        I also have found it helpful to act as-if they profoundly reflect one another in ways that illuminate each.

        Yes. Which is quite different than saying that your meditation experience proves the Eternal Truth that the world is only pure consciousness.

        I think you go to far in claiming that 1st and 3rd person realities have nothing to do with one another. Since the idea of objective truth arises in human consciousness and nowhere else, they must be related.

        I intentionally go too far, in the hopes of breaking through the solipsistic daze of neo-advaita.

        My most loved. Except that I have an argument for ‘everything is not separate’ based on ecology, not QM. =Different things are not separate. Every thing is linked interdependently. Does not mean ‘every thing is the same’ or one.

        Thanks, Shaun. There are lots of ways to flesh out the skeleton here, and that is one of the more interesting ones.

        This is just a natural consequence of letting eastern and western enlightenments interact for long enough. Oneness and separation are perspectives, "reality" does and must exist as both. I'm with you. Your podcast is the only one that really gets this.

        But I do think it’s a helpful perspective to act as-if they have nothing to do with one another.

        Not surprising. Our grip on concepts - nonduality, physicalism, theism, atheism - is tenacious; our very lives seem to depend on it. So, what I would add to your suggested experiment for "enlightened nondual masters" is this: Try this experiment. But I bet you won't.
