For some months now I’ve been feeling/thinking on how best to approach this blog topic. Even at this time I’m not completely convinced I have the right approach, but I have to say something.
This website is really for the more advanced seekers/knowers of higher states of consciousness so tighten your seatbelt.
Pure Consciousness eventually culminates in Unity Consciousness where we see our Self as everything and everything in our Self. A nice blend between pure consciousness and the material world. But this is not Brahman Consciousness. As per my own direct experience, I’m finding UC to be creation specific because it needs The Relative (the items and attributes of the material world) to unite something(s).
We can look at it as pure consciousness, being the tablecloth for a nice dinner with the beautiful place setting as components of the material world (foundational components) and the food as an endless array of sensory taste objects, selected from the field of all-possibilities. None of which would be on such a beautiful display without the covered table (Brahman).
When you look around you right now, in the place you are sitting, while reading this article, you see objects, but we can also see/sense/know that pure consciousness really permeates all those sense objects evenly. It even permeates you, the observer, your body, your thoughts, your emotions. This happens to such an extent, in this state that there is no difference between everything you are and everything you see. Even what you don’t see beyond the walls around you extends to infinity.
However, if you look/feel closely, you’ll notice that you somehow are more brilliant than the evenness of pure consciousness. You have a radiance greater than pure consciousness and you can see or sense it in other awake souls you come across. So, what is that? This thing that is brighter than pure consciousness with a sense of being as foundational as pure consciousness but somehow more than pure consciousness. Where does that come from?
I went into that brilliance, into Self, and couldn’t find Its source. I assumed It was somehow a creation of pure consciousness but that wasn’t the case. It stands alone. Self-effulgent in Its own nature. Not an outcropping. If anything, pure consciousness is a development of this brilliance. I was perplexed for many days. Making many consciousness trips to this brilliance seeking out Its source. I did find a point value to It. A highly concentrated brilliance that shook my physical body on a deep level and delivered high amounts of bliss. Along with a continuous abstract folding and unfolding undulation of newness. Like Self in a creation mode but with nothing actually manifesting, but continually creating. The verse in the Gita came to mind, ‘Curving back on My own nature, I create again and again’.
While in that state I can easily slide into It where all that is around and through my Self is brilliance. No others. No world. No agenda. Just pure Self in radiant bliss. I’m thinking this may be Brahman Consciousness. I don’t own that state yet, but I know the trail to It. I find my meditation continually culminating there.
I’m writing this so you too will find a way to rest in your own brilliance. Know that there is a difference between resting in your radiance and in the point value/center or source of that radiance. The source point is in the heart of the soul located in the center of the chest, spoken of in the Upanishads as the size of the thumb. Tread carefully there, it can be extremely intense as a full dose, but you can back-off of it to where it’s manageable for your nervous system. It will be better for your consciousness development to take smaller doses and allow for assimilation. Enjoy.
Love always my friends ❤️❤️❤️
