The Absolute cannot really be known. - Mooji

The Absolute cannot really be known.
It cannot be known phenomenally like one thing knowing another thing for it is not an object of any sort.
It cannot be known like that because you, yourself, are It.
Your core being is that Absolute Being—absolutely.
You have been thinking that you are a particular kind of person from a particular country, and that you have been meditating and practising to reach the Absolute. But the one who is apparently doing all these things is just an identity that is created or imagined in the Absolute.
It is not the Absolute.
The Absolute, which is unchanging Awareness, is behind all of this.
Actually it is not even behind anything, and it is also not in front of anything; it is neither in the middle of anything nor outside of anything.
None of these terms apply to It.
And yet it is not a mystery.
If it is a mystery, then for whom is It a mystery?
The one for whom it is a mystery is merely an appearance arising in pure Awareness.
From the realm of the mind the Absolute can never be grasped.
No one can grasp it.
To be able to comprehend something that is not inside the mind's bubble is almost impossible.
It is similarly difficult for the consciousness that has assumed the human form to be what It is, to see through the illusion that It is not the body form but pure awareness.
This could be said to be the highest challenge or invitation in life: to discern the real from the unreal and to discover one's eternal nature.
When you are guided by a true master/teacher or the grace of God/Self, it all becomes sublimely simple.
If my words resonate with you, then take what I just said and leave everything else; go home and don’t let go of what I’ve told you.
Everything needed is encapsulated in these words.
Keep thinking about them, keep contemplating them and they will guide you home and set you free.
As this flower opens up its fragrance inside you, It is going to blow off everything that is untrue.
