Guest guest Posted October 18, 2002 Report Share Posted October 18, 2002 om namo bhagavate sri ramanaya Mahapurushji said: 'What are called space, time and causation in English are desha, kala and nimitta in our language. Brahman is beyond these categories. Freedom means going beyond them. Precisely one does not go anywhere by attaining freedom - where can one go? It represents a state of consciousness in which there is an end of all limitations. To go beyond the world is to have the knowledge that Brahman is both immanent and transcendent. The knower of Brahman becomes Brahman - in essence the embodied soul does not have any separate existence....Freedom is not achieving something external; it is Self-knowledge attained by the renunciation of phenomena.' (Sri Sri Mahapurushjir Katha) Sri Bhagavan said: 'You are awareness. Awareness is another name for you. All that you have to do is to give up being aware of other things; that is, of the not-Self. If one gives up being aware of them, then pure awareness alone remains, and that is the Self.' (Day by Day with Bhagavan) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
