What is world? What is attachment and what is detachment to the soul, the innermost self, which is ever formless.




When knows the soul as the true self, than:-

What are projection and retraction, what are end and means; what are failure and success to the formless soul, which is formless and non-dual in its nature. The mirage appears and merges back into its essence is not an appearance at all.

What is the knower, the means of knowledge, the object of knowledge; what is anything or nothing to the soul which is ever formless.  Knower, knowledge, object, thing, nothing or any word one may utter is after all they are the words and words have meaning only within the mirage.  The consciousness is ever present in all the three states but as a person, one is unconscious of the consciousness because he thinks the body as his self.

When all knowing, known and knower are simultaneously mental as in dream what else is there to trouble about understanding them. Because of   considering the waking experience as reality one is incapable of understanding and assimilating the nondual truth.  

What is the distraction?What is the concentration, dullness ad delusion, happiness and sorrow to the formless soul, which is ever actionless.

As a person one may be drawn to observe his body and the world, but the Gnani is not disturbed by because they all are consciousness to him. 

 The physical attributes are nothing to do with the soul/self wrongly; all the attributes belong to the ego not the soul.  Identifying the physical attribute to the soul is the cause of the ignorance. 

What is relative? What is absolute happiness and misery to the formless soul, which is ever devoid of thought and activity?

If anything has a meaning it is only in duality. Happiness and sorrow are the nature of duality, which is mind, there differences therefore illusory on the standpoint of theformless soul, which is ultimate reality.   

What is illusion? What is ignorance? What are birth, life and death? What is world? What is attachment and what is detachment to the soul, the innermost self, which is ever formless.  

The mind and soul are one in essence ultimately. All argument about consciousness never touches it.  The soul is not the ego in this particular body but principle which holds the whole physical existence [universe], which contains everyone and everything known and unknown. All words have no place and thoughts cannot reach. Even the thought of the soul or consciousness is just illusory and contradictory, because the thought and words belong to the world of duality. 

What is activity or inactivity, liberation and bondage to the formless soul, the innermost self, which is ever immutable and indivisible.  There is no division into nations, races and colours of kinds of men in wisdom.  It is not enough to but one must always see the formless soul [consciousness] as self and  the witness of all the three states and always realize and practice it.   Some people get glimpses of truth and lose it; so it must be established. Such fixidity is the goal. 

What is instruction and scriptural injunction? What is disciple and guru? What indeed is object of life for the formless soul, which is absolute and free from limitation? 

Life is within the world. World is within the waking or dream, the illusory limitation. When there is no second other than consciousness, then what is there for the soul , the innermost self to attain? But when one thinks the self is physical, then there is various things he will want to get and so be trouble by their lack. Hence don’t wrongly imagine the self to be the body.   

What is existence, non-existence, unity or duality? What need us there to say more? Noting from the soul because whatever seems to emanate from it, is non-different from itself.  There is no second thing other then the soul, which is in the form of consciousness. One should not mistake self [soul] for the ego. 

Those who assert world is reality, are still in elementary stages of preliminary analysis. The world is reality within the waking experience but the waking experience is mere illusion. The same way the dream world was reality within the dream experience.    The dream became unreal when waking took place same way waking becomes unreal when nondual wisdom dawns.
