Building Models Based on Consciousness

There seems to be fundamentalism in non-duality when someone comes with a problem. Why not take a holistic perspective that stays open to multiple possibilities, like scientific explanations alongside non-dual ones? Rupert says: ‘It’s just the way I find myself. It’s the way I find my mind. It’s quite obvious to me and to many people here that consciousness is the only substance that is ever known. So, it’s reasonable to build a model of reality based on consciousness. I use concepts when necessary whilst acknowledging that none of the concepts I use are absolutely true. They’re not supposed to be absolutely true. They’re supposed to be evocative. I believe that the only hope humanity has is for the paradigm of unity to replace the presumption of separation. I feel no superiority. Both superiority and inferiority are egoic positions. I just feel the same as all of you.’
