The selfless universal consciousness and the selfless mind stuff are both selfless, where there is neither permanent nor impermanent self existence or self identity existing in the one same all pervading selfless universal consciousness that pervades all and everyone and everything, or in the selfless mind stuff of the many different individual selfless mortal bodies and minds.
However, under the influence of ignorance,
Some minds might think and believe that the consciousness (that gives rise to conscious awareness) is an individual consciousness, where the individual consciousness is part of the mind stuff (the different selfless functions/mechanisms/modifications of the selfless perceptive cognitive intellectual emotional thinking and acting faculty of the selfless physical body), that they are one non-distinctive subject, that they belong to one another, and that they exist along with one another and they ceased existing simultaneously upon the end of the selfless existence and function of the selfless physical body.
Meanwhile, some minds might think and believe that each and every single mind comes with the respective individual consciousness, that has a permanent independent immortal individual self identity that exists infinitely, but 'somehow/doesn't know why' and 'doesn't know/remember since when it all began', or 'due to an initial ignorant downfall or sin (the original/first seed of karma that gives rise to ceaseless births and deaths or endless reincarnations) in accordance to some cultural/spiritual/religious beliefs', to be undergoing ceaseless and endless reincarnation being reincarnating into countless different momentary mortal life existences under certain names and forms transitioning under many different realms accordingly to the ceaseless and boundless accumulation of 'karma' under different qualities that have been generated individually and collectively in every single different and separate life existence, where the individual consciousness is being born into another life existence upon the death of each mortal life existence under different names and forms that exists impermanently and momentarily in different realms in accordance to the accumulation of 'karma' that have been accumulating since the beginning of the very first mortal life existence until the present mortal life existence, that seemingly can never be exhausted completely, because every single thought and every single action/reaction will give rise to a new cause that lead to effect, while the effect of each cause is also a fresh new cause, inevitably and naturally, forming a wheel of an infinite loop of ceaseless accumulation of boundless karma, because there are ceaseless karma/cause and effect being generated consciously and unconsciously in every single moment, just by being existing and functioning as it is.
Contemplate upon this -
The ONE same all pervading timeless attributeless selfless universal consciousness that pervades the entire infinite space, not to say, within and without all and everyone and everything, is not the impermanent, limited, and conditional selfless mind stuff, and vice versa.
The selfless mind stuff is impermanent, limited, and conditional, where there is the beginning of existence (formation of names and forms) and the end of existence (decay and disintegration of names and forms), and there are ceaseless changes of decay and disintegration in between existence and ceased existence, inevitably depending on the selfless support of the selfless energy and the many different selfless elements to be existing and functioning and changing/decaying as what they are, governed by the nature's law of cause and effect, being limited and conditioned by time, space, and causation.
The selfless universal consciousness is permanent, unlimited, and unconditional, beyond existence and non-existence/ceased existence. It is unborn or non-manifested. It is independent, beginningless, endless, attributeless, changeless, and effortless, untouched by the selfless energy and selfless elements or the intentionless indiscriminate nature's law of cause and effect. It is unlimited, unconditioned, and undetermined by time, space, and causation.
The selfless universal consciousness is not part of the selfless mind stuff, and vice versa.
The selfless universal consciousness doesn't belong to the selfless mind stuff, and vice versa.
It is like the timeless selfless silent witness that is witnessing the knowledge and the knower of the knowledge.
The timeless selfless silent witness is neither the knowledge nor the knower of the knowledge.
The knowledge and the knower of the knowledge exist along one another, and they don't exist without one another.
Regardless of whether the existence or non-existence/ceased existence of the knowledge and the knower of the knowledge, the timeless selfless silent witness (the timeless selfless universal consciousness) exists as it is, before, during, and after the existence and ceased existence of all kinds of names and forms.
Contemplate upon this -
The selfless universal consciousness gives rise to a 'bridge' (conscious awareness) that connects the two sides of the river ('the perception of names and forms/the experiences/the knowledge' and 'the perceptive cognitive intellectual emotional thinking and acting mind/the experiencer/the knower'). Without any of the sides of the river, it is not a river, or there is no river (The mind perception of a world of selfless impermanent limited and conditional momentary existence of diverse names and forms).
There is needless of the existence of a 'bridge' that served as the connection between the two sides of a river, if they is no flowing water/liquid/mud (all kinds of selfless manifestations of names and forms that form 'The world'), if there are no two sides of a river (The perceiver and the perceived), or there is no river (The world of names and forms that is perceived by each individual mind that is existing and functioning under the presence of conscious awareness). The flowing water/liquid/mud, the two sides of the river, and the river, are co-existing and co-ceased existing all together, simultaneously. The world doesn't exist to the mind that doesn't exist, or doesn't function as what it is under the presence of conscious awareness, to be consciously aware of 'The world'. For example, 'The world' doesn't exist to the mind that is in deep coma, or to the mind that had ceased existing.
