The more you think about consciousness objectively the more you feel something is fundamentally wrong... in Advaita this is experienced directly sharpen the idea and it is always available to us

[kadavakooti]

Consciousness is expressing through experiences of objects. So the ladder to climb back to consciousness is by the way, of climb back to consciousness where experiencing stops completely. Then you are one with total bliss.

Beautiful conciliation by Sri Ramakrishna of Dvaita and advaita philosophies in the five points mentioned.

And this indeed is what Sai wants you to learn

Sri Ramakrishna: Ultimate Reality is both personal and impersonal no higher or lower; to realize that is the goal of all religions and all life all realizations are equal because impersonal is not alone superior, the ultimate reality is fully personal fully Krishna and fully Christ the purpose is to realize this; the differences are the different paths to realization the paths you think they are are just like the signposts the actual path is what God takes you on you are not following the road you think you are following you are following a path that is the combination of all of what God is giving you; in all this diversity, you have to think of your own path as the best, let the sects multiply but no sectarianism, Sri Ramakrishna said you can think you must think your religion is the best if you buy something you have to choose for it it is the best for you because you and it are designed for each other; as many paths that many ways, respect and learn from all and assimilate it if you eat a pancake any way it strengthens because your practice it is not that one you are thinking you are following, if you follow Advaita and Christianity and all at once the very following act itself is the path now, God is taking you on it. Love them all.

Sri Ramakrishna says both are real. Don't think too much about logic. Realize the Truth.

1:18:00 I fealt just like a child who is 5 years old looks at a video of his own self playing a stacking puzzle when he was 2 years old and gets annoyed at that child and says ... "He is not putting the puzzle right he is soo stupid" unknown of the fact it is himself much younger ! If he knows it's himself he would definitely be more kinder towards the child in the video and like he wud not charge the elephant 🐘
