The Path to Non-separation is an equational contemplative language designed to guide you through an exploration of personal, impersonal, and transpersonal experiences of the self.
By intellectually and experientially mastering a series of thirty equations, you will come to know deeper and deeper identities from which you can live in and relate to your world, starting with a fresh understanding of life’s simple surface moments and ending with the relaxed complexity of not only becoming but being lived as the totality.
As stated above, The Path to Non-separation is divided into three broad categories: The Personal, The Impersonal, and The Transpersonal. Each of these categories is further divided into ten successive stages with every stage represented by an equation, the equation functioning as a meditative practice that teaches you how to inhabit a specific identity structure.
The identity structures progress in a developmental fashion, each newly-found structure engulfing and sustaining its predecessors. The equations reveal this progressive activity as each succeeding equation requires notational inheritance from all previous stages as the foundation of its own existence. What this means for you is that as you move along the path, you will progressively register more advanced modes of being that build on one another until you reach Non-separation, a return to the separative world awakened and participative.
Today, many of the readily available spiritual teachings attempt to support you in making one momentous leap from egoic embeddedness to full-on transpersonal awakening. For as long as it takes, you are invited to rest in your confusion as you learn from a teacher who steadily talks from or points to the degree of their own attainment in the hopes that you will remain committed and one day understand their supreme point of view. No experiential map with intermediary stepping stones is taught to help you travel with clarity from where you are to where you want to be.
The Path to Non-separation addresses this issue by providing you with a step-wise approach to awakening where rather than being encouraged to bound over what feels like a vast chasm you are tasked with completing a sequence of attainable transformations called “micro-jumps”. Micro-jumps are the small, manageable identity shifts you perform as you release one stage’s identity structure and embody the next. Each micro-jump is achieved when you properly translate one of thirty instructional equations that inform you how to locate and maneuver pre-existing psychological objects in a way that uncovers emergent manifestations of the self.
By working with the accrual of these tangible accomplishments, you are able to logically postpone awakening as a nebulous goal knowing your moment of realization is waiting for you at the terminus of a well-lit path and will naturally arrive as the product of the final micro-jump you take.
