“Since the moment of self-consciousness comes to a permanent end - and a new journey begins- is such a decisive stroke or milestone in the contemplative life, I can only speculate why so little has been said of this breakthrough; in fact , I may never get over the silence on the part of writers who say nothing about this second movement.” MayLittlesHas BeensSaidI CanEndsSelfMomentsFactsConsciousnessSilenceJourneyMovementPermanentStrokesGet OverBreakthroughSelf ConsciousnessContemplativeMilestoneContemplative LifeNew JourneyJourney Begins Book:Experience of No-Self, The: A Contemplative Journey, Revised Edition Source: Experience of No-Self, The: A Contemplative Journey, Revised Edition
“The onset of this second movement is characterized by the falling away of self and coming upon "that" which remains when it is gone. But this going-out is an upheaval, a complete turnabout of such proportions it cannot possibly be missed, under-emphasized, or sufficiently stressed as a major landmark in the contemplative life.” SelfFallGoneMovementMajorsRemainsProportionGoing OutStressedContemplativeLandmarksUpheavalContemplative Life Book:The Experience of No-Self: A Contemplative Journey Source: The Experience of No-Self: A Contemplative Journey
