Consciousness is the Subjective Source of Reality

The world is a projection of Consciousness — it is not a separate, objective reality. The objective world arises from the subjective reality, and is like a dream, a projection of the mind.

Where is the proof for this?

Paradoxically, no objective proof can ever exist for it. Only the subjective realization of it can be had, because Consciousness is the subjective basis of all reality.

When that subjective proof is had, the reality of it becomes tacitly self-evident.

Realization of your nature as Consciousness — as the perfectly subjective, unbounded and eternal source-condition from which Reality is projected — is the only ‘proof’ which will ever satisfy you.

We perceive because our brains constrain consciousness and our senses are polarized to perceive the world.

Brains and senses are things that exist in time, and arise in physicality and causality — they are like a present-time memory, always experienced as a past-tense event — a memory of the living moment.

But you are the very Consciousness that projects those forms — they arise in you, the you that is always-already Here, prior to the arising of the self-idea, and the body, and the senses.

You exist prior to all of that, your nature birthless — and therefore deathless.

Only the body and the senses and the mind are born and die. You do not. You are the uncreated Self — the “feeling of Being” — without limitation or self-reference.

You have always been Here. You are the eternal Witness of all that arises in you.
