SUMMARY:MCMT Sangha - The Simple Suchness of Nonduality
DESCRIPTION:Nonduality simply means “not-two” and points to the fundamental absence of duality or separation of phenomena. Nonduality teachings can be discerned in many\, if not all\, wisdom traditions\, but are usually either wrapped in esoteric mysticism requiring elaborate and arduous practices\, coded in religious language\, or conceptualised in philosophical treaties\, to name a few of the common practical and psychological hurdles. The difficulty consists in the unavoidable paradoxical nature of nonduality\, which can only be accessed by direct experience\, and not “understood” with the faculties of the mind. Nonduality goes by countless names and has a multitude of qualities\, some non-traditional ones being: Choiceness Awareness\, Unconditional Love\, Boundless Freedom\, Timeless Presence\, or Inexpressible Essence. While resting into nonduality is a moment-by-moment opportunity and challenge that might take a life-long practice (and an act of grace) to “perfect” or “stabilise” (terms common in Buddhism)\, getting a taste\, or a glimpse of nonduality is possible and available to us all\, perhaps even independent of spiritual maturity. I invite us all to open to the simple\, ordinary\, and\, in a sense\, obvious nature of nonduality.