The selfless existence of a river that exists as what it is, that is being formed/manifested/shaped under the existence of the two sides of the river that are existing due to the intentionless continuous stream of flowing water/liquid/mud (manifested under the selfless support of the selfless energy and selfless elements) that flows under the intentionless effect of the gravity (the selfless nature's law of cause and effect), that gives rise to and influencing the directions/different branches (the different conditions and situations of the world, or the different manifestations of the different existences and functions of names and forms under different qualities/conditions/situations, or the selfless impermanent changes in all kinds of names and forms, or the selfless conscious and unconscious evolution of the body and mind), and the interventions/obstacles (actions/causes and effects being generated under the influence of conscious by choice actions/activities under certain conscious desires under the influence of certain constructive or destructive intention and correct or incorrect discrimination, as well as under the influence of unconscious autonomous instinctive activities/urges operating under the influence of the selfless intentionless survival instinct/genetic traits inheritance/autonomous bodily systems), and the effect of the gravity (the intentionless indiscriminate nature's law of cause and effect), forming the two sides of a river that gives rise to the existence of 'the river' that hosts the continuous stream of flowing water/liquid/mud, where all that exist along with the existence of one another simultaneously, and don't exist if without one another.
The selfless manifestation of a selfless impermanent limited and conditional world that consists of 'all kinds of names and forms' and 'the countless individual perceptive cognitive intellectual emotional thinking and acting minds', ceaselessly changing under the influence of all kinds of conscious and unconscious activities and selfless impermanent changes/evolution/decay and disintegration, that are happening/manifesting under the selfless support and influence of the selfless energy and the different selfless elements, where all that are non-self, that don't even belong to the names and forms, or the perceptive cognitive intellectual emotional thinking and acting minds, or the conscious and unconscious activities, or the selfless impermanent changes/evolution, or the selfless energy and the different selfless elements, themselves.
And,
A container (the mind perception of a selfless impermanent limited and conditional worldly life existence) doesn't exist as what it is if without the formation of the body of a container (the selfless impermanent limited and conditional life existence and function of the body and mind) to be existing and functioning as what it is, to hold something inside it (the selfless mind perception of a momentary mortal worldly life existence experiencing all kinds of names and forms or experiences).
The container doesn't exist or function as what it is, if there is nothing that can be hold by the existence and function of a container. The selfless formation/existence of a container and its selfless function is manifested under the selfless support of the selfless energy and the different selfless elements, and governed under the intentionless indiscriminate nature's law of cause and effect.
What and how the active user of the container (the perceptive cognitive intellectual emotional thinking and acting mind under the presence of conscious awareness) uses the container (the mind perception of a selfless impermanent limited and conditional momentary mortal worldly life existence and function of a body and mind under the presence of the selfless conscious awareness) and what type of contents (all kinds of physical/mental/emotional activities/experiences/actions/reactions via the organs of the senses (all kinds of inputs) and the organs of actions (all kinds of outputs) under what type of conscious and unconscious intention/desire and correct or incorrect discrimination/understanding, and the respective consequences of all that) that the user puts into the container under what type of intention and discrimination/understanding, is nothing to do with the container, or the contents, or the nature's law of cause and effect, or the selfless energy and the different selfless elements that enabling the formation of the container and the contents to be manifested/formed as what they are under the nature's law of cause and effect, either under the influence of conscious by choice desires/activities/actions/reactions generated by the selfless perceptive cognitive intellectual emotional thinking and acting mind under the presence of conscious awareness and under specific intention and discrimination/understanding, and/or under the influence of unconscious instinctive intentionless activities/urges/stimulus/responses operating under the influence of the selfless intentionless survival instinct/genetic traits inheritance/autonomous bodily systems.
But the timeless attributeless selfless universal consciousness a.k.a. the timeless selfless silent witness, is untouched or unaffected by all that, the existence and non-existence/ceased existence of the perceiver and the perceived, the knower and the knowledge, the experiencer and the experience, birth and death, good and bad, right and wrong, positive and negative, meaningful and meaningless, peaceful and peaceless, selfish and unselfish, wise and ignorant, kindness and cruelty, awake or asleep, conscious/semi-conscious or unconscious, and so on, as well as all kinds of cause and effect being generated ceaselessly and selfless impermanent ceaseless changes/evolution in between existence and ceased existence, regardless of whether under the influence of conscious by choice desire generated by the selfless perceptive cognitive intellectual emotional thinking and acting mind under the presence of conscious awareness under specific intention and discrimination, or under the influence of unconscious instinctive activities/urges/stimulus/responses operating under the influence of the selfless intentionless survival instinct/genetic traits inheritance/autonomous bodily systems.
