Guest guest Posted July 4, 2000 Report Share Posted July 4, 2000 How to know the Knower? It cannot be known. How can you see your own Self? You can only reflect yourself. So all this universe is the reflection of that One Eternal Being, the Atman, and as the reflection falls upon good or bad reflectors, so good or bad images are cast up. Thus in the murderer, the reflector is bad and not the Self. In the saint the reflector is pure. The Self-the Atman-is by Its own nature pure. -- ______________________________ Today we continue Swamiji's lecture called: THE ATMAN (Delivered in America) This is a part of a daily study of the lectures and writings of Swami Vivekananda.
