Guest guest Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 >> THE TRUTH IS NEITHER ONE NOR TWO. IT IS AS IT IS. Maybe, it is just another way of saying: No matter what words, concepts, tags or labels you use they can not really explain the truth. Mind is just a small tiny aspect of the manifested reality and has NO capacity to fully understand, comprehend or explain the reality, the Whole that gives it birth and sustains and contains it. Mind's attempt to understand the truth is in a way, similar to a bubble trying to understand, explain and CONTAIN the ocean. It is even more difficult in case of mind, because mind is just one small aspect of manifestation but the truth is the name of Infinite Possibilities, Limitless Potential that has ...Endless aspects.

At the level of manifestation, a 'Ramana' is nothing but just ...a mind ! A mind that is limited by its nature. When one says the mind can not know the TRUTH, it means, ...a mind can NOT know the truth even if its name is ....'Ramana' !!!!! Many people, mistakenly assume that a Ramana, a Tolle, a Katie, a Buddha, an Osho, a Nissargadatta understands the TRUTH and thereby, GROSSLY miss the real essence of the teaching. A Ramana does NOT understand the TRUTH . Ramana is the TRUTH ! ....and, even TRUTH doesn't understand the " truth " ! The TRUTH lies beyond all knowing, and unknowing, beyond all ...Knowledge and Ignorance ! No mind can understand the Truth. ....even the one 'known' as 'Realized', even one known as ...a 'Ramana' !

Remember? One guy feels it's trunk and says it's long and thin. The other guy feels it's leg and says it's thick and round. The other guy feels its ears.....and so on. It's all tiny little pieces like a puzzle that get put together. (notwithstanding the pieces are illusory goes without saying.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a limited 'object' can be fully known. ....Not an Infinite Potential ! Very definition of knowing includes the knowledge of ...limitation, boundaries. An Infiniti can NEVER be fully known. An object is known by what it can do, ....and what it can NOT do. What it contains and ...what it doesn't. What lies inside it and what lies ....beyond it. The Container must be Bigger, Greater than the object it contains, ....yet, the Biggest container itself will remain unknown to anything that it contains. The Container will remain UNKNOWN to itself too. It doesn't contain itself ! ....IT IS ITSELF ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 The very effort and attempt to know lies in the realm of mind and gives rise to mind. A mind that no matter how much it tries, ...still can NOT transcend itself ! The truth is realized, ....or rather the truth ‘realizes’ not by making an effort to know, understand or ....comprehend, but, by the ... Utter Surrender . ....that cuts the root of mind. No Mind, ....and the vies comes down, the fog disappears ! .. .... ...... Truth is Not known by learning, knowing about it, TRUTH is known by ...being IT ! All “knowing about” ....are Mere Distractions ! At Best, ....a ‘good’ Entertainment ! ........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
