Conscious Witness and Experiencer

[Guest guest]

Namaste all -

 

In this Shrishti (Creation) -

Jnatha (experiencer) is vijnanamaya-kosam;

Manomaya-kosam itself is Jnanam(experience);

Sound,touch etc are Jneya vishaya (objects for

perception);

These three are absent prior to Shrishti.

- Vedanta pamca dasi 11:15

Role of witness - shows the three all at once (except

in deep sleep) -- also from pamcadasi, have to look up

the exact reference. Showing all at once and identity

of the three is different, by the way, though

eventually one may lead to the other ?

 

Further, regarding the witness,

Srikrishna tells Arjuna -

In that Anandam that is devoid of duality and that

which is not sleep, that Anandam is Brahma-Anandam.

- Vedanta pamca dasi 11:100

*******************************

That which is devoid of duality means, that which is One Whole and Complete.

That which is not sleep means, that which is Awake, unbroken, and perpetual

Self Seeing consciousness. That anandam is Brahma Anandam means, that upon

Realizing Atma as Sat-Chit-Ananda, Brahman is Realized as Sat-Chit-Ananda,

there being no difference between Atma and Brahman.

 

In the practice of self-inquiry, vijnanamaya kosha dominates. In the

practice of meditation, manomaya kosha dominates.

 

Love to all
