The One whose heat rises as the entire universe is the One who’s heat rises as its witnessing.
This morning with eyes shut, I was presented with a contemplation of the word development and its relationship to the words Deva and Devi, and I saw that relationship as one between one’s inner self and one’s own higher Self. Then the words of my master through a reading of Pratyabhijña, I was guided to perceive the development of witnessing awareness from the essential nature of supreme presence with Self-Knowledge appearing to develop into the processes of involution of identity, AKA personhood, and then back up into evolution of identity as supreme Consciousness, as the heat that rises from the fire of our own shared eternal Being. I understand, Master, and am humbled. Witnessing awareness is your heat rising through apparent development which is an inverse to the environment. Sequential development is required in order to match the current environment!!!
The benefit of this understanding is to understand one’s own awareness not as one’s identity, but as the rising heat from our own eternal Being with no duality and not getting mired down in the development process as a vehicle for creating some form of duality. Divinity isn’t a duality at all, but fire and its heat. This has been said before but now it makes so much more sense! Gratitude!Om Namah Shivaya!
