Consciousness or the ground of being, in the act of being aware, is there as an observing quality upon whatever is observes in this here and now. References are not there without a reference point (consciousness being aware). There is no separation in that quality ever..can only seem so.

I think where we differ in what is seen is that you still claim individuality which I refer to, more often than not, to mean unconsciousness (as an awareness identified within its content of conditioning) yet all the while proclaiming that the path has ended, when there is no one there that a path ends for. There is no waking up for someone there as a conditioned mis-perception to begin with because no one is having a dream. This unconsciousness or mind identity only believes it makes choices, beyond that perspective its only apparent but is never enabled by an assumption that confirms I am separate.

Is that your take? If so, how did this shift come about?

You take me as someone who has gotten cut in the midst of deep contemplation. Some transparency was reached however not finished. The mind is awesome at hiding the absurdity of itself as an authentic existence.

Again your take on me is off and for whatever reason you need to try and make this about me. Again, irregardless, what I am, awareness is inherent. The ground of being is aware, it is not being aware. The ground is aware capacity not capacity being aware. That seems to be where we differ and explains why you think there is further to go or that you have gone further or that I am stuck or whatever.

physical time exists, obviously. it takes time to walk to the shop. but does time exist psychologically? does it take time to awaken; to understand your mind? i am aware of the passage of time, psychologically speakin, because there is conflict. would there be the experience of time, psychologically speaking, if there were no inner conflict? consciousness may be able to be free of time, but the body cannot be, as time and space (3d physical reality) are indivisible.

If matters, every living thing should have its our universe, where time can be switched on/off.
Thought, only people are interested in "unified" time so much...

Note I'm still wearing watch but using it for appointments only.

I hear you. LOL...quit wearing watches ages ago...just rely mainly on body clock (& alarms as backup, occasionally).

Mainly coz every watch battery I have ever worn lasts no more than 3-4 months and it is a royal pain to try to keep up with up.
Funny it's the only "jewelry" my ex gave me...I have like 10 watches, very nice, and they are all dead sitting in their boxes in a sack.

Peace & blessings,
7L

There is no higher or lower Capacity...

Consciousness is awareness, is perpetually expressing, taking on the apparent something from its source of potential nothingness.

You are that...all of it.

However, most see just a glimmer of light from a crack in the ceiling (while in the gap of awareness) and only imagine that the house has fallen. All the while still fixated on seeking out anther glance. In the end, Its duality, searching within a concept of duality and non duality, which is there. Most who see awareness do not notice its own subjectivity still in place in a relationship with objectivity. When awareness recognizes itself as self aware, as that which has always been the authentic quality, then everything you perceived as reality goes to ****.

No one made that shift happen and no one there to know it. Its consciousness being an apparent relative quality.

Rarely if ever do I use awareness to mean ground of being, consciousness or source. Pure consciousness is the ground of being.

Again, here's the question Capacity:

How did this shift come about?
