I think that was me, actually. IME, "ignorance," "C.C.," "G.C.," "U.C." -- any "state of consciousness" is transitory, because it's claimed by a particle still believing itself to be "in" the Universe, subject to space and time and experience; only That which is the culmination of "U.C.," Brahman recognizing itSelf, is permanent, because it has always been here, just as it is, and the "I-particle" eventually gets tired of superimposing difference, distinction, intellect, upon That and surrenders into the utter perfection of what is, what has always been, what will always be.
