Just as the paths/lineages of yoga and buddhism are many and different, the self inquiry and self realization is one and same, similarly, there had been and there are many different individual selfless physical structures with their own respective individual selfless modification of the mind, that had been or are existing and functioning under many different conditions, qualities, traits, personalities, states, desires, behaviors, actions and reactions, manifested under different time (timing), space (location), and causation (cause and effect), are many and uniquely different from one another, but the selfless consciousness that gives rise to different states of consciousness and conscious awareness to all the countless different individual minds that had ceased existing/functioning and/or are existing/functioning, in NOW, is the one same timeless attributeless selfless consciousness.
There had been and there are countless individual minds ceaselessly arising, changing, and passing away at their own respective cause and pace under different time, space, and causation, while the timeless selfless consciousness that pervades all and everything within and without throughout the infinite space, doesn't come or go, or change.
The selfless existence and function of the many different individual selfless minds are non-independent (depending on the selfless support of the selfless energy and elements to be existing and functioning), impermanent (ceaselessly changing), limited, and conditional.
They are non-self (their impermanent inter-dependent limited and conditional existence and function doesn't even belong to themselves, not to say, all and everything that the minds think and believe that belong to them).
They have a beginning of existence and an end of existence, they are limited and conditioned by time, space, and causation, and it is limited and conditioned by discriminative and assertive or subjective functions/modifications of perception/cognition/memory/intellect/thinking/feeling/emotions/action and reaction/desire/self-identification or self-acknowledgement (the idea of 'I' or the ego, that gives rise to separateness and egoism, that give rise to all kinds of impurities and restlessness).
The selfless universal consciousness is independent, unchanged, unlimited, and unconditional. It is beginningless and endless (unlimited by time or impermanent changes and activities), it is all pervading (unlimited by the limitation of space that exists in all kinds of names and forms), and it is unborn (non-manifested), nameless, formless, attributeless, or substanceless (unlimited by causation - cause and effect).
Just a the infinite space is timeless, attributeless, and unborn/non-manifested, the selfless universal consciousness is timeless, attributeless, and unborn/non-manifested.
Everything that are manifested in the infinite space under specific qualities of names and forms (matters/molecules/cells/atoms/protons/neutrons/neurons/electrons/elements/light/heat/gas/energy/air/water/minerals/living organisms/objects/planets/stars/suns/galaxies/universes/worlds/atmospheres/environments/conditions) are all limited and conditioned by time, space, and causation. But the infinite space are untouched, uncontaminated, undamaged, unhurt, or undetermined by all kinds of manifestations. The space doesn't increase nor decrease regardless of all kinds of names and forms arising and passing away.
The selfless universal consciousness is the timeless selfless silent witness (the indiscriminate/non-judgmental/non-interfering imprint of) towards all kinds of selfless manifestations. It is untouched, uncontaminated, undamaged, unhurt, or undetermined by time, space, and causation, or the selfless manifestations of all kinds of names and forms that are limited and conditioned by time, space, and causation.
Just as the function of memory itself is indiscriminate/non-judgmental/non-interference towards the contents of the memory.
The selfless universal consciousness is selfless, neither self nor non-self.
It doesn't belong to anyone or anything.
It's not 'my consciousness', 'your consciousness', 'our consciousness', 'their consciousness', 'its consciousness'.
Inquire the truth of everything.
Attain direct self realization, and be free.
