Transcending Duality
A new message from Maitreya Ishwara
http://www.ishwara.com/
The ultimate reality of Source is nondual awareness, the mysterious realm of non-existence - the void. God creates and sustains all aspects of existence through the medium of nondual consciousness - the substratum of all manifest creations. The void creates existence from itself.
Existence is not eternal, it is just one breath of the void. When a universe is created, the divine play of hide-and-seek begins the dance of consciousness-in-motion. Before and after each universe is created and destroyed the void exists as consciousness-at-rest.
All the infinite multiplicity of phenomena in existence are animated by the One and created by the One from the essence of the One.
The indivisible oneness of consciousness manifests as the different polarities of existence: light and darkness, male and female, negative and positive, yin and yang, freedom and limitation, et cetera.
Polarity is not a spiritual problem that creates suffering; it is just the complementary dance of opposites. Polarity is vital for life to have contrast and meaning. All polarities are animated by the one divine power.
Duality is the illusion of separation from the One that is at the root of suffering. Duality is created by the ego's over-identification with a body-mind. Enlightened ones transcend duality and enjoy merger with universal consciousness in no-mind.
Dualism refers to the assumption that there is more than one power at work in existence: good and evil, the devil and God, divine will and human free will. Dualism is merely a divisive philosophical assumption that is refuted by the nondual insight of advaita and by these messages from Source.
Awakening does not necessarily dissolve the conceptual dualism of divine will and human free will. Awakened people teach whatever God wants them to, even the philosophy of dualism.
Yet all enlightened people could use their experience of conscious oneness to verify the nondual understanding of advaita: consciousness is all there is, and free will is animated solely by divine consciousness. Seekers can experiment with dualism's antithesis: God is all there is and I am part of That.
Polarity is necessary for life to exist; yin and yang are essential and complementary opposites, but the human experience of duality that is caused by ego separation is transcended in no-mind. Enlightened ones live in human bodies but their consciousness has merged with the One.
In the silence of no-mind you enter into the realm of truth - the paradise of heaven on Earth that lies beyond the suffering created by the illusion of duality.
Love
Maitreya
