Does the word New describe nonduality?
Hi,
Over the years I've listened to many speak about nonduality. And hear them describe it like many things. And I've always wanted to find a word that checks all the boxes of all claims made about nonduality.
It seems to me that New checks most boxes if not all of them.
But what do you think?
Forever. Infinite. Now. Infinite, eternal. Everything. Nothing. Mystery. Unchanging. Unknowable. Beyond identity. No self. Absolute.
The word New seems to check those boxes. Especially the most common description of "Unknowable, And beyond identity. Because it is always new so its so new that one cannot even know it because it is so new. And its always so new. That we always have no knowledge of it, nor of our identity being always new aswell, in the absolute sense.
Do you think new is a good word to describe nonduality? Or not?
Is it the silver lining that connects all things? New is such an absolute unchanging thing.
EDIT: Oh I almost forgot. The most important one: Non acquivalence, no likeness and no unlikeness, no comparison, absolute. It also is described by word New. New involved a believe in linear time. Therefor I often use Unique or Uniqueness interchangably with New or Newness. Maybe Uniqueness is an even better word to describe the absolute.
But I'm curious on your perspective of these words, new, uniqueness. Do you think they uphold or are they flawed, and if so, in what way?
Thank you.
