From my POV, bindus or tigles as they're called in Tibetan are a natural manifestation of our own Wisdom-energy. While they can be different things, like the essences of prana running in various subtle channels, from the POV of the non-dual state, they are a part of how that state develops and manifests within itself. If one can integrate the non-dual state well enough, these will develop into mandalas and tend to be "self interacting". > I assume by the center of time and space, the starting point, you mean > Consciousness aware of Itself and not some reference to big bang / and > or singularities.

Exactly why I made the comment "good luck with that". The non-dual state cannot have a beginning, be a point, be a structure or have an end. If so, it is not your everpresent non-dual condition which was "yours" always. If we are cultivating a state with a beginning or an end or a structure, no matter how high falutin' it may seem, it will not be helpful when we are dying. And in my experience will make for a real rough ride (to put it nicely).
