When we become a flicker-free flame, both imbibing and radiating God’s love pulsation in fullness, in an unending continuum.

Experientially, we begin with separateness, shift to interconnectedness and then oneness. Correspondent to this, our fulcrum is in lower mind, then higher mind and then heart.

This is my understanding.

In the dichotomy of 'this' versus 'that' - love vs hate, light versus dark etc... we become conscious so there are not two things, there are three. The ancient pre-Taoist minks called it Triplex Unity. In Advaita Vedanta there is 'Not Two' so no Duality.

Hey again thanks for response.
Doesnt that mean that non-duality can never be experienced? As consciousness by nature implies self and other. Or even when there is no other, just self without experience and self with experience. Like a state of excitement and non-excitement.

This is my understanding.
When something is non-dual then it cannot change right? It should be eternally and infinitely omnipresent.

In terms of duality and vibration and how vibration responds universally to vibration, being law of attraction, then isn't that law of attraction what non-duality truely is?

So this ability to experience non-duality and not, means we cannot really know the fulness of it? Like it is unknowable? Only a part of it or temporarily?

Indeed. Duality is found in form, and form is always changing. The worlds of form include the mind and emotions, as well as material substance.

Formlessness is non-duality, and formlessness is ever present and unchanging. Formlessness pervades all form.

Peace
