This perspective aligns closely with Advaita Vedanta and the teachings of Ramesh Balsekar, shifting the focus from Kant’s academic dualism to a more spiritual non-dualism.
Here is the BGT breakdown for this concept of manifestation and liberation:
Bullet Point: Reality is a "potential plenum" (an undivided whole) that appears split into "subject" and "object" only during manifestation. This creates a "pseudo-subject"—the ego or "me"—which falsely views itself as an independent observer separate from the "other."
Gist: Human suffering and bondage stem from a "glitch" in identification, where universal Impersonal Consciousness mistakenly identifies with the individual body-mind (the psychosomatic apparatus).
Tagline: Liberation is the shift from being the "me" in the world to being the Consciousness in which the world appears.
The Anatomy of Manifestation
| Concept | The Illusion (Bondage) | The Reality (Liberation) |
| Perspective | The "Me" vs. the "Other." | The undivided I-Subject. |
| Identification | With the psychosomatic apparatus. | With Impersonal Consciousness. |
| Function | Life as a struggle between entities. | Life as a spontaneous functioning. |
Note: In this framework, the "individual" doesn't actually exist to be liberated; rather, the consciousness is liberated from the illusion of being an individual.
Would you like me to compare this "Impersonal Consciousness" approach with Kant's view on whether the "Noumenon" can ever be truly realized?
