State

There is no question of experiencing.
You are that state only.
-Nisargadatta

In the clarity of seeing what you are,
how can there be a higher state?
-Josh Baran

Creatures are subject to "states,"
but the gnostic has no "state,"
because his vestiges are effaced
and his essence is annihilated
by the essence of another
and his traces are lost in another's traces.
-Abu Yazid al -Bistami
