Converging to absolute reality

First recognize the infinite in any one thing..it may be nature (the sky, the sun, the sea) or may be a person (a guru, a mythological person,a loved one) and then recognize the same qualities and the same infinity in others, one by one.

In other words

1. See infinity in one
2. See the same infinity in another
3. See infinite infinities
4. See these infinite infinities in one (the self)

These can be likened to 4 dimensions.The only real dimension is the fourth, which we refer to as absolute reality.

This might seem like a very long process, but it is synergistic. Once you start off and get to a certain point (while always being aware of the truth,and the process, and of the role of each point as a step), the process will sustain itself.
Meanwhile at each stage you will have a different identity as perceived by others.But as long as you are aware of your true identity(the sum of infinite infinities), you shall not identify with any of these temporary identities (which others will perceive you to be)
At any step, it is crucial to view the step only as a means to the end and not start identifying with it.This can kill the synergy and set you back. This is not so easy because each step will bring with its own infinity,magic and power(all illusion), which will give ego gratification.At each step you have to reject the ego and temporary gains and choose the self,in order to converge.
This is what is meant by death (of the ego). Therefore, in order to become absolute reality, you will have to die infinite times.

These infinite deaths can occur over a period of time varying from infinite lifetimes to a few days to a moment (of enlightenment)
