The Real and the Unreal - Thoughts from KenopaniShda

[Guest guest]

Dear all:

 

In the context of real & Unreal and as seen in this jagata I reall a

shloka (If some one knows it's exact reference I would highly

appreciate it):

 

In the context of real & Unreal and as seen in this jagata I reall a

shloka (If some one knows it's exact reference I would highly

appreciate it):

 

pulli.ngaM sarva iishaanaM striali.ngaM bhagavati umaa |

vyaktaM sarva uamaaruupaM avyaktaM maheshvaraH ||

 

In kenopaniShda upaniShadakaa enquires about what is behind this what

we perceive and may help us further our understanding of reality:

 

shrotrasya shrotraM manaso mano yat |

vaaco ha vaacaM sa praNasya praaNaH ||

caxuShashcaxuH atimucya dhiiraaH |

pretyaasmaallokaat amR^itaa bhavanti || 2 ||

 

Meaning - The one who is the ear of ear, the mind of the mind, eye of

the the eye and praaNa of the praaNa. Going beyond these perceptions

j~naaniloka realize the amRta tatva (brahaman).

 

The above was the answere to the question in the previous shloka:

 

keneShitaM patati praShitaM manaH |

kena praaNaH prathamaH paiti yuktaH ||

keneShitaaM vaacamimaaM vadanti caxuH |

shrotraM ka u devo yunakti || 1 ||

 

Meaning - Whose desire mind gets it's motivation? Whose desire does

the life force "praaNa" unites with the body? What motivated force

resulted in the speech? Who uses these perceptive organs (eyes &

ears) for work?
