Shedding the World

To realize the Self is to see everyone and everything to be within and not without. … More Shedding the World
Author: toomajj
I love metaphysics and nonduality! My passion is a scavenger hunt in western and eastern philosophies and spiritual traditions to find the commonalities among them. I have found that one and the same truth is expressed in all of them, and that they all differ only in the outward form of their expressions. My search is primarily inspired and shaped by Vedanta Metaphysics and Husserlian Phenomenology, particularly Husserl's method of Phenomenological Reduction which allows one to access the transcendental dimension of consciousness. I started my blog NOEMAYA in 2013 to share my findings and experiences. I also started a book series on nonduality and published my first book called "Nondual Perspectives on Quantum Physics" in 2014. I have a degree in theoretical physics from the University of Maryland and currently teach physics and mathematics to high school students.
Science admits: Big Bang hasn’t happened yet and you are not real
11 Apr 2022
None of what you see is real. According to the law of quantum theory, our universe is only real from the inside. For an outsider, it cannot have happened yet. You can step outside of the universe and see for yourself. For real! Meditation will take you there if you do it right and enough. … More Science admits: Big Bang hasn’t happened yet and you are not real

The Direct Path to Spiritual Realization
4 Apr 2022
The direct path toward spiritual realization is easier than advertised. All that one needs to do is to sit and do nothing! It’s the hardest habit to overcome, to do nothing, but it’s the easiest thing to do (or not to do) once we find the zone. Read more… … More The Direct Path to Spiritual Realization
The Sliding Doors and The Eternal Now
1 Apr 2022
There is an invisible door right here and right now, opening and closing all day, beyond which bliss and eternal life await us. To cross, one needs only drop “the doing.” … More The Sliding Doors and The Eternal Now
The Garden of Eden: Paradise Buried Alive
31 Mar 2022
I am lost in some strange neighborhood of my mind; there are so many buildings and high-rises in every direction that I have lost my sense of orientation. I don’t know how I ended up here. It is strange like a dream: I have somehow naively accepted the inception and reality of this place but … More The Garden of Eden: Paradise Buried Alive
Pursuit of Happiness & The Life of Meaning
28 Mar 2022
Happiness or meaning! Which would you choose? Happiness is about how we feel, physically and mentally, so its attainment is a matter of attention to one’s self. Meaning, on the other hand, is about how we are spiritually oriented toward the other, an activity that by nature must aim at something beyond and greater than … More Pursuit of Happiness & The Life of Meaning
The weather small-talk: A cry for connection
26 Mar 2022
My meditation sessions are sometimes blissful, sometimes chaotic, sometimes going absolutely nowhere. They are also sometimes insightful, flashing against my mind creative or spiritual ideas that I want to write down but have to mindfully, and painfully, wait until the end of the meditation to do so. Sometimes these flashing ideas, however novel, are very … More The weather small-talk: A cry for connection
