This is holistic apperceptive awareness. Stability in perpetual apperceptive recognition is the basis of radical freedom.<\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0 \u00a0Consciousness is pure subject, the original primordial source of everything phenomenal as well. \u00a0 Consciousness is the changeless principle of all experience in manifest phenomena which is in incessant change. \u00a0 Consciousness is within everything objective; it encloses also and permeates all. There is actually an undivided unity of subject and object, although the appearance is usually of a duality. \u00a0 Consciousness is the Supreme Reality; it does not simply lie inert and remain totally static, but also can survey itself and produce manifest objectivity. Consciousness is not merely inert and powerless but is dynamic, creating, maintaining, dissolving, and changing the phenomenal universe. \u00a0 Consciousness is not only the knower and reflector of all but also dynamic energy able to form all objectivity. In this way, the universe is perceiving itself. The universe is perceptive functionality. Understanding the universe in this way could be called, philosophically, a Realistic Polaric Monism, or simply, Nonduality.<\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0 With open eyes we gaze out into the objectivity of our existence and see and sense all the phenomena of the multiplicity; with eyes closed we can introvert our attention toward our own subjectivity, our pure consciousness. \u00a0 We know the internal and external as subject and object, but we recognize this seeming polarity of subject-object as not-two, as nondual reality. Introverting attention inwardly, being aware of our awareness, we can re-identify with our pure subjective Being as the One Universal Consciousness. \u00a0 There is only the One Consciousness. \u00a0There is only nonduality. \u00a0 Merging subject-object is the apex of nondual contemplative science.<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/gnostiko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/DSCI1740-005.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1045\" src=\"http:\/\/gnostiko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/DSCI1740-005.jpg\" alt=\"radical\" width=\"877\" height=\"445\" srcset=\"http:\/\/gnostiko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/DSCI1740-005.jpg 877w, http:\/\/gnostiko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/DSCI1740-005-150x76.jpg 150w, http:\/\/gnostiko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/DSCI1740-005-300x152.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 877px) 100vw, 877px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RECOGNITION \u00a0 \u00a0 When pure consciousness is recognized as being self-perfected then all sorts of presumed transformations or alterations (like altered states of consciousness) will be known as wastes of time. \u00a0Until this fact is realized however, some transformation or alteration of perspective may occur. \u00a0This, when it happens is actually a dropping away, bit-by-bit &hellip; <a href=\"http:\/\/gnostiko.com\/blog\/recognition-pure-consciousness\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">RECOGNITION<\/span> <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1056,"parent":0,"menu_order":66,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1038","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/gnostiko.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1038","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/gnostiko.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/gnostiko.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/gnostiko.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/gnostiko.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1038"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"http:\/\/gnostiko.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1038\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2407,"href":"http:\/\/gnostiko.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1038\/revisions\/2407"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/gnostiko.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1056"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/gnostiko.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1038"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
