“What we call matter is the aspect we apprehend when we look at aperson,a plant or a molecule from the outside; ‘mind’ is the readout we get when we look at the same thing from the inside.” Ervin Laszlo, from the book “Science and the Akashic Feild.”

The following is quoted from Anandavala.

“By identifying with the contents of the mind we become beings in a world and by identifying with awareness we become the Supreme Self. This is the reason why many people meditate and do countless other things to identify with awareness rather than the contents of the mind.

It is also why ’scholars’ who are deeply involved in a world of ideas and who grow a vast mind that is firmly anchored to strong egoic roots, they find it hardest of all to comprehend these things and to re-identify with reality. They are very attached to their ideas and are reluctant to let go. This has been my experience.

But if the mind can be clarified and freed from its false beliefs it can be a very powerful tool that can cut through illusions and break the false identifications. This has also been my experience. I was a scholar who became a mystic and I work to build a bridge so that other scholars can do the same if they wish.

But it all depends on what are your deepest beliefs that structure the ‘I’ and ‘world’ that you experience? What is your role and agenda within that world that structures the life story that you experience? Where and how is your awareness focused? But most importantly, with what do you identify?”

There is an enormous body of work addressing these and other related questions at the Anandavala website. The information presented there can help one to reach a far deeper level of understanding and a much clearer, rational overview of the holistic context in which we find ourselves. It does however require a certain level of mental clarity to effectively absorb these ideas, and this is what I am endeavoring to help us develop.

Love and Light.
