Guest guest Posted December 13, 2005 Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 Quesioner: The last couple of days I've been watching my mind...asking questions, analyzing, the thougths coming up...there's really no difference than birds flying out the window, the same way letting the thoughts fly out, and not get caught up... Maharaj: all those thoughts are the conditions of the mind and so long as the conditioning is there, it's the natural process of the body/mind, the result of the existing conditioning. Q. For Jnani, what exactly is the function of the mind? M. Jnani is divorced, disidentified itself from the body mind and the ideas come and go...that's the difference. Jnani does not consider himself to be an (individual) entity. ............(long talk of repeated ideas... " you are the consciousness " ) M. Having understood that you are the consciousness, what else is there to understand? The simplicity is embarassing, isn't it? -- Hur's unedited interpretation from an old Maharaj tape Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jnani does not > consider himself to be an (individual) entity. i'm not to sure what he's driving at here but jnani is one who is and intellectual seeker and is usually never satisfied in that b/c the search persues and persists. > > ...........(long talk of repeated ideas... " you are the > consciousness " ) Well perhaps this was the point, to remember and ok. > > M. Having understood that you are the consciousness, what else is > there to understand? The simplicity is embarassing, isn't it? well yes,it is, Hur have you got more and from some some of the intellectualist that are bouncing off these walls in this forum. Man they been reading too many books mixing and merging, overlapping and blindly. Quite a challenge for this guru , but eyes a loving it, it's great, i was so fed up of the meathead christians, this is more entertaining besides keeps me sharp as a tack. notice i didn't say 'two edged sword'______LOL i could have blown my cover. > > -- Hur's unedited interpretation from an old Maharaj tape > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
