“Similar question – Does the snake disappear first, and then the rope is seen, or is the rope seen first, and then the snake disappears?
Answer: There is neither time sequence nor cause and effect.
It is a simultaneous process – the ego dissolving and the ever-existing consciousness manifesting. We do it in deep sleep daily ☺️”
Consciousness knows no time, and it never leaves you hanging.
The moment the ego drops, consciousness is right there to lift you up: it’s instantaneous.
The ego is an illusion; illusion drops, and reality is right there, never gone.
