Guest guest Posted September 30, 1999 Report Share Posted September 30, 1999 Avadhuta Chapter 1 Verse 4 SUE Truly the Atman alone is all, and in It there is neither division nor nondivision. It appears to me perplexing to say, "The Atman exists" or "The Atman does not exist." (comments/translation Sw Chetanananda) Neither division nor nondivision - The Atman is inexpressible. Everything in this world has been either conceptualized by the mind or expressed by speech except the Atman. No conception of division or nondivision is possible with regard to the Atman since no second object apart from It exists. For example, if a person had lived in the solar region from the beginning of his life, he would have no conception of darkness or of light.
