scene 2

The Mahavakya of the Mandukya is Ayam Atma Brahma.

Consciousness is the ground. Existence is the principle.

You are That. I am Brahman. We are the walrus.


footnotes

1. "The time has come the Walrus said, to talk of many things: of shoes and ships and sealing-wax of cabbages and kings."

2. "People ask the way to Cold Mountain but you can't get here from there.

Vines hang in spiraling loops, ancient rock rises high and steep, monkeys gather highland fruit, egrets fill their bills with fish from an icy pond. One or two scrolls of the immortals go murmuring by. 

If your heart is the same as my heart, we’re already here."
