Guest guest Posted September 30, 1999 Report Share Posted September 30, 1999 The Brhamnda - Universe, the creation of God is limitless, both ways on +ve integer or -ve integer. When you think how hot..it is limitless, when you cold,how cold it is limitless. When thik how big it is enless, how small or how microscopic it is enless too. The same way is the Atman the soul. And it can be in any form, formless or with form. There is no definition for atma. Like the air you feel something, like the light you see but you don't feel with your sense. Like the taste, you feel but you don't see. But after all there is a solid existence of Atma. It as in the form of Aumkar in the sky, as sound in " aum " and as heart bit in the all living creatures. FREESUE [FREESUE] Friday, September 24, 1999 7:39 PM Ramakrishna ; Vivekananda [ramakrishna] Avadhuta - Chapter 1 verse 4 FREESUE (translator - Swami Chetanananda) Truly the Atman alone is all, and in It there is neither division nor nondivision. It appears to me perplexing to say, " The Atman exists " or " The Atman does not exist. " (comments) Neither division nor nondivision - The Atman is inexpressible. Everything in this world has been either conceptualized by the mind or expressed by speech except the Atman. No conception of division or nondivision is possible with regard to the Atman since no second object apart from It exists. For example, if a person had lived in the solar region from the beginning of his life, he would have no conception of darkness or of light.
