However there is not just one way that can be seen. It can be regarded as the only reality in an absolute sense (truth) or it can be a fictional reality within a fictional story about something called The Now that arises in the dream of difference. In the latter case it is not a truth but fiction because all that arises, from that non dual perspective, is an illusion of difference where there is no difference at all. As Kierkegaard would say it is not focussing so much on what is resonated with, but how it is resonated with.

This is simply to avoid The Truth Trap referred to in another thread and does not prevent a resonance with The Now because the idea that truth can be known has been transcended so whether it is the truth or not becomes irrelevant.


Well certainly if you want to scrap everything, and live more present with what is, then really, it just is what is.
