Adyathmic Discussions-131




Q:- Humanity will continue to have an I.. Without an I there is no communication possible. 'The True Self' is just another I and an ultimate standpoint is equal to the prison of reasoning which is - also = based on the notion of 'I...

A: - Humanity is part and parcel of the illusion. ‘I’ and ‘I Am’ is the centre of physical existence. Until ‘I’ or ‘I Am’ is there the universe or mind is there, until the universe is there we all exist experiencing the duality as reality.

The communication happens within the duality and the duality is not reality from the ultimate standpoint. When the true self is not limited to ‘I’ or ‘I am’ but it pervades the whole physical existence or universe then how one can refer ‘I or ‘I am’ which cease to exist without the form or universe.  Thus the self is within the ‘I’ but it is without the ‘I’.  Holding ‘I’ or ‘I am’ as self will lead one towards intellectual speculation thus it has to be avoided.   Thus ultimate truth has be grasped and realized mentally and it is possible when we rectify our reasoning base from form to formless.

Panchadashi:-
The Atman is the witness-consciousness that experiences the action, the actor, and the world of separate things. It is like a light that illuminates everything in a theatre, revealing the master of ceremonies, the guests, and the dancers with complete impartiality. Even when they all depart, the light shines to reveal their absence.
