A Christian "debunking" non-duality

3 posts in this topic

I found a video where a Christian attempts to debunk non-duality and this is the pinned comment under the video which I think was worth sharing:

This guy realized stuff but fails to look beyond his ego.


Spirituality is any movement towards the Unnamable. Everything is spiritual.

The only true way out Resistance is going into it because any way out of it is staying in it.

The purest life possible is surrendering to the Absolute.

All distinctions are in the mind. The fact that we have distinctions does not mean that the creator must be separate from creation. Separation is another thing in the mind. Either way, just a few truly understands non-duality. We live in a low-conscious world, the only way out is trough spirituality, going within. This has to be experienced to be known, and not many get there because the path is actually hard and requires self destruction.

Materialism and religion both sprung forth from low-consciousness, low-conscious people create low-conscious beliefs. The low conscious sees only what he can see, and thus believes that there is nothing other than the natural world. The wise, evolved in consciousness, knows that the natural world is an illusion.

Creator must be separate from creation.

Hindus have looked upon God as the dancer, "Nataraj." In this symbol the dancer and the dance are one. 

God is the creator, but do not think He is separated form His creation. When man sculpts an idol and the idol is completed, the sculptor and the sculpture are no longer one; they are separate. And the sculpture will remain long after the sculptor is dead. If the image fractures, the sculptor is not also broken, because the two are separate. But there is no such distance between God and His creation.

When man dances can you separate him from his dance? Can he return home leaving the dance behind? If the dancer dies, the dance dies with him. When the dance stops, he is no longer the dancer. They are united. God is the creator. But realize that He does not stand apart from his creation. He is absorbed and one with all that He has created.
