Absolutely Om / Turiya

Om Jesus. Om Beatles. Om Joni Mitchell singing paradise and parking lots. Om Van the Man into the Mystic.

Om Anne Bradstreet. Om Good Gray Poet in a Supermarket. Om White Whale. Om Walden Pond. Om Desolation Peak.

Om New Testament. Om Tao Te Ching. Om Four Agreements. Om Here and Om Now. Om Tattvamasi. Om Aum.

A is the waking state. U is dreaming. M is deep sleep. Substrate to such superimpositions is the satcitananda silence called the Fourth.

Turning on a Metaparadigm

Atman is neither the seed of consciousness as unmanifested Maya nor that god of universal omniscient consciousness called Isvara—Atman is Brahman.

Brahman both pervades and transcends this universe like ocean air does to an island atmosphere—imperceptible, unreachable, and indescribable.

Consciousness is that foundational "one self intuition essence" and not some highly refined product of oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen as scientific materialism preaches without proof.

The social conditioning of scientific atheistic materialism is the greatest obstruction to self-awareness in the current western world.

That the world appears in consciousness is common experience yet we've bought this snake oil advertising—

consciousness as a product of the material world and we drink of it until it becomes our metaparadigm. Turn, turn, turn, my friend.
