Guest guest Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Experience Immortality Places change, times changes, things change, activities change, states changes, circumstances change, incidents change, but we (Self) remains the same, at all times. The Self is changeless. Waking, dreaming and sleeping - these three states change. But we (Self) remain one only and therefore we know these different states and the changes therein, as well as, the beginnings and ends thereof. If we ponder from a gross perspective, just as we went from City A to City C, then first we went from City A to City B and then from City B to City C. Had we been in City A only at all times, then how could we have arrived at City B and City C? and vice versa. Thus, we are neither residing in City A, nor in City B, nor in City C. These places are separate, but we are one (and the same) only. We remained the same in City A, in City B and in City C. Similarly, we remain the same in waking state, in dream state and in deep sleep state also. Hence, one must see what is unchanging and not what is changing. In other words, we have to experience " non-attachment " within us. " Rahata roop sahi kar raakho , bahta sang na bahije " Recognise the form which stays, don't get carried away with that which flows (like water) We don't have any relationship with that which changes - this is immortality (liberation). This immortality is self-proven, obvious and natural. This immortality is not something that requires anything to be done. We have only assumed our relationship with the changing, perishable and destructible (it is not actually so). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
