The person, and his
experience of the the world and his sense of form,time and space are
made of single essence, which is formless consciousness. Until the
diversity dominates the ignorance prevails. Until ignorance is there,
the form,time and space prevails as
reality. until the form,time and space prevails as reality , the
experience of birth,life ,death and world experienced as reality.
Until the birth,life,death and world is experienced as reality one
remains in ignorance of the non-dual reality or Brahman. Thus perfect
understanding is needed to realize what is what. thus seeker has to get rid of the mental cobwebs which is blocking his realization. All the cobwebs of mental blockades are because of the accumulated knowledge. thus careful analysis is required before accepting anything as truth.
The consciousness is the maker and the preserver of the
mind, which is in the form of universe. Universe appears as waking and dream and
disappears as deep sleep. The Self-Knowledge is the foundation of all physical
based knowledge.
By knowing the fact that, the consciousness as the true
self of which all three states becomes known?
Two kinds of knowledge must be known. They are the spiritual
Knowledge and the physical knowledge. Of these
two, the physical knowledge is of the worldly life. And the spiritual [self] Knowledge is that by
which the ultimate truth is attained.
By means of the Self- Knowledge, the Gnani behold
everywhere consciousness, which otherwise cannot be seen or seized, which has
no root or attributes, no eyes or ears, no hands or feet; which is eternal and
omnipresent, all—pervading and extremely subtle; which is imperishable and the
source of the mind, which appears as waking and dream and disappears as deep
sleep.
As the spider sends forth and draws in its thread, as
plants grow on the earth, as hair grows on the head and the body of a living
man—so does mind, which is in the form of universe arise from the Imperishable
consciousness.
Ignorant , dwelling in darkness, but the intellectuals in their own conceit and puffed up with vain
scholarship, wander about, being afflicted by many ills, like blind men led by
the blind.
People, immersed in ignorance in various ways, flatter
themselves, saying: We have accomplished life's purpose. Because these
performers of karma do not know the Truth owing to their attachment, they fall
from heaven, misery— stricken, when the fruit of their work is exhausted.
Ignorant, regarding religious rituals and humanitarian
works as the highest, do not know ultimate truth. Thinking of their good work,
with a motive to get reward for it in the next life or next world they remain ignorant of higher truth.
Let a seeker, after having examined the mind and its
substance that are gained by inquiry, analysis and reasoning, acquire freedom
from experiencing the illusion as reality: nothing that is eternal can be
produced by what is not eternal. In order that he may understand assimilate and
realize that Eternal consciousness.
The seeker who has intense
urge to know the truth , whose has the humility to listen and whose is receptive, who does not use his
accumulated knowledge as yardstick, will
be able to understand ,assimilate and realize the Self- Knowledge, through
which one knows the consciousness, which is formless and nondual in its nature.
Consciousness is the self—luminous and formless soul,
uncreated and existing both within and without. Consciousness is devoid of life,
devoid of mind, pure and higher than the supreme Imperishable.
From consciousness are born the three states. From consciousness come mind, which contains the oceans and
the mountains, rivers of every kind of plants and flavours.
The mind alone is the universe. And consciousness is the substance and witness
of the mind. The consciousness, hidden within the three states — He who knows
this ultimate truth will be able to cross the threshold of duality.
The consciousness dwells in the mind. Mind is form, time and space. Without the mind
there is no form, no time and no space. Consciousness is the support of mind;
for in consciousness is centre of the mind in which everything that moves,
breathes and blinks. One has to know the consciousness that to be as the true
Self and beyond the understanding of the egocentrics.
