NONDUALITY AND CHANNELLING



Should nonduality invalidate channelling? What is meant by this is that, hypothetically, most nonduality speakers or persons interested would, one might say, laugh the idea of channelling out of the room! If nonduality says, in its purest sense, that there is no person to begin with, and the whole drama, story, and so is made up because nothing is happening to the ‘I’ in the moment, then what might it say about channelling? It might say that the person is a dream within a story, and channelling is worse! - A dream within a dream, - doubly delusional if you will. But maybe it is all happening; surely it is, within the one single thing that is all things. So, everything must be included. Within everything, there could be, say, phoney channels, gurus, seers. Secondly there could be ones that think they are doing something real but are only playing with their own imagination and have not figured this out yet. And thirdly, there could be real channels. A true nonduality, though there could be no such thing really, would allow for such things. Of course, in as pure sense as we can get to with words, as we can indicate, nondualtiy would not be really the phoney book of channelled material or the real book of channelled material, or what the words inside them are taken to mean in an imagined consensual reality. It would be, rather, at that moment, the book, the table, the podium at which the phoney speaker is speaking and the podium at which the genuine speaker is speaking. It would be the lights, the carpet and flooring, the sounds of the birds outside the window, and/or the silence or pauses. Both groups of people have to go after their talks to get a coffee or lunch, to put petrol in their automobiles in order to get home, if that is an economic assumption, to walk to take a bus or ride a bike. It doesn’t matter because nondaily is everything so it is the tires, the spokes, the oil, the clicking of a nail that has affixed itself in a tire and is slowly channelling out the air. And what would a bird, a peace dove beautiful, or a dreadful hawk in the middle of killing something, know, care, or understand about some language in a book. Those beings, plus the grass and sky, the insects and the ants and such-like, are already enlightened.
