Consciousness is continually widening its expanse. One becomes more and more conscious, but not as an individual. Ultimately there is no self-consciousness, and no self. The only reality is consciousness itself, no separation. When a person meditates deeply they lose awareness of the body and become part of this expanse of consciousness. They become aware that what they thought was their own consciousness is part of Consciousness itself.

Other Quotes by "Russel Williams"

It is possible to experience the almost unconditioned dimensions even whilst living in the world we know, on the basis that we begin to sense-feel that we are not wholly with the physical world, almost as though we are alien in the world, and don't really belong there. There is a part of us in some other place we can't identify, that feels much more comfortable.

Call it God if you wish; that's fine when you consider that, in the Hebrew sense, God means the indefinable, that which cannot be know or understood. The universal consciousness is not easy to understand, and yet we can know it.

Consciousness is what I am, not who I am. There is a big difference. The real entity is the consciousness, not me being conscious. If you can experience that, only then will you realise a degree of contentedness, because then there is nothing miss. All is well with the world.
