The lights are on but Buddha has left the building - final chapter 10 of The Achintya Bheda-abheda Tattva

in Natural Medicine25 days ago (edited)

Here is the final chapter of my revelation on the nature of self and consciousness and its relation to the source and everything. I have summed it up succinctly for now. This final chapter completes the revelation.

The new gospel is written, teaching the same old wisdom regarding the human condition. The truth is timeless because the human is the same as always, at least for this era, under these astronomical cosmic conditions, which may be slightly different from those of millennia before.

It's the same but different. The same but always changing. We are the same eternal consciousness, simply inhabiting a time bound and relative temporary existence here and now. Try to comprehend your timeless self and it is impossible. Similarly for the timeless self to inhabit this time-bound body and life, is impossible unless full consciousness is blocked or forgotten for a while. So to even glimpse our original eternal self for a moment might drive us insane.

And what a blissful madness it would be. The holy fool wonders about the world free like a child, liberated while still bound to the body. Who can know the true state of consciousness of such a soul? Perhaps one day...

THE ACHINTYA BHEDA-ABHEDA TATTVA

By Jas Das Babaji

CHAPTER 10: The Unwritten Chapter
On What Cannot Be Said
1. Everything that needed to be said has already been said, which is nothing—everything else was elaboration, decoration, fingers pointing at what cannot be captured in pointing.
2. Here is a koan with no answer: What is the sound of the universe before the first vibration, after the last echo, and in the eternal now that contains both?
3. Here is a teaching story with the ending missing: A seeker traveled across the world, climbed the highest mountain, found the wisest sage, asked the ultimate question, and the sage said_____________________.
4. Here are instructions for a meditation that cannot be done: Sit without sitting, breathe without breathing, be aware without being aware, and when you have mastered this, forget that you learned it.
5. Go back now and read this book again—you will notice it was always about you reading it, not about the content written in it; the words were mirrors, and you have been looking at your own face the entire time.
6. Close this book when you finish this sentence, open your eyes to whatever is in front of you, and recognize it as the teaching that has been trying to reach you since before you learned to read.
7. Welcome home to where you never left, welcome awake to what you never stopped being, welcome to the joke you have been telling yourself since time began pretending to be someone looking for the punchline.
8. Key Teaching: _________________________________

THE END
