Guest guest Posted September 10, 2004 Report Share Posted September 10, 2004 Namaste, Sri Nairji, Thanks for having gone thru my mail. The discussions between you and Sri Dennisji did arouse interest in me to ponder into the question of Witness. If my understanding is correct, 'Mritchakatikam' is a Sanskrit Drama, and I do not know wrote it. I am not very sure about that. The verses I quoted are from "Panchadasi" by Sri Vidyaranya Swami, which is a Prakarana Grandha usually taught to Advaita Vedanta students. I agree with you even the idea of witness is witnessed by the Witness. There is no moment when Witness is absent, whether there is anything to be witnessed or not to be witnessed. There is no action on the part of That Witness while witnessing and That Witness itself gets falsified once what is witnessed is falsified on the wake of "Aham Brahmasmi". However, it is not correct to use the word "falsify", but it is used just only for understanding, as there is neither falsification of anything nor giving reality to anything. One cannot rather need not falsify anything which is in fact not there and one need not rather cannot give reality to a thing which is in fact real. Where will be the so-called “falsifier” as Ekam eva Adviteeyam Brahma? That is also my understanding, yes ONLY “UNDERSTANDING”. With pranams and Hari Om to all Madathil Rajendran Nair <madathilnair wrote: Sponsor advaitin/ advaitin New and Improved Mail - Send 10MB messages!
