Guest guest Posted November 29, 2004 Report Share Posted November 29, 2004 STUDY GROUP on SPIRITUAL INSTRUCTON CHAPTER 4 ATTAINMENT Arudha V17. Q. Is it possible for everyone to know directly without doubt what exactly is one's true nature? M. There is no need at all to doubt that it is possible. V18. Q. How? M. It is the experience of everyone that even in the states of deep sleep, fainting, etc., when the entire universe, moving and stationary, beginning with earth and ending with the unmanifested (Prakriti), disappear, he does not disappear. Therefore the state of pure being which is common to all and which is always experienced directly by everybody is one's true nature. The conclusion is that all experiences in the enlightened as well as the ignorant state, which may be described by newer and newer words, are opposed to one's real nature. _________________________ This work that solely embodies the words of jnana-experience, which arose from the unwritten Veda, the Heart of Bhagavan Sri Ramana, will shine forever as the sun of reality, the true jnana, illuminating the hearts of those who have renounced (attachments). __________________________ END of STUDY GROUP on SPIRITUAL INSTRUCTON ------- anu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
