Transpersonal Philosophy

 I have chosen a few lightnings from the great Indian Philosopher Sankaracharya. When the supreme reality is not understood, the study of the scriptures is useless, and study of the scriptures is useless when the supreme reality has been understood. What else is there to know but one's true supreme nature, Atman Itself, like space pure, imageless, unmoving, unchanging, free of within or without, without a second and non-dual.  I am neither this nor that, but the pure supreme reality which illuminates them both. I am God, the indivisible, devoid of inside and outside, complete.   I am uncomparable, beginningless Reality. I am far from such thoughts as "you", "me", and "this". I am eternal bliss, the Truth, the non-dual Brahman Itself.  I am the supreme Person and the Lord. I am indivisible awareness, the witness of everything. I have no master and I am without any sense of "me" and "mine".  

  If I say that I finally understand what nonduality is, then I am not understanding it. Well, if I understood it, I would be saying that non-duality is something that is understood or not understood, that is, that non-duality is something dual in relation to understanding. But it makes no sense to say that non-duality is dual. If I say that I finally intuit what non-duality is, then I am not intuiting it. Well, if I intuited it, I would be saying that non-duality is something that is intuited or not intuited, that is, that non-duality is something dual in relation to intuition. But it makes no sense to say that non-duality is dual. However, duality is understandable and intuitive. The fundamental intuition is expressed in the logical operators. The most basic of all is the Sheffer operator, with which we can build any system of logic, that is, any scientific theory. This operator is “Not X and Y”, where “X” and “Y” are any proposition. The fundamental logical o...

  Si digo que finalmente entiendo lo que es la no-dualidad, entonces no la estoy entendiendo. Pues si la entendiese estaría diciendo que la no-duaidad es algo que se entiende o no se entiende, es decir, que la no-dualidad es algo dual en relación al entendimiento. Pero no tiene ningún sentido decir que la no-dualidad es dual. Si digo que finalmente intuyo lo que es la no-dualidad, entonces no la estoy intuyendo. Pues si la intuyese estaría diciendo que la no-duaidad es algo que se intuye o no se intuye, es decir, que la no-dualidad es algo dual en relación a la intuición. Pero no tiene ningún sentido decir que la no-dualidad es dual. Sin embargo, la dualidad sí es entendible e intuible. La intuición fundametal queda expresada en los operadores lógicos. El más básico de todos es el operador de Sheffer, con el que podemos construir cualquier sitema de lógica, es decir, cualquier teoría científica. Este operador es “No X e Y”, donde “X” e “Y” son cualquier proposición. E...

       We have seen that, according to Zoroastrian mythology, Spenta Armaiti is the mother of Daena. Translated into our own metaphors: our Soul and our Spirit are children, each in their own ontological rank, of the Soul and Spirit of the Earth. This is already found in many different mythologies, in fact, it is a generalized intuition that all of us have when we approach Earth from the perceptual depth of our Tripartite Souls (when we approach Earth from our Xvarnah, the projection link of light or mapping of light of the Soul onto Earth). In the “Path of Beauty”, Daena appears with the Sanskrit name of Purusha, but with the same meaning of “Human Spirit” or “Human Atman”.      Let me now tell you another episode of Zoroastrian myths: the crossing of the Chinvat Bridge. I'm going to reduce the myth to its fundamental elements. The Chinvat Bridge is the threshold that separates life and death. A quick remainder: as we already know, Soul...

       The Intellectual Soul is an entity, a formation of the Consciousness-Force (Shakti), poorly understood. It is through the Intellectual Soul that the illusory nature of the world is revealed and with such revelation, the purpose of Maya. The thinking of duality, whether that of science or Ontology, or that of Art, can offer very powerful images of the Reality of the Universe as long as such thinking is not a final destination of our Will to know. For this not to happen, we must be very clear about what these images are, what the thinking of duality offers us, that is, it is necessary to understand the limits of all mental representation.      The basic epistemological axiom could be expressed like this: “There is a subject who perceives and/or conceives an object.” Let's clarify its components. The fundamental action is thinking, in which perception and/or conception intervene. Both actions are carried out by the subject (basically an unknown,...

       El Alma Intelectiva es una entidad, una formación de la Conciencia-Fuerza (Shakti), pobremente entendida por el Ser Humano. Es a través del Alma Intelectiva que la ilusoriedad del mundo queda desvelada y con tal desvelamiento, el propósito de la Maya. El pensar de la dualidad, ya sea el de la ciencia o el de la Ontología, o el del Arte, puede ofrecer imágenes muy poderosas de la Realidad del Universo siempre que tal pensar no sea un destino final de nuestra Voluntad. Para que esto no ocurra hay que tener muy claro qué son esas imágenes que nos ofrece el pensar de la dualidad, es decir, comprender el limite de toda representación mental.      El axioma epistemológico básico podría ser expresado así: “Hay un sujeto que intelige un objeto”. Aclaremos sus componentes. La acción fundamental es inteligir, en la que intervienen percepción y concepción, ambas acciones que lleva a cabo el sujeto (básicamente una incógnita, una X como dijo ...

       Basic emotions provide the semantic basis of animal and human language. We understand animals and they understand us because of the basic emotional continuity of all animal life. Anxiety and desire, or if we put it in terms of basic emotions: the neural system of fear and the neural system of search (dopamine system), have a semantic content that express the Speech of the Vital Will (as the other basic emotions do).      Basic emotions specify a direction for action and a modus operandi, and for this reason they imply a type of non-declarative, non-verbalizable, knowledge-but knowledge nonetheless- at the organism’s disposal. That knowledge is part of the Speech of our Volitive Soul (not all of it, for there are connecttions of the Volitive Soul to what we call physis at large ) . By non-declarative cognitive procedure I understand that which is linked to non-declarative or implicit memories. Non-declarative memories are informatio...
