The universe has its limits
Everything we know has parameters and perimeters. It can be defined
in a certain way, we can say how big it is, what color it has, at what
speed it moves, what it's shaped like. Everything is defined and
confined. Even the universe has outer limits! The universe is enormous,
yet we are able to calculate its approximate size. The universe is
really a confined space. The universe, though it is vast, has its
limits. In our eyes of course, it has incredible proportions, but it is
nevertheless limited and confined.
Paradigm Shifting:
From Time to Timelessness
The Absolute is absolute emptiness, a space without confines. The
Absolute is boundless space. It is not space like we know it, it is the
emptiness that lies beyond the edges of the universe, it is the space in
which the universe expands. It is the home of the universe. It is
absolute space: 'absolute' because there are no outer limits. This is
not an emptiness that relates to fullness, that would be a relative
emptiness. This emptiness could not be filled with a billion universes.
Absolute emptiness, theoretically, can effortlessly accommodate an
infinite number of baby and parallel universes. This is space without
periphery, without boundaries.
As consciousness is life's first principle, as life begins with
consciousness, the question "What is truth?" becomes concrete by asking
"What is consciousness?" If you want to be clear on your existence, you
will have to consider the nature of consciousness. What is the origin of
consciousness? How is it possible?
Consciousness is a quality of open space. Absolute space is so open that
it becomes conscious, has to be conscious in its nature. It is so wide
open that the very openness makes it conscious. It is so absolutely
open, so impressionable, that it is conscious. Consciousness is not a
substance; it is not made out of anything, since it is made out of
absolute emptiness! Absolute emptiness, absolute space is the origin of
consciousness. One could say that consciousness is an epi-phenomenon of
the Absolute. Consciousness seems to exist, when in fact it is simply a
quality, a property, a side-effect of absolute emptiness.
The question What happens when we die? is not a very clear question,
because what exactly do we mean by we? It is a lot more specific to ask
"What happens to consciousness when our body dies?", "What happens to
consciousness when the body, our door to experience, closes?". Nothing
happens to consciousness, it is just that experiences are no longer
possible. And when new life is born, there are new experiences. With
every new birth, the consciousness-property of the Absolute is revealed.
Consciousness as such is never born, absolute emptiness does not need to
be born, does not need to be created: it simply exists as the truth
behind existence. Absolute space is absolute time, eternity, time
without beginning and without end. With every death, consciousness seems
to disappear. It doesn't truly disappear, because absolute emptiness
cannot possibly disappear. It never dies, its time is never up.
Absolute Consciousness
Like experiences are not possible without consciousness, is
consciousness possible without experiences? What does the term
'consciousness' mean when all experiences drop away, when there is no
notion, no thought, no feeling, no memory, no dream, no awareness of
anything whatsoever? The truth of life, of you, of me and of existence
is absolute space, boundlessness, absolute freedom. It is the origin and
foundation of consciousness, it is why consciousness is possible. The
light of that absolute consciousness never extinguishes. It is absolute,
because it is not even dependent on experience, on life.
