Common Ground

This blog is intended to show the common ground between the variety of clear expressions across all so-called philosophies and religions.

All opposition is based in the mind. Arguing a certain point of view only displays the basic tendency of the mind to divide, the create opposites and hold onto one side.

Each path or philosophy may have it's differences, but THAT TO WHICH it points is the subject matter of this blog. These expressions may focus on the "realization" that Oneness or God is already the case, or they may walk hand-in-hand with the seeker.

Swami Dayananda Saraswati

Now nobody lacks the experience of advaita, of that which is nondual—there's always advaita. But any experience is only as good as one's ability to interpret it. A doctor examining you interprets your condition in one way, a layperson in another. Therefore, you need interpretation, and your knowledge is only as valid as the means of knowledge you are using for that purpose. Suppose your sense of being a separate individual falls away for a moment or ten minutes or even an hour, and then suddenly that apparent duality seems to come back again. Does that mean the one true Self gets displaced? Of course not! Then why should enlightenment require an experience? Enlightenment doesn't depend upon experiences; it depends upon my shedding my error and ignorance—that is what it depends upon, and nothing else. People say that advaita is eternal, that it is timeless, and at the same time they say that they are going through an experience of it at a particular time and under certain conditions. That's not traditional! But that is what we hear everywhere. The tradition says: "What you see right now is advaita."
