@mandyjw Yea really. It's kind of old school book and could use some updating. But glad you see the timeless truth behind the wording.

He sent himself from Himself, through Himself to Himself. There is no intermediary or means other than Him. There is no difference between the sender, that which is sent and the one to whom it is sent.” (p. 19) Know Yourself - Ibn Arabi/Balyani

The middle path between.

Be like piss in the wind, wash yourself of yourself.

@Natasha It's a 417hz audio. Usually I'm not into that kind of thing but found it yesterday and I'm impressed with the results. 10 mins. into listening to it and reality no longer exists. When you get out of work see what you think. The timeless, spaceless, locationless Absolute abounds!

Yo guys. Check this out when you get a chance. 10 mins. into it and..............well you'll see.

@Inliytened1 I was just about to do the same myself- after a hit or two.

Try not to kill each other with kindness O'K? But seriously it's been going round and round and nothing is going to change. Plus it's distracting and it's also hijacking the OP's thread. That's not fair.

@zeroISinfinity don't worry your being noticed. @David Hammond @Inliytened1 Leo verbally warned all of you about the nonduality wars the other day and it hasn't stopped since.

@Surfingthewave Your view may have changed but rest assured reality is as it's always been.

Wouldn't that be cool Jim Carrey playing Terrance McKenna

Yes, hence "the Tree of Knowlage" (conceptual knowlage) that Adam choose to eat from instead of the "tree of life" ( truth/immortality).

@Mikael89 Bye!

@Jack River There you is. haha Haven't heard from you for a while.

@Conrad Just as it has always been.

@Angelite Reside in the heart and you can't go wrong.

Yes if you truly understand then it returns to simply chopping wood- carrying water.

That being said I remember Sister Benedicts's name being slightly misprounounced from time to time.

@Serotoninluv Did you have a Sister Bernadette too?

@mandyjw It was not until they ate from the tree of knowlage (knowlage of the self) that they felt naked for the first time.

@mandyjw The tree of "knowlage" God duly warned Adam and Eve not to eat from or "you shall surely die". This biblical quote points to the "knowlage" of the separate self or conceptual self that suffers death and so the end of paradise. If you want to say that God kicked Adam and Eve out of the garden that would be true but only with the understanding that Adam and Eve are themself God but partitioned from God through knowlage of self.

They denounce the devil while at the same time do the devil's bidding.

@Conrad That's very humble of you to say. Here's Rupert Spira reading a few excerpts from the book.
