False nothing leads to false everything; and real nothing leads to real everything. False nothing is linked to false everything; and real nothing is linked to real everything. Eventually false nothing ends in false everything, and real nothing ends in real everything. In duality false nothing is false everything. In unity real nothing and real everything are one.
Baba commented “If you listen seven tines, there is a chance of your beginning to understand. Or you might lose yourself in nothing. What is the Real Nothing? There is a difference between nothing and the Real Nothing. Real Nothing means not even nothing. On the 6th plane, one sees nothing but God everywhere; one sees nothing and everything. There is still duality: the seer and the seen. The seer sees nothing but God. When the seer crosses the 6th plane with the help of a Perfect Master and is pushed across the abyss, his experience is of an infinite vacuum. It cannot be described; there is neither seer nor seen; not nothing—not everything; it is Real Nothing. But this Real Nothing is immediately followed by Union with God Who is everything. The vacuum is infinite and it must be filled by the infinite. That is the experience when one is pushed into the 7th plane. So even saints of the 6th plane of consciousness who see God everywhere, do not know what the Real Nothing is.
"About answering questions on this discourse: to tell you the truth, I don't like questions and answers. From the beginningless beginning I asked one question, Who am I?' and I gave one answer, 'I am God.' All other questions and answers do not interest me. Still, to please you, I will listen to questions and answer them. Harry is full of questions!”
Do persons on the spiritual planes of consciousness take birth having consciousness of the same plane? Yes, but the consciousness is very gradual,'* as when a person of gross-consciousness dies and is reborn with consciousness of the gross world. The child gradually becomes aware, as it grows older, of the same old gross world according to past experiences of the gross. A child born with consciousness of a certain plane is not all at once conscious of the plane. The plane unfolds very gradually as the child gradually grows. Later
