It has just occurred to me that it would be more supportive to call it "A Spiritual Adventure."
The reason is that I am coming to see that I am not exploring Non-Duality.
There is no Judy to do the exploring.
As Jean Klein would put it, exploration is happening. That's all he would say.
He would not discuss it in terms of an explorer (subject) and that which is being explored (object).
He would say that both subject and object appear within Consciousness, that they are One.
Unlike those who have realized the Truth, I still experience myself as a separate "I." In my case, the I-thought has not evaporated.
Yet, with all this exposure to the writings of Rupert Spira, Francis Lucille and Jean Klein, I am finding that my use of language is changing.
As long as I'm being this technical, I may as well admit that I now find the term "Adventure" a bit suspect too.
Adventure suggests a series of experiences that are continuous in time. It might be more helpful to use a word that has a more timeless quality.
However, if you create a blog, you have to start somewhere, so I'm not beating myself up about this.
