Beyond the Threshold of Awareness

The Unutterable Presence

There exists a state beyond all conceptual understanding, a dissolution of every boundary that once defined existence. It is not merely an experience but an annihilation of the experiencer—a cataclysmic merging into the unfathomable. This is not illumination in the conventional sense; it is the collapse of all divisions, the vanishing point where emptiness and form cease to stand apart.

Words fracture under the weight of such an encounter. No language can capture what has neither shape nor limitation. It is the ultimate paradox—utter nothingness brimming with infinite potential. The moment one seeks to grasp it, it recedes into the void. And yet, it is always here, unshaken, untouched, the silent witness that has neither beginning nor end.

The attempt to articulate such a realization feels like trying to hold onto the wind. It cannot be contained, only lived. Every atom, every unfolding event, every whisper of movement in the cosmos is a testament to this unnamable presence. It is not separate from life but the very fabric of existence itself—an unspoken language through which reality reveals its nature.

The mind, conditioned by duality, cannot comprehend this dissolution. To see it is to stand at the precipice of all that was ever believed, to watch as identity crumbles into the abyss of truth. What remains is neither self nor other, neither light nor shadow—only the boundless expanse of that which is.

This is not a state reserved for the few. It is always available for those who dare to surrender, to dissolve into the vastness without resistance. But such surrender is not an act of will; it is the natural outcome of seeing clearly, of ceasing to grasp at the illusions that veil the obvious.

Some may call it the Absolute. Others, God. But even these are mere echoes of something that defies every attempt to name it. It is not found through seeking nor lost through ignorance. It simply is.

To those who approach the edge of this knowing, there is only one certainty—what awaits beyond is not an experience to be had but the final recognition that there was never anything but this.

Beyond the Verbal Abyss

Embracing the Indescribable in the Pursuit of Nondual Consciousness

The realm of metaphysics has been exploring the uncharted territory of human existence since the inception of philosophical thought. The concept of ‘Turiyatita’, borrowed from the ancient Vedantic wisdom, invites us to delve into the mystery of the Ultimate Nondual Presence. In a state of supreme transcendence, Turiyatita marries the notions of Emptiness and form, painting a picture of the Self fully liberated and realized.

This profound state is said to represent the highest level of human awareness. It’s the experience of actualizing the quintessential Vedantic concept, “Aham Brahmasmi,” the realization that all is Brahman, the ultimate reality.

The fascinating paradox of this journey lies in its unspeakability. The moment of enlightenment, where one realizes their ultimate oneness with the universe, is so overwhelmingly mind-shattering that no human language can capture its essence. We find ourselves venturing into a stateless state, an inexplicable expanse that houses all potentiality, while simultaneously being nothing. It’s a cosmic riddle that has always existed and will continue to exist, challenging the very constructs of human understanding.

Over the years, I grappled with expressing the enigma that is Turiyatita. I discovered that language, no matter how profound or poetic, remains insufficient to convey this transcendental experience. The individual mind’s narratives fall short when tasked with communicating such an experience to the collective consciousness. This realization is like a boundless sea that can only be expressed through the universe itself – through everything around us, beneath us, above us, within us, and even through us. Our very existence, after all, is an echo of this ‘Absolute’ language.

This illuminating journey of pure awareness left me in a state of awe, marking an indelible imprint on my ego’s fragments. An unforgettable memory, it is the most profound self-discovery I’ve had in this lifetime.

Most of us remain oblivious to the existence of this state, yet it’s accessible to everyone. It waits patiently for anyone bold enough to plunge into its mysterious depths. These are the Akashic waters of enlightenment, a blissful abyss where the brave explorers willingly lose themselves.

This presence, while unnoticeable, pervades our existence as an invisible field, a force that forms the bedrock of all beings. It’s in the exploration of this Ground of All Existence that one realizes the enigma of the indescribable, the ineffable mystery commonly referred to as ‘God’.

So, as we journey through life and its varied experiences, may we always strive for the courage to explore these profound depths. For it is in these explorations that we touch upon the mysteries of our existence, our true selves, and the cosmic reality we are all a part of.
