THUS SPAKE RAMANA - 51

 

Every plane has its own illusion, which can be destroyed only by another

illusion on the same plane. For example, a man takes a full meal and goes to

sleep. He dreams of being hungry in spite of the jagrat food in his stomach.

To satisfy the dream hunger, he has to take dream food. Similarly the illusion

of ajnana (ignorance) can be destroyed only by the illusion of guru upadesa (the

Master's teaching). Mukti (liberation) is ever present, and bondage is for ever

absent, yet the universal experience is the reverse.
