520    This teacher of non-dualism sheds light on the essential 
       teachings of what is known as "the direct path." Almost 
       everybody believes that whatever it is we are seeing is 
       something that is outside ourselves. This leads to a most 
       vexing question for science: How is consciousness derived 
       from the brain? No neurologist or brain surgeon has ever 
       found consciousness in the brain. Spira tells us, "The non
       -dual traditions, in general, suggest that consciousness 
       is not derived from the brain. It's not a product of 
       matter. In the non-dual traditions consciousness is the 
       primary and fundamental reality. Everything is derived 
       from consciousness. Consciousness is not derived from 
       things." He acknowledges how our "perceived" experience is
       undeniably real. However, when we investigate that 
       experience more deeply we will see the dream nature of our
       perception. The essential question to be asked is: "What 
       is it that knows or is aware of my experience?" This 
       experience of our essential nature is available to us at 
       any moment. We don't have to "practice" to get there. It 
       is not something "exotic" to our being. He says, "The 
       peace for which we long, the fulfillment we [seek] lives 
       in our own being. It's accessible, available to everybody 
       in their own being." (hosted by Justine Willis Toms)
