Destroying the Paradox of Maya

There is only awareness. Yet, somehow, awareness is aware of something that appears to be separate from itself (even though there is only itself). Somehow, it witnesses an appearance that seems to be separate from itself as if attention of itself is extending out in space and seeing something that is ‘out there’. And so it is in these illusory dimensions that we experience a world, perceiving ourselves to be the characters inside this very appearance, and giving these multitude of characters a life of their own. We give them a hard meaning, as if they are ours.

 

This singular awareness is only aware of one perspective (what you're witnessing), yet at the same time is aware of all other infinite perspectives (i.e. every other being that exists in creation).  It cannot interact with any other perspective and so it appears as if our perspective is special and has its own unique experience that is separate from everyone else’s. Though this singular awareness is being shared by all other perspectives, from our own singular perspective, all other perspectives do not exist, and are as good as non-existent.

 

Our singular perspective takes on a life, deluded in believing it’s an entity (even an entity that is on a spiritual path aiming to find something that it already has). If it’s own attention, which is the very nature of itself, reverses and subtlety attends to its own source inwardly, it gradually dissolves the capability or potentiality for this very attention to gravitate outward as if there is something out there separate from itself to attend to. Abiding inwardly and perpetually makes this potential disappear. And so, if it disappears, then even the knowledge of being awareness will also eventually disappear since it only existed as a concept when we were able to infer what we were in the self-experience.  So therefore, even the knowledge of who we really are is lost and what remains is complete freedom. This is freedom from knowing anything, even knowing the infinitude of bliss.

 

So while all appeared to be different things, it was just one awareness that was aware of something that was neither outside nor inside itself. It only appeared as if it was outside of itself. This is the truth as it stands right now, and so we must say that there are no infinite minds throughout time and space, but rather just one mind experiencing infinite perspectives, but from each perspective, only that one singular perspective exists. It is Maya that makes this possible. This principle of Maya is also perfectly intelligent because even though all perspectives are non interactive, they all align and are entangled with one another by virtue of everything being just one singular mind. And so everything is perfectly in sync as it is defaulted as such.

 

When one abides in awareness as their true self, all is known as a dream conjured up by awareness’ own power. We must try to remain as THAT until the ability to experience a dream ceases and so the paradox of maya will be fully destroyed forever. What remains is what always was.  Only the delusion of knowing it to be something different is completely gone.
