Taking The Path To Infinite Consciousness

We often turn meditation into another task, trying to fix our thoughts or escape our minds. In this exploration, Saja gently shifts your perspective from the drama of the movie to the stillness of the screen. Instead of navigating life as a heavy, separate self, you are invited to rest as the timeless, unconditioned awareness that effortlessly hosts the flow of existence. This is not a practice of detachment, but a return to your true nature, a zero-dimensional space of pure, loving curiosity, where you realize that nothing in the world can touch your peace.

So don't do anything in particular. We don't want to start a meditation. This is the thing, Right? What we're doing is not We're not doing the meditating. Think of the classic idea, We're a separate self, We walk around. Let's just say we're in the monastery or maybe it's a Vipassana retreat and we're walking around all day and then we sit to meditate. We're a separate self that goes and then does an activity. Called meditation. And this activity is typically something we do. Try and do something. Try to do something, Whether it's to empty our mind, To recognise our true nature, To to enter eternal bliss, Whatever you want to call it. We're always doing some type of activity in order to get somewhere or do something. That's like a character in the movie doing everything it can, In the movie, To try and find the screen. The character in the movie will never find the screen by doing things in the movie. So in order for us to see the screen, In order for the character in the movie to be able to see the screen. What would it have to do? It would have to recognize the screen in which he plays. So the character in the movie would have to turn around and stop looking at things stop looking for. Things. Stop trying to find content. Stop trying to change the content of experience. Stop trying to change the content of the mind. Anything we do to find something. Is always in direction of the movie. In our experience, The movie is our mind and the mind is life. Life is everything perceivable, Everything in your room, Everything you are experiencing. Is your mind. Because the part of reality, Yes, Someone could come into your room, Technically they would be experiencing their mind also. They wouldn't be seeing your mind. They would be seeing the same reality from their mind. You see, Just like we're all seeing the same screen right now, But you're not sharing my laptop. No one's using my laptop. I am seeing the same screen from my laptop. Likewise, So I am experiencing something that is unique to me. So when we are experiencing life, We are experiencing something infinitely unique to us, Even though it's the same thing as everybody else. It's just an infinitely unique point of view. So the screen. In the metaphor is Consciousness. The screen is pure consciousness. We're all experiencing that right now. When you are aware of these words, We are all experiencing the same. A way in to solve them. You hear the words, But not just the words, You experience the awareness of them. You are experiencing the awareness of experience. We are all experiencing the awareness of experience. We are all experiencing the same awareness. Awareness and consciousness are used synonymously. How do we know that we are all sharing the same awareness? The first thing to see is that. If something. . . There can only be one infinity. There can only be one infinite thing. If there is an infinite thing, There can only be one of them. That's the first thing we need to understand. You can't have two infinite things because one of them would have to set a border. Between the two, Or both of them would technically have to have a border. And the one that had a border, Which would have to be both, That separated the two infinite things. Would create a limit of those things. Therefore they wouldn't be infinite. So see that you cannot have. More than one infinite thing. If something infinite actually exists, Then there cannot be more than one of them. To say there is one infinite thing is still another limit. You cannot have one infinite thing. Because if there is something infinite, It cannot take place in the dimension where all the currency or the calculation of one. Is even possible to be comprehended. It would have to be outside the dimension. Where math exists. Namely outside the dimension of time and space. Also. . . That infinite thing, Whatever that might be, Would have to be true from all points of view. It would have to be inherent in all reality. If there is something infinite. . . It has to be everywhere. Can't just be in some realities or in some experiences or in some people's experiences, Or the experience of a cat and not a dog, Or the experience of a mosquito and not in the experience of a fly. It would have to take place everywhere. There must be nowhere that that cannot be. Now some may say, Well, What about experiences where there is no experiencer? Well, We can already make those experiences redundant, Or not even experiences, But what if the infinite thing takes place in somewhere where there is no mind, Where it's outside the mind and there's no experiencing taking place. Well, We can instantly rule out all those areas