Guest guest Posted November 5, 2000 Report Share Posted November 5, 2000 Dear Sadhaks, These 3 sutras based on my reading the works of Sri Ramana, Sri Sankara and Yoga Vasishtha. This is just to start discussions. Please feel free to discuss these in the light of Advaita. Only three sutras are written now. More will be posted as they get written. With love, Gomu. 1. All perception, illusion, dream and imagination are concepts in the mind. The world seen during waking state is no more real than a dream seen during dream state. Just as a sculptor sees a form in a block of stone before sculpting, Brahman sees the world in Itself. 2. Maya has two faculties - veiling (tamas) and projection (rajas). Both are active in waking and dream states. Projection is not present is deep sleep. Veiling is not present in Savikalpa Samadhi. Both are not present in Nirvikalpa Samadhi. 3. Subtle enquiry into the Subject turns the mind inwards and merges it with the Subject. This is the first step. Repeated practice of this cuts all bondages and extingushes the fire of ego. ------------------------------- ===== --------------- Email: gokulmuthu Webpage: http://www.geocities.com/gokulmuthu/ Phone: Chennai: +91 44 4466448, +91 44 4466449 Bangalore: +91 80 6689904, +91 80 6689938 Residence: +91 44 8270104 --------------- Thousands of Stores.
