Dear Nos:

Something that is uninvolved sees contrast more accurately than
the involved participants,

Hence Duality whether Monadic or otherwise is a subject for
perception and investigation by some third Perceiver who is not
involved in that particular contrast.

Only the ABSOLUTE SOURCE OF ALL could answer to such a position.
Yet, in manifestation the MIND also answers to that capacity as
it "sees both ways" It looks up to SPIRIT and WISDOM. It looks
"down" to desire and passion and the conditions of the forms and
the human bodies, astral and physical.

2.	Krishna was not speaking as "a Person" or a "Personal god."
He was illustrating the vast power of LIFE / KARMA which
continually presides over all manifestation in the endless
DURATION.

That's as I see it.

Nos WRITES:

A small snipper -

'It is only one pole of the equation. To obtain perspective or
use of
the concept one needs the other 2 participating Qualities. In the
B Gita
Krishna, speaking as the MAHA-VISHNU, the PRESERVER of the
UNIVERSES,
says: "O Arjuna I created this whole Universe out of a single
portion
of myself and remain separate." '

My thoughts :

1 - By saying there is more than one pole to an equation is of
course
continuing non-unity divide along the lines of subject/object
etc - a
diferentiation hence mayavic

2 - As much as I hold the Gita as my prime spiritual source one
would
have to say that as a theosophist you can't just accept something
like
"O Arjuna I created this whole Universe out of a single portion
of
myself and remain separate." - if evidence goes against it. So
Heisnberg
says that there can be no seperation of event and viewer how
could one
remain separate from ones creation - unless of course it is a
theoretical or mental seperation - which would still seem mayavic
to me.


I really don't think you can explain this topic with words. One
must
become nothing to experience it - hence gNOSis...

Anyway
