Nisargadatta Maharaj (pg. 114): “So long as you consider yourself a separate entity wanting spiritual salvation, all this is useless.” As Consciousness is the substance of the dream state. So consciousness is the substance of the waking state, So too Consciousness is the substance of the space with a small ‘”s” or “casual” body, By being the consciousness there is no need for renunciation, all just falls away, Knowledge or information has no origin, there is only consciousness. The experiential perception of consciousness is a station. Consciousness came from Nothing or nowhere, prior to the words nothing or nowhere. Consciousness is spontaneous and instantaneous. All appearances are unreal there is only consciousness the substratum of all and everything. Prior to the Self of All is the Absolute without a concept of self or non-self. . Nisargadatta Maharaj (pg. 150): “In the end, one has to give up even the association with consciousness itself. This is the ultimate aim.” Consciousness is temporary and an illusion. 93
Nisargadatta Maharaj (pg. 26): “You are consciousness. Where is the question of your merging with the consciousness?” Nisargadatta Maharaj (pg. 184): “We think that when the body is destroyed, the consciousness is also destroyed; it is not destroyed; it becomes one with the universal consciousness.” VeRSe TWO The emptiness: The Subtle Side of Consciousness As the consciousness stills and fades, The subtle screen of consciousness appears as a Void or Emptiness. This emptiness or void is “perceived” or “witnessed” as a substance or a thing. At first glace the Void is imagined to be the Absolute, which it is not. The consciousness now, appears like a sun in the middle of this empty void, Like a sun in the middle of the emptiness the consciousness shines, And there, within the distant consciousness sun, The imperceiveable universe appears made metaphorically of the rays of the consciousness sun. The sun, consciousness, bubble universe appears on the Emptiness or Void, 94
