In the normal human being, one’s personality is a small flame of consciousness or awareness. And seen from that small flame, the world appears to be a gigantic expanse of stars and planets, oceans, mountains, deserts and plains. But when this transformation of consciousness occurs, the whole picture is reversed. It is now the consciousness which becomes an ocean. It is now the consciousness which surpasses these suns and planets and mountains and oceans and plains and deserts. It is now consciousness that becomes the fundamental reality of the universe. And all that we see now, with our sensory equipment, is like an image projected on it. Consciousness now appears to be the basic reality; to be the universe in fact, and what we see—these material manifestations of the universe—are but projections of this very consciousness: we can say, like shadows, like phantoms, like a mirage floating on it.
