Guest guest Posted August 30, 2005 Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 THUS SPAKE RAMANA - 79 What is Realisation? Is it to see God with four hands, bearing conch, wheel, club, etc.? Even if God should appear in that form, how is the disciple's ignorance wiped out? Such appearance is phenomenal and illusory. All perceptions are indirect or secondary knowledge. The truth must be eternal Realisation. The direct perception is ever present Experience. There must be a seer. The present superimposition of the body as 'I' is so deep rooted, that the vision before the eyes is considered pratyaksha but not the seer himself. The seer alone is real and eternal. Abiding in the Self and BE-ing the Self and not seeing the Self is realisation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
