4 Mahavakyas in 3/5 of a 2nd

Philosophy is full of words. There are four mahavakyas used in countless variations.

If consciousness is the metaphysical gound called brahman,

and the innermost self called atman is brahman,

then I am brahman,

tattvamasi.

footnotes

1. I minus avidya equals that minus maya means tattvamasi.

2. Objects are seen in the mind when the mind is turned on for both dream states. 

3. When the mind is turned off in deep sleep, the seer still sees—no objects are there.

4. The absence of duality reveals the presence of nonduality, aum.

5. All gods, including the ones of scientific materialism, are accepted by Isvara on planet Maya. Worship responsibly.

6. Consciousness is the ground. Existence is the principle. Self-awareness is holistic infinite bliss.

7. Death shall be no more. Death, thou shalt die. Rave on John Donne. Rave on Shankara.

8. And the nominees are:

Deconstructing Spacetime in Grand Canyon.

Seeing through Causation in John Ford's Monument Valley.

The Legend of Basho Stopping at Matsushima and the Haiku He Never Wrote.

And the winner is Fleas, Lice, and a Horse Pissing by My Pillow.

Suddenlyte

Consciousness-existence is the ground upon which this world is turning, twisting, slithering.

Don't take this personally but you're not a person. 

Deconstruct the smoke and mirrors until suddenly things become transparent.

You're beyond spacetime and there are no words.

Footnotes

1. For the destruction of ignorance, the cessation of saṃsara, and the establishment of Brahma-vidya, take Shankara:

— "The notion of "I" arises from the non-Self belonging to the domain of mere words."

— "The one seer is self-evident. That substrate shall not be negated."

— "True knowledge refutes false knowledge. A person is liberated without desiring so."

2. Maya is fantastic; avidya is so last year. The river is never the same river for the river was never a river. The mind reflects pure consciousness but thinks it has produced it.

3. Am I the body-mind producing consciousness or am I satcitananda reflecting in the namarupa?

Take Shankara

For the destruction of ignorance, the cessation of saṃsara, and the establishment of Brahma-vidya, take Shankara:

"The notion of "I" arises from the non-Self belonging to the domain of mere words."

"The one seer is self-evident. That substrate shall not be negated."

"True knowledge refutes false knowledge. A person is liberated without desiring so."

Real Arts and Sciences

Without mind there's deep sleep. Without consciousness, there's death.

For the body only borrows its existence from the satcitananda of Brahman.

Existence identifying with non-existence takes some kind of special ignorance.

Undoing such doings is the science of nescience and the art of as it is.

The universe is made of satcitananda. The mind adds namarupa to make it a world.

This planet of Maya feels so real because its fancies are formed from reality.

Footnotes : Mindgames

1. One goes into the woods to be in satcitananda with as little namarupa as humanly possible.

2. Material science is reconstructing the universe. Real science is deconstructing name and form.

3. Samsara lives because Maya is beginningless. Enlightenment happens because Maya ends

4. As material science reconstructs the beginningless, real science deconstructs the never was.

5. On that screen of satcitananda, Maya is playing daily. The mind even dreams when it's sleeping.

6. Although there's no beginning to the beginningless, there's an end if you really look for it. Aum.