by seeing that if there is an infinite thing, Then. We should be able to experience it in experience, And it should take place in all experience. So in other words, If there is an infinite thing, We should have the capacity to experience it. If we wouldn't have the capacity to experience it, It wouldn't be real. It wouldn't be an infinite thing because it would have a limitation. The limitation would be, It is not. Experienceable. Not just that, But the limitation would be that it wouldn't be in objective experience. And if it's not in experience, It wouldn't be an infinite thing. So that which is infinite has to be in all experience. Zero-dimensional, Transcendent of time and space, And yet consistent in all experience. And not just consistent in the sense that it is in all experience, But consistent in the sense that it is the same in all experience. It looks a little bit different for me and it looks a little bit different for you. It would have to be the exact same thing, The exact same experience. This should be no difference in the experience of it. Not just that. But it would have to have no start or end. It couldn't have a start date and it couldn't have an end date. It couldn't have a border and it couldn't have an edge. Would have to be 100% infinite. There could be no limitation to it. Now apart from transcendent of time and space, Inherent in all experience, True from all perspectives, Consistent from all perspectives, Consistent in all experience, Ever-present, What else can we think of to remove any type of quality that could be limited from it? Just true from all points of view. Without any start and end. That would be something that is infinite. That is something we would qualify as infinite. Now, In our experience, We then are left with the investigation. Well, What is it in my experience that has all of those qualities. We should be able to experience that. It should be there if there is something infinite. It should be there and we should be able to see that. If it's not there and we can't see it, Not only that, If it's there for some of us and not for everyone, Then it can't be the thing. So now we investigate our experience and we say, Well, Based on my experience, What is actually there that I can qualify. For the infinite culprit to be. Let's just pretend we're a detective. And we're looking for the source of infinity. If it's there, It must be there. So we're going to investigate. We're the detectives. So now we're looking, Well, What is there? To actually explore so that we can track all avenues while we have thoughts and we have the five sense perceptions. We have sights, We have tastes, We have sensations, We have sounds, And we have smells. All of those, They're called perceptions. That's the first thing we see in experience, Perceptions. Okay, What else is there to explore? Process of thinking, We have thoughts. We have memories and we have imagination slash visualization. Can anyone think of any other experience that we have? Objectively, We have thoughts and we have perceptions. Even the memories we have come in the form of a perception. Instance, We either remember what someone says and it comes in the form of a sound-like quality. We remember someone's face, It comes in this form of a colour-like, Seeing-like quality. All there is, Is thought and perception. But there's one last thing. It would be the awareness of thought and perception. Now perceptions, Let's qualify them against our definition of infinity. Do they start and end? Yes. Are they true from all points of view? No. We only need to do one of them and we see that they're obviously not infinite. What about thoughts? Do they have a start and end? Yes. Are they true from all points of view? No. Most of the time they're not even true from our own point of view. So they cannot be infinite. But now we have one culprit left. We have the awareness of experience. Interesting, The awareness of experience. Go now to your Awareness Live experience. Does it have a size? No. Does it have a start? In other words, Does it start when we do something and then stop when we do something else? Does it come and does it go continuously? No, We've never experienced that. Does it have a size and a shape? No. Okay. So it doesn't start and stop. It doesn't come and go. Doesn't have a size and a shape. Can you contain it? Can you put it in something? Can you measure it against a ruler and say it's this big or this small? No, It's immeasurable. It's got no size, Shape or form. You can't measure something without size, Shape or form. It's immeasurable. Well, That means it's unlimited to any object. Nothing can limit it. Okay. Is it true? From all points of view. Well, Absolutely. Anyone having a point of view. In fact, It would be the only thing true from all points of view, Because it's the only point of view that one can have, Is the point of view of awareness. To have a point of view that isn't awareness. You wouldn't be aware of it and it wouldn't be a point of view. Therefore, It would be something that wouldn't be contained in experience. But what we're doing here is looking for something in experience. Awareness doesn't start and stop, Doesn't come and go, Doesn't have a size or shape, Therefore is immeasurable, Therefore