Knowledge and No Knowledge

[Guest guest]

Sub : MATHAJI the Knowledge and “ MAYA “-- No Knowledge

 

 

 

The imitation of the supreme Self, which is immeasurable and unconquerable, is

Maya. It is also the power of enchantment and practically it is that which is

NOT. But it keeps the whole creation in its grip of limitations. It is that

great play of Lalitha Devi- that can retard an ignorant soul as well as release

a panting soul. This power is only conquerable by Devi's grace alone --So She is

known as Maya Devi or Mayavathi.

 

 

 

The Vedic usage of Maya is mysterious and deceptive power of Shakthi of Brahman

by which the world of multiplicity comes into existence.

 

 

 

Maya is the creative power until one realises the truth of Brahman. The analogy

drawn in scriptures is mistaking a rope to a snake and when the observer

realises that it is only a rope the maya vanishes. But till that time -- there

is fear, confusion, and delusion into taking the empirical world as reality.

Other example is the magician and his tricks, while we mistake the appearance

for reality it is not so for the magician.

 

 

 

Maya is the ignorance or the darkness known as Avidya. It has the power of

concealing the reality and also of misrepresenting or distorting reality. This

power of concealing the reality is known as the Avarana Shakthi and in the Sri

Vidya Navavrana puja the Sadhak through the mantras and yantras tries to

perceive the reality -- from plurality to singularity, which is the reality.

 

 

 

In the maya world the ignorant not only fail to see the reality the AMBAAL , but

also substitute something in its place namely -- The phenomenal world. Maya is

an illusion which produces in our (mis ) understanding -- the substantial world

of real objects - persons - process etc.

 

 

 

When Mahatma Gandhiji wrote Sri Bagawaan Ramana requesting him to appeal to his

country men to fight for the Independence of India from the Britishers -- Ramana

after few days of silence, wrote back to him saying -- When there is fire on the

screen (cinema ) of what use are the fire fighters , fighting such a fire. This

explains in simple terms that how a Brahma Ghyani perceived the world around him

in terms of Maya.

 

 

 

Maya is present when, " I -- Me -- Mine " is present and all the experience that

goes with the I-ness , Me- ness and the Mine ness ,where there is the duality

-- subject and object relationship, a distinction from the real Self and Non

self -- that is the shakti of Devi the Maya shakthi.

 

 

 

This duality causes all the attachments, aversions, fears, dreams, memories,

percepts, cognition.likes dislikes and the root cause of never ending births and

rebirths. When we recognise the oneness of the reality, the Maya and all its

attributes vanishes like the disappearance of Dew when the sun rises.

 

 

 

Maya is timeless as time only arises within it. It is unthinkable for all

thoughts is subject to it and is in describable as all language results from it.

 

 

 

How do you explain the word Truth -- It can be explained as only " Truth " as if

you start explaining the truth it can not be the Truth and hence

in--explainable and when you still go to explain it is Maya.

 

 

 

In the LS Ambaal is described as " Vidya -Avidya Swarupini". She is the Singular

Shakthi with twin forms -- Vidya - the real knowledge and the Avidya -- the

wrong knowledge or ambiguous knowledge - through real knowledge one becomes

immortal with the one with immortality and due to the Avidya - the unreal or

ambiguous knowledge, the person is bound by the inherent limitation of the

ignorance.

 

 

 

The Vidya which is all about the Real Knowledge is Sri Vidya and hence She also

becomes the giver of that immortality. In the fourth chapter of devi mahatmeeyam

-- refer to the meaning of -- "Vidya Si Bhagawathy Paramahe Devi "-- and in the

first chapter -- " Sa vidya parama mukther hethu putha sanathani "
