It can be repeated a million times but we cannot be so unwise to
think that we have understood the profound meaning of it. The very
fact that it is non dual, it is not within fabrication. Not between
two moments of thought; not between two moments of arising before
thought.
Meditate earnestly
Try to fuse into everything that comes into
contact, every authentication. Experience the ultimate block as we
move along, as we delve deeper, the witnessing consciousness, the
center of all, becomes more obvious. When practices gain ground, it
dissolves but in no time, it re-appears. Are we able to come so
close to it and see it?
There is absolutely no observer; the experience of the Witnessing
Consciousness must face its ultimate challenge. Only when a
practitioners mind is tremendously attentive, vivid, sharp, alive
and clear can he then be ready. Ready to see each and every single
moment of arising that makes up the stream and how each moment
succeeds to the next moment; how the Witnessing Observer that we
have treasured so deeply is in essence an illusion. This is not an
intellectual quest; a gross mind cannot touch the true nature. The
entire purpose of the doctrine of Anatta and Emptiness is to
prepare us, ready us for this moment to come. To bear witness of
the precious teachings of the Blessed One the truth of the
instantaneous moment of arising and ceasing that makes up the
stream. With this awakening, one sees the truth that the ultimate
purpose of all practices is to lead us to the insight that
enlightenment has no attainment.
