VML-8/4/00

[Guest guest]

The Atman never comes nor goes, is never born, nor dies. It is nature

moving before the Atman, and the reflection of this motion is on the

Atman; and the Atman ignorantly thinks it is moving, and not nature.

When the Atman thinks that, it is in bondage; but when it comes to

find it never moves, that it is omnipresent, then freedom comes. The

Atman in bondage is called Jiva.
