You are a subject, a self, a seer-of-objects.  Your body is the object that allows you to see objects through your bodily eyes and nerves and brain at the optical center at the back of your brain.  This is why a blow to the back of the head can cause blindness.  Did you know that?  Visual perception is at the back of your head in the visual perception center.  Therefore the whole sensory environment or world that you see is nowhere but the back of your brain!  This is neurocognitive non-duality.  Get clear about this!

The next point is that your body is the first object you see at the back of your brain, so your entire body is actually nowhere but the back of its brain as it “sees” itself.  Your body-object is simply neurocognitively interpreting itself as your body.  You, the seer, cannot truly objectively see your body as it really is because you are using your body to “see” your body.  Visual perception is not Absolute Reality, God or any other ultimate conceivable entity.  How can an instrumental object see itself objectively?  Try to be more conscious of this dilemma before you read further.

Human beings are deluded bodily so-called “seers” who share common hallucinatory optical illusions that they call “The Real World”.  Just a little thought about optical cognition will cause the so-called objective-reality-of-the-world to collapse.  This explains why there is very little inquiry and thinking about the realism of visual perception.  You, just like everybody else, are going about keeping busy in an imaginary world projected like a hologram from the back of your head.  You do not understand consciousness.  You really don’t.  You are deluded.

Everything you see is at the back of your head in your visual assemblage center in the rear brain.  Yet, even that location is based on the holographic projection from that center.  So it is itself a projection function from an unknown location.  The brain is just its nearest imaginary topological orientation of object projecting false object.  So where oh where is the actual assemblage center that puts together and projects the world we see?

Certain people in Mexico with subtle perceptual ability (extrasensory perception) have been investigating the Visual Reality Problem for centuries.  In the subtle world, they discovered a subtle radiant egg of luminosity associated with the physical body but yet transcending it.  They then perceived a glowing ball of perceptual projection at the back of that luminous egg which seems to project alternatively either the so-called physical world or the so-called subtle world.  So they believed they had located the real center of visual perception there in the subtle world.  They called it, the Assemblage Point.  But unfortunately this is just a subtler pseudo-objective projection caused by the subtle instrumental object of visual perception.  So, there is the First Attention of visual perception seemingly at the back of the brain and the Second Attention of subtle visual perception at the back of the subtle “egg” that seems to surround the physical body.

The Mexican Seers as well as certain Yogis in the East discovered a Third Attention where the Assemblage Point moves beyond the subtle into the time-space causal world as a “Bubble of Perception”, a “Cluster of Alternative Selfhoods”, and what some Siddhayogis call the Blue Pearl, sometimes believing it is the highest state and like Muktananda, deludedly trying to assert that his causal body of Third Attention is the more transcendental Fourth Attention.  So, where is the center of visual perception in the causal bubble of perception?  That seems to be like a bright white star at the back of the blue bubble.  But that too is just an instrumental star-of-consciousness that can be detached from the entire bubble of perception, the blue pearl or causal body of Third Attention.  This is where we leave those Mexican Seers behind and enter a Fourth Attention of advanced Yogis.

Where, then is the center of visual perception within a detached White Star of Superconscious Fourth Attention?  And, is it final or is there another state of Beyond-the-Fourth, Turiyateeta?

Beyond-the-Fourth is like a Black Hole within the White Star of Fourth Attention.  Because it is black and somewhat resembles a Shivalinga, advanced Yogis of the Lingayat Tradition in India called it Atmalinga, the Linga that is one’s own Supreme Self of Shivahood beyond the mere Atman or Self of the White Star Fourth Attention.  But is this Black Hole Fifth Attention final?  Oh no!  It is rumored that there actually is a Sixth Attention and even a Seventh.  Of course, all this becomes increasingly incomprehensible, inaccessible and nameless.  Perhaps it is enough for you to know that you are presently living in a bullshit false reality, a world that has no real top or even a real bottom.  So, like the poet Rimbaud, I have to say that I piss on your “Real World” from a great height!  Even where you imagine you have great subtle perception like those Mexicans and others, it is still next-to-nothing.  So, come off it and get more real about all this!  We are just getting started, getting warmed up.
