Fact Of Life

Eventually an interest in nonduality will lead to the classic conundrum:

1. Is Beingness merely a product of the human brain?

Or:

2. Does the construct of an entity with a brain arise from Source/Beingness?

If it is in fact the case that Beingness/Reality is the source of any possible appearance, then why should any particular appearance be relied upon to provide an authoritative and definitive explanation of the truth of your being?

Yet already... before, beyond and during the stories that appearances tell us is a SOMETHINGNESS that is never not the case.

This primordial SOMETHINGNESS (which is not a something at all) out of which all things spring is known as the Absolute or the nondual... and is not other than this present Actuality.... wide open, fresh, inescapable reality principle... the very suchness of all activity, events, happenings, forms, thoughts, sensations, perceptions...

...the sheer fact of Life.
