That is Liberation...

I was not silent because I could not answer

but because silence is the only answer to your question.



All verbal statements (whether they are verbose or brief, whether their purport is subtle or transcendental)

are limited by logic, by duality and division.



The supreme Self is free from all notions.

Notions give rise to objects

and when the notions are abandoned

the objects cease to be.



Do not fall into the net of duality and non-duality, etc.

All such controversy and polemics

only lead to sorrow and despair.

When one pursues the unreal or impermanent,

there is sorrow.

When the conditioning of consciousness drops away,

there is no sorrow even as in (deep dreamless) sleep

there is no sorrow.

The consciousness that abandons conditioning

realizes its unconditioned nature.

That is liberation.
