"<p>... The self remains still, but it is liberated, that is, it goes through the process of liberation, which inevitably takes place over time.

The liberation of consciousness unfolds over time: it was greater and becomes less, or it was less and becomes greater. But consciousness is one, it is unchanging and it alone exists.</p>"
