Post-nonduality
- An adjective that refers to that which transcends nonduality.
- An adjective that refers to realization that may follow the realization of nonduality.
- If nonduality is regarded as a body of teachings, then all that is beyond all teachings is post-nonduality.
- If nonduality is regarded as a pointer to the Truth, then all that is beyond all pointers is post-nonduality.
- Being the ground of creation, prior to ideas of dual and nondual.
- Being THE SUPREME – beyond all beings, including Supreme Being.
- One who simply is THE SUPREME is post-nonduality.
- Post-nonduality is beyond all pointers and all teachings.
- The apex realization of sourceness, beyond the realization of being one with all, is a post-nonduality realization.
- The real in “Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists.” is post-nonduality (From the opening to A Course in Miracles.)
- Total integration is post-nonduality.
- A possible exception: If nonduality is regarded as a synonym for unicity or prior unity, then there is nothing beyond nonduality. However, the complicated nature of non + duality is a clue that the mind wielding the term has not yet fully resolved into simply being THE SUPREME. As the truth calibration for defining nonduality as prior unity or unicity is quite low, this exception can be discarded.
- Of course, one could make the same point about the even more complicated post + non + duality. The word “post-nonduality” is only temporarily useful in establishing that there is realization post-nonduality or beyond nonduality.
