Journeys in Consciousness (Talk 4 of 4)- Part 1 of 2

In the fourth talk of the series, Shaykh Fadhlalla reminds the audience of the three main issues he outlined previously and how each relates to the five-journey model. Continued disclosures on patterns and design of nature, and the arrow of time using metaphors and examples in human life to further relay how the compendium levels of existence and reality are connected and encapsulated in Unity, connecting appropriately with the different stages of the evolutionary arc in consciousness and the state of continuation after awakening: living with intimate awareness of apparent dualities, yet in dynamic awareness and perception of cosmic reality. An anthology of aphorisms from a selection put together by all the participants are read and discussed relevant to the Journey’s, which Shaykh Fadhlalla comments on and expands. These indications are only to help us see, through apparent otherness and the illusion of independence, perpetual unity.
