Subject: [K-list] The argument is the argument...
From: Tim Harris


On 1999/05/27 16:23, Tim Harris posted thus to the K-list:

What is, is. It will never be defined, stated or understood clearer. The
argument is the argument. Break
the argument and find enlightenment and the path that leads to
liberation. Become the neutral aspect of
the argument and find liberation then become liberation as an act of
total freedom.

The argument, which is defined here as the perpetual dynamic of yin and
yang, is the argument. This
argument may also be contained as the concept of pure truth and the
concept of absolute meaning.
Absolute truth therefore becomes pure truth with/and absolute meaning.

To simply ‘see´ the argument does not mean it is easily broken, yet, in
order for conscious awareness to
evolve, it must be broken to escape the cycle of the ‘rebirth of
consciousness´. Contrary to some theories,
the ‘cycle of rebirth´ does not point to ‘physical existence´ which is
an act ‘void´ of consciousness but
rather, points to ‘conscious awareness´. Physical existence is not
subject to re-birth as it is a result or an
effect of the conscious ‘I Am´ becoming ‘aware´ of its own existence as
‘cause´ and the physicalness is
‘effect´. In other words, I am not this body yet this body is me or,
more scripturally aligned, I am in this
world but not of this world.

One will break the argument to find enlightenment, defined as ‘awareness
of existence´, from ‘within´,
meaning wholeness unto ‘self´ and from ‘without´, where the whole ‘self´
is a quantity or fraction of the
greater awareness of absolute oneness yet, because of relativity and
position in ‘time and space´ and
‘physical existence´, amounts to nothing. Simply stated, your awareness
is both ‘in´ and ‘of´ existence.

Once one breaks the argument, the ‘dynamic´ of ‘conscious evolution´ is
laid bare to be seen but is a pure
experience/experiencer event and beyond any description in conceptual
thought or words. ‘The Tao that
can be named is not the eternal Tao´ is a good Taoist concept as an
example here, but again this concept is
misunderstood. In order to fully expand this misconception of Tao, I
must first take a small tangent to
show and define the three levels of truth.

There are three levels of truth. There is absolute truth, statisically
meaned truth, and individual truth.
Absolute truth is ‘all´ that is and is not, thus ‘is´ in its´ essence.
The mean truth is a collection of every
thought, action, written or spoken word by man which, when symbology,
myth, metaphor, superstition,
culture, idividual circumstances and limitations of expression are
filtered out, reveils the absolute
‘essence´ of truth which is meaning. Finally, there is individual truth
which is a combination of
everything that the individual knows with the understanding that all
that is ‘known´ has been told or
given to the individual by an ‘other´. This data is then compared
against the individual´s experience to
validate and reach individual truth which we shall define as ‘context´.

Therefore, the Tao that can be experienced ‘is´ the ‘absolute´ Tao ‘in´
the ‘experience´ but is ‘exclusive´
to the experiencer as the event is subsequent to previous conscious
development. Once the experiencer trys
to express this experience of pure truth with absolute meaning, s/he can
only relate it to the ‘other´ as an
‘impression´ of the original ‘expression´ of Tao. Further, because one
is restricted to one´s own context or
individual truth, the impression is filtered through the experiencer´s
context ‘and´ the context of the
‘other´ thus totally distorting the pure, meaningful expression of Tao
and its ‘eternal´ quality.

Finally, one has the choice when to become the argument but as the
neutral element which will lead to
final liberation. A mountain, no mountain, then a mountain, is a
classic, but not exclusive, Zen Buddhist
idea of this dynamic.