The selfless universal consciousness is attributeless, nameless, formless, identity-less, beginningless, endless, changeless, timeless, thoughtless, actionless, maintenance-less, non-manifested, non-decay, or complete effortless, undetermined and uninfluenced by the presence and absence of the selfless energy and selfless elements, or the selfless manifestations/existence/impermanent changes/ceased existence of countless selfless names and forms under different qualities governed by the nature's law of cause and effect, devoid of impure egoistic restless mind stuff of perceiving/experiencing/thinking/discrimination/understanding/remembering/intention/identification/action/reaction, of all kinds of duality, of 'known' and 'unknown', of 'I'-ness and 'mine'-ness, of grasping, of desire/don't desire, of inevitable restlessness of ceaseless conscious and unconscious physical and mental activities/ceaseless maintenance/ceaseless effort for ceaseless maintenance until the end of existence.
And hence, the selfless universal consciousness is permanent, independent, unlimited, and unconditional (infinity), that is neither self (oneself and that belong to oneself) nor non-self (not oneself and that doesn't belong to oneself).
Meanwhile, the selfless mind stuff, or the different impermanent conditions/states/modifications/functions/mechanisms/bodily systems of the many different individual mortal bodies and minds, are being limited and conditioned by the impermanent, limited, and conditional attributes/conditions/limitations under different names and forms, the ceaseless selfless impermanent changes or the inevitable natural process of decay and disintegration, that have a limited duration of existence and function, of limited and conditional physical and mental activities (perishable/destructible/limited/conditional/impermanent/finite), that require ceaseless maintenance, that inevitably dependent on the availability of the selfless support of the selfless energy and different selfless elements for coming into existence and function (formation), for powering the ceaseless conscious and unconscious physical and mental activities, or the ceaseless maintenance for maintaining the limited duration of the momentary existence and function and changes/growth/ceased growing/decay/disintegration of the mortal body and mind.
And hence, the many different individual selfless mortal bodies and minds are non-independent, impermanent, limited, and conditional, that are non-self, where the selfless impermanent limited and conditional existence and function and changes/decay/disintegration of the bodies and minds don't even belong to the bodies and minds themselves.
The direct self realization towards Selflessness and Non-self deriving from performing self-introspection to be investigating towards 'What is going on in the thinking faculty of the physical body?' and performing self-inquiry to be inquiring towards the truth of all and everything that the mind comes in contact with under an open mind and non-grasping, will enable the mind to know and understand towards the truth of "What is the 'I' that the mind perceives, identifies, acknowledges, and remembers as itself?', or 'the mind stuff', or 'the modification of the mind', or 'the mind perception of a momentary worldly mortal life existence', or 'the perishable impermanent limited conditional momentary mortal existence of all kinds of diverse names and forms', or 'the ignorance', or 'the evitable and inevitable suffering', or 'cause and effect', or 'the veil of ignorance', or 'the ego and egoism', or 'the impurities', or 'the restlessness', or 'the different states of mind', or 'the ceaseless births and deaths/reincarnation', or 'the mind conditional and habitual thinking behavior pattern', or 'the universal consciousness', or 'conscious mind awareness', or 'the different states of conscious awareness', or 'time, space, and causation', or 'existence in NOW', or 'neither past nor future', or 'conscious mind evolution', or 'liberation', or 'freedom', or 'silence', or 'transcend', or 'unconditional peace', or 'fearlessness', or 'timelessness', or 'non-duality', or 'oneness', or 'non-separateness', or 'non-violence', or 'all kinds of myths and story telling', or 'all kinds of selfishness and possessiveness', or 'the intentionless survival instinct', or 'the many different ideas, beliefs, values, desires, aspirations, behaviors, and practices' in this world of names and forms that are subject to Selflessness, Impermanence, Limitation, Conditional, and Non-self.
Do not blind-believe, blind-follow, blind-agree/disagree, blind-practice, or blind-propagate anything from anyone, including all kinds of yoga and/or buddhism teachings from anyone and anywhere, including all that is here.
Inquire the truth of everything.
Purify. Meditate. Inquire. Realize.
Attain direct self realization towards the truth of everything.
