 Q: I've just read your home page. I've been a seeker for decades, and I am frustrated. I have not read your entire website yet, but there is nothing in your essay that I disagree with.
I don't know why I've decided to e-mail you; I guess I'm just desperate. I read clear explanations of this written by sincere people, but despite all this studying it escapes me.

 Q: Is there a relationship (duality) between the observer and the object? You seem to say “YOU are The Subject, You are THAT and nothing else…”
C: There may be a misunderstanding about what “you are That” means. THAT is a code name for NO thing AND Every Thing. And as always the pointing comes that these apparent two are One Reality. Nothing-Being-Everything. But these words are NOT “truths”. |

 There is no difference between seeking and not seeking. If you are “still seeking” (as we put it when we refer to our memory and project imaginary stories into the future), it’s okay, because if at some point you find yourself not seeking, you will notice that nothing changed.

 The knowledge contained in this book is a great secret that hides itself. Even when it is clearly presented, it is rarely assimilated because you need to be prepared to understand it. Ordinarily we gain knowledge by experience, but the object of this knowledge lies beyond the scope of perception and inference, the senses and the mind. To know it, another means is required. There is such a means, but it is unlikely that you have come in contact with it…until now.

Extract from Unmani’s new book ‘Die to Love’
Before you can really know the Love that I am writing of, before you
can recognize what I am pointing to, you have to lose it all.
Otherwise, you will either toss it aside as a ridiculous concept, or you will
say, ‘that’s interesting but it doesn’t do much for me’. You might compare it
to what someone else says, or just store it as interesting information.

 Mystics have proclaimed the oneness of all things for thousands of years. The science of Self Inquiry that culminated in the teachings of Adi Shankara in the eighth century has had a profound effect on Eastern religion and spirituality. Although we see the idea of nonduality popping up in Western thought from the time of Christ until the present day, it did not develop into a systematic means of Self realization and has virtually no impact on Christianity, Islam and Judaism,

 Self-Knowledge is not complex, not difficult, not actually obscured. Ever! In this sense of your very being-knowing, being “here”, present and awake, there is an empty space of pure knowing. That non-conceptual empty knowingness arises from the one essence, which we have two words for: The Absolute. As The Absolute what we are is pure Self-knowledge, perfect, empty and complete. Said to be… just THAT. I Am That. You Are That. There is Only That.

 In the infinite varieties of the world, nature presents itself as the greatest mystery before man. It is a challenge and a wonder, an allurement and a fulfilment, which man can never escape but has to encounter. Every moment in his life, he has to confront, perceive, conceive, enjoy and even discard the things of the world. Through the scientific methods of observation and experiment, through the philosophical speculations and reasoning, through the empathy and emotions of literature, he tries to understand the things of the world.

 One of the strongest desires of the ego is to know the future. The ego wants to know the future very badly, so badly that it often resorts to making it up, if not in a full-blown fantasy at least in thoughts and beliefs about it that constantly change. Sometimes the fantasies are negative fantasies and depict the ego’s fears about the future.
