' Unlimited Self '...

We cannot legitimately assert with the mind that Consciousness is limitless. That is going too far with the mind.

Although mind can know nothing of Consciousness yet, at the same time, all that is known through mind, is the Knowingness of Consciousness.

Unlimited Consciousness cannot frame or define itself within the limits of mind, although everything that appears in the mind is its expression.

However, the mind can explore its experience and can come to the conclusion that it has no evidence that Consciousness is personal or limited.

That is as far as the mind can go. We make this investigation and come to the understanding that there is no experiential evidence of a separate, personal, limited Consciousness.

In coming to this deep conviction, we open ourselves to another possibility, the possibility that there is only one Consciousness. We explore and experiment with this new possibility in our lives, and it is the response we get from the world in actual experience, that is the confirmation of this possibility.

As this conviction becomes deeper and deeper, so the confirmation from the world becomes more and more obvious.
Everything falls into place.

Like a landscape that appears very gradually out of the mist without our doing anything to bring it about, so it becomes more and more obvious, without our doing anything about it, that we, Consciousness, has only ever been experiencing its own unlimited Self and that the experience of the world is the revelation of its own infinite and eternal Being.
