See below, from "From Water and Narcissus".
This was stated, tested and proven until and beyond Adi Da's passing.
Franklin Jones (Adi Da):
"Seeking is striving to recover what you have refused
to understand. It is painful and a self-creating
dilemma because it reinforces the idea that you do not
and cannot know.
It is not a matter of finding an answer, a truth, a belief
or a stable victory but the removal of the contradictions
which produce the search.
Life is basically relationship.
The freedom of life in relationship depends upon the
liberation of the one who is in relationship, through the
removal of the contradictions that prevent full relatedness.
The attention of free life is not toward the Self or self or
God or any particular spiritual entity, for such is only a
manifestation of strife. The attention of liberated life is
toward all relationship. It is already perfectly related.
The key mood of unliberated life is the sense of
separation. One is not liberated by any seeking for
union with self or other or any thing. One is liberated
by the removal of the self-created contradictions that
prevent relationship."
