that light

There comes a point when the idea that ‘everything is consciousness’ is actually seen on a level other than thought. It’s suddenly understood on an intuitive level, or in Nisargadatta’s terminology, it’s apperceived intuitively. It dawns, and that light is you!

Of course!, the mind says, when it returns from its hiatus. And then it goes about creating the story in which it owns that understanding. Business as usual, but this time, the apperception is there, and it sees the mind for what it is. Just thoughts arising within the apperception which is consciousness, the omnipresent intelligence-energy of awareness.

And so the mind is instructed to tell that story.
