When we are on the Spiritual Path, we are learning to go beyond our ordinary constraints. This means finding ways to experience our nondual condition, which is a most profound realization. Practicing Guruyoga in a non-conceptual way, right from the start, will help you to start becoming accustomed to awakening, even if that seems far away at the moment. With Guruyoga, we discover who we really are, and who we are is realized when we build a strong foundation of Bodhicitta.
As I explained, there is no difference between aspiring to awaken and that inexplicable light we experience in death. The only reason we think that it is different is because we have not yet awakened.
