Nondual Reality & Singularity (Nonduality & Nonlocality)

A. H. Almaas, Founder of the Diamond Approach® speaks at the Science and Nonduality Conference 2010. "Spiritual development usually proceeds from the dual to the nondual perspective. The characteristic recognition of the journey of descent is that reality is nondual, that realization and life are not separate. At this juncture, it is very easy to fall into the reification and fixation of preferring the nondual to the dual and of believing that the nondual perspective is final. In fact, many of you might be thinking, “Why does he keep saying there is no aim? Clearly, the nondual perspective is the aim and now, finally, we got to our aim, to seeing the oneness of reality!” But if we really understand the nondual perspective, we recognize there can’t be any aims. If everything is one, how can there be a separate person striving toward some differentiated goal? And beyond this impasse, at some point, we can come to see that reality presents possibilities other than dual and nondual. Reality is quite mysterious—its aliveness is irrepressible." - A. H. Almaas, Runaway Realization, ch. 7 "A related dichotomy is that of duality and nonduality. Some refer to Reality as nonduality, to emphasize that there is no separateness between observer and observed, manifestation and source, and so on. Yet, in reality there is no such thing as nonduality. Nonduality is the creation of the discriminating mind, just as duality is. At best, it is a concept that attempts to describe the nonconceptual, but it fails just as all other terms do." - A. H. Almaas, The Inner Journey Home, ch. 19 "We can think of consciousness being aware of its own actuality as a loop of self-reflection. But a loop implies time, right? Now suppose that the loop gets smaller and smaller—infinitely smaller until the loop disappears. This would mean that there is no time between actuality and the awareness of actuality. There is no longer self-reflexivity or the passage of time. It is a singularity of presence that is a singularity in time. It is completely self-aware right now; its self-existence is its self-consciousness. It is completely timeless." A. H. Almaas, Brilliancy, ch. 3 "When we transcend the transcendence of space from finitude to infinity, when we are truly free from the concept of space, we realize that there is no here and no there and no everywhere. There is simply no location. I call this experience of no space “total nonlocality.” Nonlocal usually means that one is not located here but located everywhere. Total nonlocality means something different. It means that there is no extension and, thus, no space. It is experience without being here, there, or everywhere. There isn’t an everywhere to be. So what is present if there is no here and no there? We are back to the simple experience of the lizard—pure perception. We are back to simplicity before conception. This condition of total nonconceptuality is free both from the concept of space and from the freedom from the concept of space." - A. H.
