Don't be silly. If you can speak of consciousness then you have objectified it. In the English language that is called a noun so it is a what. Wrong. Again, this is where "pointers" come in. If I was "objectifying" consciousness, the words would suffice just fine. I am saying they don't even come close...they are merely pointers....they fail, but words are all we have, so hence, we use them to try to point. I don't need a pointer for consciousness. I know what it is. It is what I am.

If that's all you see, then you are mired within the conceptual realm...mired within experience. To see beyond, a shift in vantage point is necessary. Oh give me a break. I'm not a dumb ass asking stupid questions. I'm just presenting the same questions that philosophers have been asking for thousands of years. I'm not calling you a dumb ass. Philosophers are generally very intelligent, smart people. There's a vast difference though between intelligence vs. transcendent clarity. The realization of Truth has nothing to do with philosophy.

Yes that's true and what I'm telling you is that no one knows whether objects have an inherent existence or not. But I assume they do just like tantric shaivism does which is non-duality. You think that's a contradiction.

Further Satchi. How can it be a mistake if I know consciousness and I communicate that through language which necessarily means I have to use a word. This is crazy talk.

Just absolute, certain clarity. It's clear you have no reference for that.

You've imagined consciousness to be a something that arises in experience....you are mistaking an experiential facet...a perceivable for the ground. You must go deeper...further.....your view is still mired in the dream.

You have admitted you don't know consciousness.
