Self-Realization and Other Awakenings

always be pulled back into dealing with your humanity
and the human condition. You can do it now, or do it
later after years of frustrating seeking and trying to
attain the Absolute.
Next we go a little deeper, into what
Siddharameshwar called the “causal body.” This is an
extremely important experience for the foundation of
finally attaining the Absolute.
The essence of the causal body is of “ignorance” of
the absence of knowledge, otherwise known as
consciousness. The causal body, when witnessed
itself, also provides the special structure which allows
the world to be created in, for the world cannot be
seen except as spread out in three dimensions within
the flow of time. This is the inherent internal
structure of sentience to arrange all things for
consciousness to make sense of the world by creating
inner and outer space, and is called emptiness or the
Void.
The Causal Body is that Void, and to reach
awakening, Self-Realization, requires thorough
awareness of the Void on every level of being. We
must know and love the peacefulness of emptiness, of
the Void, because that peacefulness “eats” the fear,
blocking further exploration and self-acceptance.
