The mind
eludes measurement; therefore it cannot be studied or analyzed with scientific instruments
as science does with other physical things. But the scientific method can be
applied to it apart from scientific measurement. The scientist is not aware of the fact that,
he is searching within the mind, for the mind, with his mind.
Whatever
object he is aware of within the waking experience is the mind itself,
everything in the waking/dream is nothing but mind. If there is no mind, then
there is no experience. If there is no experience then there is no waking/dream. If
there is no waking /dream, then there is nothing but non dual Consciousness,
the true self.
No one knows
the length and breadth of the mind. One does not know where it begins or ends. One
cannot say where it stops. No one has seen their own mind, or others mind. Yet everyone
talk of my mind, his mind, as though each mind was tagged and separated.
The mind is not limited; one cannot measure it
or allot it to separate individuals; that it is everywhere because the whole
waking/dream is nothing but mind.
The reality which shines fully, without waking or dream , not only when the waking or dream is known but also when the waking or dream is not known, is real form of the soul or true self.
The consciousness is present equally within and without the mind, is the supreme primal reality. Its form is silence and final and un-obstructable state of true knowledge. Seeker has to know that non dual wisdom alone is non-attachment; non-dual wisdom alone is purity; non-dual wisdom is the attainment of ultimate truth ; non-dual wisdom which is devoid of forgetfulness of Self alone is immortality; non-dual wisdom alone is everything.
“Self” is in the form of awareness. Awareness is another name for the Self. Since “Self “is awareness there is no need to attain or cultivate it. All that has to do is to give up being aware of other things other then the “Self”. That is of three states. If one gives up being aware of them then pure awareness alone remains and that is the “Self”.
“Self “is itself aware of dual and non-dual experiences. There is no duality in reality. Duality is due to the ego and is only relative. Relative knowledge requires a subject and an object, whereas the awareness of the “Self “is absolute and requires no object.
