Hi Jed,
Is Maya clever enough to mimic formless awareness?

Hi there:
Welcome to the forum and thank you for your questions.
My sense of what, who, how and why Maya is...mmm.... well, I
consider it to be pretty profound.... but my awareness of
''mimic formless awareness'' is about as vague as what I assume
''mimic formless awareness'' means. Responding to you would be
meaningless without a better shared/mutual understanding of what
you mean by those words.
But that's all just fancy words for ''tell me more'' and then I
will do my best to share something of value back.
Love ya, Jed.

What I am trying to ask is if an experience of nothingness, only
awareness whilst contemplating could be in any way non genuine
or self induced.
What specifically would you need to know in order to offer an
opinion?

Well... let me see what I can do. I think you are asking how an
experience of nothingness could be... experienced, when there is
nothingness and by implication, nothing there to experience the
nothingness. If there is nothing there to experience
nothingness, then who would know that it was being experienced.
It's a good point, and in my experience, there have been a few
variables on the point, but the experience of nothingness is
usually experienced when somethingness, i.e., awareness returns.
It's usually, at least in my experience, come into my awareness
after the fact, it's almost like a ''what was that?'' or ''where
did I go?''. If one is genuinely in the experience of
nothingness for any length of time, they will find they are
quite disfunctional, like very, very disfunctional because what
is there to be functional?
Now, your expereince may be different, I always make that clear.
Whatever you experienced, I would suggest you let go of any need
to understand or validate it. Just enjoy the entertainment.
Love ya, Jed.

Yes, well spoken as that is all I can ever do with a student,
try to facilitate remembering, but remembering of only one
thing, what they are in Truth.
Love ya, Jed.
