Guest guest Posted November 18, 2004 Report Share Posted November 18, 2004 Mandukya Karika II.32. There is no dissolution, no birth, none in bondage and none aspiring for wisdom, no seeker of liberation and none liberated. This is the Absolute Truth. * * * II.34. From the standpoint of the Self the world does not exist; nor does it exist as independent, neither differentiated nor non- differentiated. This is what the wise know. * * * II.36. Knowing It in this way, fix your memory on Non-duality. Having attained to the Non-dual, behave in the world like a mindless thing. * * * III.27. For the birth of the existent (sat ) is reasonable through illusion, not however in reality. Indeed, to him for whom birth is real, the born is born! * * * III.28. The birth of the nonexistent is not reasonable through illusion or reality, either. The son of a barren woman is not born either through illusion or in reality. * * * III.31. This duality in whatever form, both the moving and the unmoving, is mind-perceived. For when the mind ceases to be mind, the duality is not perceived at all.

Namaste, This is only makes logical sense even if it is hard to understand. If there were potential differentiation then that would infer potential duality which is impossible. For Nirguna has no attributes or even potential attributes.......Hard to deny one's eyes but that seems to be the ultimate truth.........ONS..Tony.
