But in every ornament you will find gold only. Without Brahman the gold, you will not be able to find any ornaments. You can say that for the wise ones there is total elimination of of names & forms (atyantabhAva) in ornaments all they see is gold. In other words, you the Existence-Consciouness-Bliss ( Asti-Bhati-Priyam) Atma is the gold that is pervaded in objects or the ornaments in such a manner that there is nothing apart from gold (that is you). There is not a single element of any ornament in this names & forms based world that is not occupied, pervaded or apart from the gold that is Brahman. Similarly, you the name & forms based substratum on which the world is superimposed (namrupatmak vivarta-upadan-karana), Existence-Consciousness-Bliss Atma is pravishtha in the imaginary, names & forms based objects and also apravishtha. When objects in this world are formed from five elements one can say that these elements actually enter ( pravishtha) in the objects and one can also say they are do not enter ( apravishtha) in the objects – like gold in ornaments is pravishtha or also apravishtha mud is pravishtha in the pot or also apravishtha the rope is pravishtha in the illusive snake or also aprvishtha the witness of the dream is pravishtha in the dream world or aprvishtha.

Hey shis hya remember that you are Self-illuminated Atma. This is a dialog between guru ParAshara and shishya Maitreya from Swami VishudhAnanda’s book “PakshapAta-rahita Anubhava”. Pravishtha and apravishtha (Does Brahman actually enter an object?) Is this correct? Continue reading → Posted in Q and A Pravishtha and apravishtha (Does Brahman actually enter an object?) I believe that Advaita Vedanta is saying that somehow nothing exists other than consciousness and thus the objects that appear (including the mind and subtle realm) are not made of matter but rather are ‘made of’ consciousness. So my question is: Is Self-realization something you discover in your heart like a presence of happiness or of a consciousness that doesn’t ever come and go but only seems to be obscured by thoughts? Or is self-realization the knowledge that all the objects in the world and mind are made of only consciousness, in the way that dream objects are made of dream-consciousness? It gets covered up by my thoughts and emotions, but it’s always there.Īnother set of realizations involve a sense that the world of objects is not actually there because the objects are made of consciousness rather than matter. It’s very deep and real and it does not come and go like an experience. One set of realizations involves a sort of inner presence that reveals itself like existence-consciousness-limitless, and I feel it as present in my heart region. But when I have this sort of realization (I have a lot of them), I can’t tell whether I am realizing Brahman or something else. Q: I know that Brahman is not an object I can find I think of it more like the realization that I am the tenth man (you know this story I assume). Can Knowingness ‘be’ in a vacuum? Is Its presence not dependent on a knower who would have been the locus for It? In the usual parlance, knowingness is that which interlinks the ‘knower’ with the ‘known.’ With the two end-members being absent, can ‘Knowingness’ exist on its own independent of the other two? Continue reading → Posted in Ramesam | Tagged brahman, consciousness, endpoints, Infinity, Knowingness, Knowledge, Liberation, Upanishad, world The Real Vision It has neither a beginning (origination) nor an end (culmination).įrom a common sense point of view, it may be argued that “Knowingness” cannot exist on Its own in the absence of a knower and something to be known. But brahman, The Knowingness, as the Upanishad says is Infinite, without limitations or edges or endpoints. There are two endpoints for anything in this world - one is the beginning and the other is the ending. Unending Beingness and Knowingness is the nature of brahman. The taittirIya Upanishad explains brahman as:
