> RETIRING ABODE IN THE BODY

> QUESTIONER: Whenever a question is put to you, you say "Know first who it

> is to whom the doubt occurs,Does anybody doubt the doubter?,Know

> yourself before you proceed to speak of others," etc. This is a veritable

> supreme weapon at your hands to deal with the questioner and I, S<caron>..

>

> SRI BHAGAVAN: Yes, what are you trying to say?

>

> QUESTIONER: Be pleased to come to our level and remove our doubts. You can

> understand our position. We cannot understand yours. You are far above

> and we are far below. If you wish, you can come to us, we cannot go to you.

> SRI BHAGAVAN: What do you wish to know?

>

> QUESTIONER: They say the Self is everywhere; Brahman (the Absolute) is

> omnipresent. It is beyond and it is also the Self. If my Self is Brahman,

> I should be everywhere. But there is the feeling that I am in this body or

> confined to this body; even if I am distinct from the body I am inseparable

> from it. Similarly I am inseparable from the mind, even the "I" seems to

> be a part of the mind. Where is the mind without the brain? Certainly, I

> cannot imagine that I can be without the mind or the brain which is a part

> of this body.

>

> SRI BHAGAVAN: Have you finished? Is there anything else? Doubts never

> end. If one doubt is removed another takes its place. It is like removing

> the leaves of a tree one by one. Even if all the leaves are chipped off,

> new ones grow. The tree itself must be uprooted.

Sri

Ramansramam.
