The dissolution of dissolution

 

Overheard on the interwebs:

>>>Pralayāntaka Bhairava, the Ender of Dissolution, is that which remains when even cosmic destruction ends.

>>>Pralayāntaka means "one who ends pralaya (cosmic dissolution)." This paradoxical name points to the consciousness that witnesses even the end of the universe. When everything dissolves, matter, energy, space, time, what remains? Pralayāntaka Bhairava is that ultimate witness, the awareness that observes even the dissolution of dissolution. He is the teaching that you are not what appears or disappears. You are the unchanging awareness in which appearance and disappearance occur.

>>>Pralayāntaka represents the philosophical principle of sakshi (witness consciousness). Even when the entire universe dissolves at the end of a cosmic kalpa, the witness remains. This is your true nature, not the body that was born and will die, not the mind that comes and goes, but the eternal observer that was never born and can never die.
