This is like a question " how do we know that the person is realised or not? " I found the answer given by Parthasarathy a renowned Vedatist to be the best one. He says " Think 20 people are sleeping, in this 20 no one knows who is doing what b'cos all are sleeping and if one wakes up, he knows that he is awake and he also knows that the rest are sleeping. If one more wakes up he comes to that he is woke up and he also knows that the other person is also awake. " This is same case with even our life. We are all sleeping. A person who is realised knows that he is realised, he does not have to prove it to anyone. To know that who is realised we have to realise our selves. sarvam vAsudevamayam jagath Prashanth Get personalized email addresses from Mail http://personal.mail./ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
