'Many are called, but few are chosen' - is there a way to understand this non-dualistically? Not that the called differ from the uncalled, or the chosen from the unchosen, but that being called should not be confused with being chosen. You can't will or presume your own awakening, but you can't refrain from doings so either - it is only about you and yet not about you at all. Like Kafka's parable 'Before the Law'. You can't but over-reach, and yet every over-reaching will be slapped down, sooner or later, gently or brutally, with apparent malice or irony.
