In illusion the self is in burden and bondage. In reality it is free
from all burden and bondage. One cannot understand what is truth because of the
physical awareness. One when one becomes aware of the fact that the physical existence is mere mirage through wisdom one becomes aware of the fact that there
is no second thing exists other than the soul, which is in the form of consciousness. Thus consciousness alone is real
and all else is mere mirage created out of consciousness.
Consciousness the true Self is hidden
and pervades in everything and everywhere in the three states as their formless
substance and witness; but it is seen by Gnanis through their one—pointed and
subtle intellects.
seeker should understand the fact that, all the experiences of the three states are created out of Consciousness.
Seeker has to arise! awake and
learn to know the fact that, the experience of
duality [waking/dream] is created out of Consciousness, without
understanding this fact , there is no unity in diversity. The path of truth is like
the sharp edge of a razor, so it is hard to tread and difficult to cross
without perfect understanding and without perfect reasoning.
Having realized Consciousness as
self , which is soundless, intangible, formless, undecaying and likewise
tasteless, eternal and odourless; having realized that which is without
beginning and end, beyond and unchanging—one is freed from experiencing the
duality as reality.
It is through Consciousness that one
perceives all objects in sleep or in the waking state. Having realized the
vast, all—pervading Consciousness, one enters into non dual tranquility.
He who knows the soul as true
self, the formless witness of the
three states, as Consciousness, free from experiencing the past ,present and the future as reality.
True self is undistorted Consciousness. One who
meditates on Consciousness alone is free
from experiencing the pain and pleasure as reality, liberated from the bonds of
ignorance; he becomes free from experiencing the diversity as reality.
The soul, which is in the form of consciousness when
identifies with the body and the
universe dwelling in it by experiencing the duality as reality. If it is torn
away from the body and the universe , is
freed from it, what then remains?
Whatever prevails is the true self,which non dual Consciousness.
The soul, which remains awake and witnesses all the three states which comes an
goes in succession . Soul indeed is the pure awareness without the body
and the universe it alone is called the
Immortal. All three states are contained in Consciousness and none can pass
beyond.
