Further Reflections on Psychotic Knowledge (cont.)
By Shunyamurti
Yet there
is a further principle, that of omnicentrism, which is implied by the
doctrine of Shunyata (Emptiness), that is found most clearly in
Tien-Tai Buddhism, but also in the model of the Net of Indra, which
is similar to the modern notion of the holographic paradigm. This
principle states that every moment of conscious experience is valid
in its own right, and that every individual consciousness mirrors the
whole, and is part of the whole. The Absolute appears as the many and
the momentary. But if we put these three principles together, then
what is Real is every arising of pure awareness, but stripped of its
subsequent interpretation. What we must sacrifice is the hermeneutic
desire, if we are to regroup into harmonious interbeing at a higher
level of consciousness than the one that we are now trapped in. The
epistemological impasse is itself an illusion created by the
psychotic delusion known as the ego. Only from egoless
Brahman-consciousness can the current lethal encounter with psychotic
knowledge be surpassed.
Such a
shift in actually existing consciousness, once enlightenment has
become the new normal, will by itself bring the current
epistemological impasse to an end. Once we are operating from quantum
consciousness, with our siddhis (spiritual powers) fully
deployed, with telepathic intercommunion in place, with everyone
sharing in cosmic consciousness, and each Atman Self-realized as an
equal point source of the Absolute, then the problem of psychotic
knowledge will have been resolved. The current state of
pseudo-normality—which is a thin veneer of courtesy over a
boiling pot of paranoid aggressivity—will have become a psychic
relic of the past dark age of kali yuga, which is now blessedly
coming to an end.
