All pointers-techniques are a thorn to remove a thorn, After the thorn is removed, throw away the thorn, technique or understanding. Prakashananda Baba: “You cannot realize with a formula, use it and then throw it away.” Consciousness is the substance of all that appears to exist, there are no concepts separate from consciousness, the appearance of the world is consciousness. Within the consciousness bubble lies worlds, gods, bodies, layers, universes, veils etc. Like peeling back the layers of an onion All the layers are still the onion, Peel back the layers; neti neti. First see everything as consciousness, a supra-casual bubble Until the Absolute is revealed, Abide in that Absolute, prior to the onion itself. Deconstruct theories, metaphors or concepts through identification with the consciousness, appreciate all is made of the same substance as the consciousness. A bubble which gives the illusionary appearance of being separate from the emptiness, A bubble universe of consciousness appearing to float on emptiness, Emptiness appears as a conceivable-perceivable VOID “As If” it were an actual substance or thing. Emptiness as well is the consciousness 15
and all perceivables or conceivables is an illusionary mirage on the Absolute, prior to the word Absolute. Nisargadatta Maharaj, when asked, Who Are You?, replied, “Nothing perceivable or conceivable.” All perceivables or conceivables are to be discarded as not this, not this. Nisargadatta Maharaj neti neti through negation, until the negator too is discarded or negated. Neti neti through “seeing” all as made of the same consciousness. Neti neti until the emptiness-void and the consciousness dissolve as one. The consciousness bubble universe floating on the knowable or perceivable Void is a picture to be discarded. All words and language are both binary and dualistic, language produces metaphors which deludes by granting the sense of isness or beingness, and in a word existence, describing things that do not exist as separate independent things or beings separate from the consciousness. The “Rays of the Absolute”, “The Song of the Absolute”, is not to create a new system metaphor or school, rather to give pointers metaphorical thorns or concepts which will destroy all other words and concepts. 16
