Unified-Awareness is Global
Looking at unified-awareness in a very practical way, I experience an almost surprising, simple sense of friendliness with sights and sounds in daily life. It is a delight to me how my environment feels like a clear, life-like reflection of a smiling replica of my inner Self. All my experience expresses as the fullness of Self-awareness, as the objective sparkle of Itself.
The stillness of bliss inside extends as a shimmer of brightness to my surrounding space and translates, while I am looking at anything, into a feeling of total familiarity. This familiarity is very personal, it closes all differences and uplifts even objects of sight into a serene, unified experience of the quietest connected happiness. This joy-through awareness has a greatly expanded, mirror-like quality that shines with a sparkle of unified knowingness, making both inside and outside one continuous shimmer.
My experience is also a replica of cosmic events, when I experience the geometry of the constellations and the orbits of the planets as the organization of my expanded, personal Self-consciousness. I see my awareness and body as a condensed value of the Creator, and all of Earth as the mirroring point value of the whole universe. Somehow it all fits comfortably into the unbounded, reverberating field and the blazing points of my awareness.
The elements of nature, earth, fire, water, and so forth, are knowledge-structured aspects of my Self-awareness. I see these as Vedic Mandals that are somehow ever–still while they cone into and whirl as my awareness in support of daily, environmental and earthly needs. Unified awareness is not a single-person experience; it involves all people near and far.
In meditation and in activity I experienced my mind and body as sheaths of consciousness with light-filled knowledge and wonderful divine forms all around me, churning a sea of layered stillness. Everything takes place in a golden-hued unboundedness of luminous, sparkling sound—the very structure of divine knowingness. I am the intelligence and order whirling within my vision.
My senses are participants in a detailed, heavenly, cosmic awareness that is streaming into—and is connected to—specific parts of my body. The activity of my senses is the tangible means by which consciousness moves within an ocean of unbounded Self-awareness, connecting subtle experience, physical life and the planetary environment into the one-story-package of reverberating, unified, daily awareness.
The whole, vast, golden universe roars as it percolates and spirals as the Mandals of the Rik Ved into eight perfect patterns, specifities and layers of my body, heart and mind. The planets find their connectedness to my senses as they describe and etch their specific orbits in this eight-fold geography of my, and the earth’s, physical structures. And all this cosmically fluctuating consciousness is the eternal churning of my—everyone’s—Self-awareness, that I see pouring to the different countries of the world in a wonderful sweep of universal connectedness.
Thanks for sharing, Harri.
Very beautifully expressed.
