! This is your first fact and only capital. Don't forget it. Do not invest it unwisely. O John Keats, beauty is truth but truth is not beauty! Do not go misinformed into that good night.
Raw awareness is my innate intelligence. Natural consciousness is my being. And the whole of it is bliss. In true science, there is no materialism. In true science, consciousness is foundational.
In true science, there are three states of consciousness. The fourth state is the stateless state of consciousness. Dreaming is an altered state of consciousness, is it not?
There is awareness and self-awareness; between them maya flows. Return to consciousness. It’s easier done than said. That nondoing does it is the inside joke here.
Every wave happens in a sea. That the sea happens in every wave, thank you, maya. There are three states of consciousness: deep sleep, sleep dreams, and dreaming deeply.
Three states of consciousness appear in the stateless state, says our hero, Gaudapada, Mandukya like. DO YOU ACCEPT CONSCIOUSNESS AS YOUR SAVIOR?
Consciousness is nameless, formless, and sourceless.
So consciousness is not a product of the brain.
If anything, the brain is a product of the life force informed by consciousness.
Western electric called it a transistor. What is a body-mind?
Self-awareness is just refined consciousness; consciousness is raw awareness.
The mind dreams dreams but consciousness dreams the mind.
The dream is the absolute. But the absolute is not a dream.
This is why we say maya dreams consciousness.
It’s basic algebra. Or advanced paradox.
In a nondual ouroboros, there’s the mouth of consciousness/awareness, the blissful body of the whole, and the life force of pure existence.
First, life begins at the tail. Like ignorance, materialism is bliss. Awareness is consciousness turned up to eleven kalas.
Self-awareness is as myth was. Every night I forget a dozen dreams for every one I wake into. There’s no argument when there’s no belief.
Note the ouroboros is maya's pet serpent. Note awareness is self-aware but self-awareness is maya.
Note electricity may power the light bulb but everything appears in the light of consciousness including the light bulb.
So the universe appears closer every day. And beyond this spacetime is consciousness—that's as close as the truth can get.
Prajnanam brahma. Tat tvam asi. Ayam atma brahma. Aham brahma asmi.
Consciousness is the noumenal. Tattvamasi. This node is the noumenon. I am Brahman as I am.
Tell all the truth but tell it paradoxically. Leave something slant for your faithful mind to chew on in the corner.
