Guest guest Posted December 14, 2003 Report Share Posted December 14, 2003 D. The Upanishads say, I am told, that he alone knows the Atman whom the Atman choses. Why should the Atman choose at all? If it chooses, why some particular person? Maharshi: When the sun rises, some buds alone blossom, not all. Do you blame the sun for that? Nor can the bud blossom of itself; it requires the sunlight to do it. D. May we not say that the help of the Atman is needed because it is the Atman that drew over itself the veil of Maya? M. You may say so. D. If the Atman has drawn the veil over itself, should not itself remove th eveil? M. It will do so. See for whom is the veil! D. Why should I? Let the Atman itself remove the veil! M. If the Atman talks about the veil, then the Atman itself will remove it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
