A Gnani, no more sees division in consciousness even though he is in the midst of duality.





Just after the illusion has disappeared; the formless  soul or consciousness, the innermost self  is no more deluded to see the duality as reality. A Gnani, no more sees division in consciousness even though he is in the midst of  duality.

Just as water is described as an ice block, gold as an ornament, so is consciousness described as universe (duality).

Just as blueness in the sky, water in the mirage, are but illusory, so is the division in consciousness. Just as a castle in the air, is illusory, so is the appearance of diversity in consciousness.

Just as it is water that appears as ripples and waves or again it is water that appears in the form of cloud so it is consciousness that appears as the mind or universe.

Just as it is water that appears under the name of a snow or it is threads that appear under the name of a cloth, so it is consciousness that appears under the name of the mind or universe. This consciousness is to be known by negating the names.-- FORMLESS PATH
