Non-duality is really just explaining what life is through the negative. Saying it’s not this, it’s not that. It’s not this, it’s not that.
It is a heyday for spiritual teachers who don’t really understand it. They can go crazy with all the concepts it seems to be talking about.
But it’s also a total heyday for the spiritual teachers that do understand it because it’s so much easier to talk about what doesn’t exist, and try to get people to come back to reality, than it is to try to explain unity through platitudes like, “you’re the universe, you’re this, you’re that.” So there you go, the secret is out.

Each time humans come together, something really magical happens. And I mean, like, really come together. Human beings have this thing that we can do where we can actually communicate with each other, we can commune with each other, we can do things together. That’s why we’re so amazingly fabulously creative. We don’t even have …
So, attaining Enlightenment just doesn’t make any sense in the traditional way it’s taught to us.
