ENLIGHTENMENT BY SELF-INQUIRY–pt157

[The Teaching  of Non-Duality has been adapted from Master Nome, disciple of Sri Ramana Maharshi.]

The Absolute may be regarded as something to which one will eventually return, but it is not regarded as the same as one's own state now or as one's nature. With such a view, spiritual practice is to maintain a relation to the Absolute with the knowledge that one was once part of that limitless Being and one may return to it, but, for now, one must seek to deepen one's relation to that God. The Supreme is viewed as similar to a person, yet on a grander scale, but which has left its mark, spark, or a trace of itself in the individual. With qualified dualism as one's view, spiritual practice aims at the strengthening of the relation with the Lord, the Supreme.
