Namaste R,

 

However if one is the water and the knowledge and methods just

illusionary thoughts; what then?

 

If even the water rushing through is also illusionary; what then?

 

I see no attachment to detachment or detachment to attachment in my

thinking. Why should I wait for the unfolding of the mystery? What

is the mystery but 'Who am I?'.

 

In Self enquiry one goes directly to the point and realises there is

only water. Then one becomes the water(Maharaj says we are

Praneaswara), and then on bodiless moksha the water is found never

to have existed?...........ONS.Tony
