Guest guest Posted August 25, 2002 Report Share Posted August 25, 2002 Self-forgetting is inherent in self-knowing. Consciousness and unconsciousness are two aspects of one life. They co-exist. To know the world you forget the self - to know the self you forget the world. What is world after all? A collection of memories. Cling to one thing that matters, hold on to 'I am' and let go all else. This is sadhana. In realization there is nothing to hold on to and nothing to forget. Everything is known, nothing is remembered. - Nisargadatta Maharaj afternoon amidst the ancients beneath the translucency of green leaf canopy a child day-dreams by the edge of a stream, reverie of water skimming spiders, little languid colored carp rising to feed on time – my memories, ripples vanishing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