unlimited. It's true from all points of view because there's no one that can comprehend this question and deny it. We find that we cannot contain it because you cannot contain something zero-dimensional. Something zero-dimensional stands outside time and space. Only something with dimensions takes place in time and space because time and space is a construct relative to things that have size and shapes. If there was no size and shape, If there was no objects that give relevancy to space, There would be no experience of space. The experience of space is completely dependent upon the objects that give it reference. Likewise with time. Time. Is only relevant to something that starts and ends. Namely thought. Time is simply the superimposed calculation of distance between one thought and the next. Because the mind cannot comprehend what happens in between the timeless, Spaceless, Formless moment between a thought, It just assumes something happened and it was the passage of time. But really the passage of time is, From the point of view of awareness, Infinite, Timeless, Spaceless being. So awareness is not in time, It's not in space, It doesn't have any size, Shape, Form, Color. It's therefore zero-dimensional, Unlimited, True from all experience. Name. What would be the name we give for something unlimited, True from all experience, Inherent in all experience, Consistent in all experience, And has no possible limitation to be measured? Well, That's what we would call infinite. Like we said at the start, How many infinite things can we have? How many infinite awarenesses could we have? If we had two infinite awarenesses, Then they would both have to have a border. The border that says, This is where one awareness starts and this is where one awareness ends. But we know by experience, Awareness has no border. It has no size or shape. If it doesn't have a size or shape, It cannot have a border. Borders are for objects. Awareness is not an object. So you cannot have more than one of these. And like we mentioned, To even have one is to say too much. Is why we call it simply non-duality, Not two-ness. We try not to even use the word one as a limitation. We just say it's not two. Basically saying it's not one, But it's definitely not two. And if it's definitely not two, It can't be three or four or five. You see, We're trying to define it in the best way we can. That's why we're using negative terms, Terms that negate. That's what infinity is. It's not the experience of having infinitely large something. It's transcendent of the realm where things take place. That is the screen. That is what we are. The screen. If the boy was to do that investigation while he's in the movie, He would see the screen. That is the experience of the screen, To see that I am pure, Unconditioned awareness that is transcendent of the movie. The screen does not take place in the movie. The movie is a modulation of the screen. So now, B the screen. Be the screen primarily, That's what you primarily are. You are the screen exploring the movie. Do not be the character in the movie seeking the screen. Be the screen exploring the movie. That's what I say. When I say, Be the adventurer, Sometimes I don't qualify it with this understanding first. I just say, Be the adventurer. I don't say, Go and be infinite, Recognize your true nature, Then go and be the explorer. We can take the pathway to being the explorer, The adventurer, Without having to actually see true nature like we have done in this moment, Because we are the screen. We naturally have the qualities of the screen so long as we can understand the attitude and the representation of the explorer or the adventure, Which is why I always qualify it with a short description of the two, The seeker and the explorer. The seeker is always cutting through the jungle with his machete, Crying every time there's a problem. The adventurer has got his little, What are those little things that you hold in front of your face when you read, Like old people when they read a magazine and classic cartoons, Or the detectives hold a magnifying glass. Looking through a little magnifying glass, Exploring exploring all the jungle, All the butterflies. A challenge comes his way. He's excited because, Wow, Another challenge, Another time, A new adventure to embark on. It's just constantly exploring. The seeker is avoiding the jungle. He doesn't want the jungle. He just wants to find whatever it is he thinks he wants. He doesn't even know what he wants. He just thinks he has a rough idea and he'll know when he sees it. The adventurer is just exploring, Just pure curiosity, Passion and devotion to the experience. That is the quality of God. Pure interest, Curiosity, Passion, Just wanting to explore experience. This is how the screen experiences the movie directly, Just with pure loving curiosity. Notice the screen doesn't avoid the movie. Screen doesn't go, I'm the screen, There we go, Screen, Screen, Screen, Screen, Screen, I'll just screen all day. The screen is very, Very focused on what is going on in the movie, But the screen is free. Everything that goes on in the movie. That's the difference. The screen knows nothing in the movie contained my piece. Nothing in the movie can disturb my happiness.
