So we could say that all experience is a manifestation within existence. Experiences come and go but existence remans unchanged.
Which is the same as saying that all form is a manifestation within formlessness. Forms come and go but formlessness remains unchanged.
Various philosophies teach that our nature is formlessness, and identification with formlessness is realised when we go beyond the worlds of form, the physical, astral and mental. The causal realms pertain to the higher mental plane, and the higher realms beyond are the realms of the Soul or Consciousness.
In other words, to repeat the above quote from Sri Yukteswar:"
...the confined soul thrusts out the last of the three corks of ignorance and, emerging from the final jar of the causal body, commingles with the Eternal". The three corks of ignorance referring to the three worlds of form.
Then, as it says in the Gita, the Sage sees action in inaction and inaction in action.
