Question: So the objectless whole (Awareness) appearing simultaneously as apparent fragmentation (Consciousness) has an illusory quality?
And to fall into the trap of believing in the existence of things as separate or self-existing is delusion? And to 'see' through the illusion is to 'know' truth and is what we call awakening? Response: Basically, yes. But it’s a matter of actually seeing and not merely holding to an idea, a concept, or a belief. [If I may revise your questions, it might bring us a little closer to what I’m actually saying “yes” to: 1st Q revised: So Wholeness (Awareness), in appearing as fragmentation (per consciousness), is Illusion? Response: Yes. 2nd & 3rd Qs, merged and revised: And to see Illusion is to know Truth? Response: Yes. It may be helpful to note, however, that this has always been the case, and is the case with “you” even now. It’s how awakening is possible.] Comments are closed.
