Skip the pussy, and instead a QuoteForTheDay:
"Consciousness is never experienced in the plural, only in the singular. How does the idea of plurality (emphatically opposed by the Upanishad writers arise at all? .... the only possible alternative is simply to keep the immediate experience that consciousness is a singular of which the plural is unkown; that there *is* only one thing and that what seems to be a plurality is merely a series of different aspects of this one thing produced by deception (the Indian maya) - in much the same way Gaurisankar and Mt Everest turn out to be the same peak seen from different valleys."
