Namaste D,

 

What happens if one is a Fijian fire walker and can walk on red hot

rocks without being burned? Where is the mind?

 

If one is hypnotised to believe or not believe something, where is

the individual mind?

 

The Jnani's ex body may observe the world, but where is the

individual mind?

 

Believing that there is only one God, is actually only a step up

from the superstition in believing there are many Gods. The next

step up is believing that we, and all, are 'God'.

 

Many Jnanis may use the description 'God' as a concept in

conversation or dialectics, knowing that the audience needs this to

understand something.

 

A mature Jnani see no 'God' at all, for it is only a mind concept.

The truth is Ajativada --- Nirguna Brahman. 'It never happened,

however it is real enough whilst we are in it.

 

It returns to the litmus test of Vedanta, 'If the world disappears

for the Mukta, it could never have happened in the first place, for

the undividable, no mind, no existance Nirguna Brahman cannot be

divided into matter or dream appearance.'.............ONS...Tony.
