The Stuff the Universe Is Made Of

Friday 13 September 2024

Direct Statement of the Absolute Truth

A woman expresses her gratitude for the retreat and asks about Ajātivāda, the Vedantic teachings of non-origination. Rupert explains that Ajātivāda represents the highest truth, where God knows nothing and experiences nothing – there is no universe, not even its appearance. God’s only experience is the knowledge ‘I am’. In contrast, another teaching called Vivartavāda accepts the appearance of the universe as an illusion and explores it. All teachings occur within Vivartavāda, while Ajātivāda is a direct statement of the absolute truth, not a teaching.
