Thought and thinker are reality within the universe. The thinker
and the thought exist within the universe. The man and his experience of the
universe is reality within the waking experience. The waking experience is mere illusion on the
ultimate standpoint. Therefore, the individual experiences are part
of the illusion. Thus thought and the thinker are part of the illusion.
Positive and negative thoughts and the thinker are made of same
material. Whether one thinks rightly or
wrongly he is thinking as person. The thoughts will not rise without the
form. Without the form there are neither
thoughts nor the thinker. Thus positive
or negative thinking or right or wrong thinking are part of the physical
existence and nothing to do with ultimate truth. Experience is prior to thought. Only in waking
or dream one gets thought. Therefore one has to mentally trace the source of
the waking or dream experience in order to realize the waking experience is as
unreal as dream.
Only in religion
and yogic path one has to follow and practice. Everyone thinks he has to follow
some guru or god men. But all these
methods are full of frustrations and give no real satisfaction. Reality has no
method. Illusion has many methods, many problems and many concepts. To overcome
illusion, or concepts, one should know the source of the mind and from where
does this mind arise? “When the mind is there the universe is there. Absent of
mind absent of universe. Absent of
universe is absent of duality. Absent of duality is absent of thoughts. Thus until one becomes aware of what is mind
and what is the substance of the mind it is impossible to assimilate non-dual
truth.
To know the non-dual Reality, deeper thinking
is required. The thinking faculty ceases and becomes still when it reaches the
source of the mind. One has to realize the waking entity is false self within
the false experience from the ultimate standpoint.
Where there is no experience
then there is no duality where there no duality then there is no second thing exist
other than the self-awareness. Therefore
seeker has to go deeply in Ramana’s Path and trace and overcome the obstacles.
For the sincere and serious seekers the inner Ramana’s grace will guide until
the ignorance vanishes and he becomes aware of the fact that the diversity
[universe or Illusion] is mere mirage created out of consciousness
[Atman].
Waking experience
in which a person perceives the world doesn't exists as real in reality
because, everything is consciousness, and apart from consciousness there is
nothing in the waking experience.
Whatever is thought
within the waking experience makes one something other than what he is. When
the waking experience ends, what happens? It is consciousness alone prevails
without the three states.
Awakening is nothing but a complete, perfect understanding and assimilation of what is what. A clear cut understanding of a ‘what is what’ is awakening. Reality is not to be achieved; it is there as it is. After this perfect understanding assimilation and realization, nothing is required.
Awakening is nothing but a complete, perfect understanding and assimilation of what is what. A clear cut understanding of a ‘what is what’ is awakening. Reality is not to be achieved; it is there as it is. After this perfect understanding assimilation and realization, nothing is required.
And we expect "awakening" to be some great, mysterious happening! "Reality is not to be achieved; it is there” as it is, as unchangeable existence within the changeable illusion.
