The Great Duality

The one certain, interpenetrating and overarching primordial reality is consciousness. We confidently claim that we are conscious individuals and yet, beyond the aggregate of all conscious individuals, a universal consciousness precedes, permeates and animates all life on earth and throughout space-time.

This notional separation of the individual and the universal appears as the Great Duality and yet we are not apart from, nor do we stand in opposition to, this universal consciousness. To realise that we are part of that is to realise that we have a universal being beyond and yet within the personal body. To embrace that universality is to access an intelligence and awareness which makes sense of our world and our place in it.
