[NondualitySalon] No Where Else To Go

[Guest guest]

wise grieve neither for the living nor the dead. For never

was I naught nor thou nor these princes of men. Nor shall

we cease to be hereafter. For the unreal never was and the

real never ceases to be."

 

With Love,

Marcia

 

Harsha: Thanks Marcia for that beautiful quote from the Gita. "The unreal

never was and the real never ceases to be." To See That Is to Truly See. To

See That Is to Be. Seeing is Being. The Seer Is Sight. Here is what I wrote

on another list quoting you, Gene and David. It points to the understanding

of Advaita and that which is beyond name and form and cannot be spoken of

but only indicated. Ramana Maharshi once said that just as an elephant wakes

up upon seeing a tiger in his dream, similarly an aspirant wakes up to

Reality upon seeing the Guru in the world-dream.

 

"To See means to See. Differentiation implies being far sighted.

Interpretation implies being near sighted. Both depend on each other, are

relative, and indicate the suffering of illusory knowledge. To wish for

freedom and to work for freedom assumes the existence of bondage. Being Is

Freedom. Relax into Freedom. That is Gene's message and David's. And has

not Marcia taught us that Attitude is everything. Forget permanent and

impermanent. Forget freedom and bondage. Forget Samsara and Moksha. Forget

about forgetting. To See Is To See. Forget what I said. Now! :--).
