Quote by Mokokoma Mokhonoana

“To think that you are living life, even though you still haven’t realized nondual awakening, is like thinking that you are eating a mostly sweet, partially bitter—or vice versa—apple, while all you are doing is licking a photocopy of a picture of an apple seed.”

“No Other, But One (Naskaristana 2503) Some say tawhid, some say advaita, some say ubuntu, some say divinidad. Tawhid doesn't mean all other gods are false, tawhid means it's all one god. Divinity doesn't mean mortal must submit to divine, divinity means mortal and divine are one. Divinity done properly dissolves the self, poetry done passionately dissolves the self, neuroscience done honestly dissolves the self. Shallow theology fights science, deep theology becomes it. Shallow science fights spirituality, deep science becomes it.”

“According to Abhinavagupta, a yogin who is established in the understanding and experience of supreme non-dualism, sees only one reality shining in all mutually opposite entities like pleasure and pain, bondage and liberation, sentience and insentience, and so on, just as an ordinary person sees both a ghata and a kumbha as only one thing (a pot) expressed through different words (Tantraloka, 11.19).”

“Various fascinating psychological elements are involved in the transcendental state of human consciousness. One may lose the ability to distinguish one’s self from the rest of the world in transcendence, but still it is the human brain that constructs that state of mind. Hence, even in that altered state of consciousness one is not totally devoid of one’s beliefs, conjectures, ideas and fantasies. In fact, these ideas fill up the transcendental experience with all kinds of fanatic stories that happen to be unique, based on the person’s inner urges and drives.”
