<strong>of</strong> All, <strong>the</strong> One Sole Being,<br />

which is <strong>the</strong> substratum <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r 3 bodies.<br />

The consciousness contains <strong>the</strong> three bodies,<br />

The emptiness is <strong>the</strong> consciousness,<br />

The consciousness-emptiness is <strong>the</strong> substance that all<br />

that appears to exist is made <strong>of</strong>,<br />

The consciousness including <strong>the</strong> emptiness with its<br />

awareness nature also known as <strong>the</strong> Supra-Causal body<br />

is prior to <strong>the</strong> space/gap/or blankness.<br />

For Nisargadatta Maharaj even <strong>the</strong> consciousness is a<br />

temporary appearance, an appearance on <strong>the</strong> <strong>Absolute</strong>.<br />
