The Mind Tries to Prove That Separation Happened - 10th October 2016
Saar (Essence)
Ananta explains that the mind uses labels and the illusion of space-time to create a false sense of separation. He points out that all of infinity is present now, and movement is merely the play of attention on a single canvas of Consciousness.
The mind's attempt is ultimately to prove to you that the separation happened.
All of infinity is here now; the flow of time is just attention moving across a single canvas.
Dropping the false is not a boring nothingness; it is a living reality of profound, apparent insights.

About the labeling, if everything is from Consciousness, if everything is just one, then the mind is labeling every object individually because there's space between the objects. But if actually that space and that object is the same thing, just like the dream is one dream, but then that space is just a different quality of Consciousness? So it's really not labelable to say the difference between one—you cannot really label the difference from one object to the other and the space and...
Yes, yes. You see, so the mind's attempt is ultimately to prove to you that the separation happened. You see? So to prove to you that the separation happened, it has to show you this world of separateness. You see? And to show you this world of separateness where it says, 'Okay, that one is this one, this one is this one, this one is this one,' you see, then it starts to put labels. And with our belief, we give meaning to these labels.
Even between... yes, even between... that's why I say that somebody says, 'What about my being and her being?' I say, 'What about the space in between? Is that not the same being?' And even between like a living thing and a not living thing, there's no difference in the... that's what I'm saying. Doesn't make sense. Labeling doesn't make sense.
Doesn't make sense. Yeah, it is not the truth.
Can we live like this? Yes, we can. Then it's not possible to label things actually. Yes, but I was waiting... nothing.

Very good. So like this, we... you see, not just space but also time. How are we experiencing the movement of time? We are not actually. Okay, let's not go... all of infinity, all of infinity is here now.
But then there's no movement, Father.
There is no movement. That's what I'm saying. This now, that now, and this now is the now. Yes. Does that make sense? I mean, not to the world it won't make sense, but it makes sense. It's... see, this Oneness of time is really for the mind very, very confusing. You see? So one decent example, but not very accurate example, is to say that it is as if you're watching this very beautiful large canvas. You see, it is all already there, but we are using our attention to watch it in a flow. You see? So the canvas is there and the attention gives the sense of movement of space and time.
So even science has discovered this space-time continuum. If you... Einstein's theory of relativity says that if you're moving in the three dimensions, the seeming three dimensions, at a particular speed, then you're moving that much slower in the dimension of time. You see? So if I was walking, you see, time has moved slower for me than it has moved for you because you were sitting. So time and space are one, you see, continuum. So the four dimensions... and who decided this limit? Maybe this is like level four, class four, where these four dimensions are being experienced. It could be many have said they've had experience of sixteen dimensions, and we won't go too much into all that. But the fact is that in these sensory tools that we have in this realm, we seem to experience these three dimensions as if they are in space and the fourth dimension as if we move in that dimension of time. You see?
But it could be another set of sensory tools you could have where you would see that the four dimensions are visible to you as if they are space and there's a fifth dimension which is appearing as if it is time for them. So just when you... don't worry too much about this. This is like watching the painting. You start from one side of the painting and we are watching. It's a huge canvas, you see, and we are watching, watching, watching. It seems like time is flowing, but it is not flowing for the painting. It is one painting. Attention is moving in space and time and it seems like the flow of space and time is happening. It's not very accurate as an example, but this is where words are not that useful. You see, you have to rely on your own inner insights which will continue to come.
So all of you who are feeling that, 'Oh, this recognition and dropping the false is some very boring kind of nothingness, limbo-ish type of state,' it is not like that. These are the kind of insights that you will start seeing and they'll be so apparent that it is your living reality. You see, scientists are discovering the similar things after hundreds of years of research, you see, but these just come as insights to you and you see things as like this, as they are appearing. So it doesn't become boring. It is very insightful.
