Contemplation on the Ashtavakra Gita Ch. 2, Vs. 9-19 - 8th August 2017

Now, that's how what is moving. We are blinking, the head might be nodding, hand might be moving, but we are conditioned to believe that this is something that I am doing individually. You are limited to this and you are aware of these movements. Not every movement is limited. Again, you are the doer of these work alone, and a totality comes. You are a limited entity and you are responsible for the every movement of this. Like a clear appearance, all the parties, without condition you will see that we won't have this interpretation. We don't have this judgment. Everything is happening. We can call it happening on its own or happening at the will of consciousness or God. It doesn't matter, it's just terminology.

The knowledge of the universe appears in me as silver appears in mother-of-pearl, a snake appears in a rope, as water appears on a desert horizon. So we talked about this over here in great detail where it is just an apparent separation. This is just an apparent distance. Nothing really happened. This distance is not enough light. It can seem like 'where is the snake?' and actually there is just a rope. Or it can seem like 'where the world will be,' there is just consciousness. This is a great thing. And again, you don't have to stress about these if these insights are not seeming. I think you stay in the inquiry about who you are and let these become apparent to you because through conceptualizing and through reasoning you will not come to this either. At best, it can point you. We are only now seeing, and then these will become your own reports or own testimony described. We became chemicals to prove in general consistency.

So we said, as a pot returns to clay, wave to water, a bracelet to gold, so will the universe return to me. So when the universe goes away, dream state comes. There is no phenomenal experience, phenomenal appearance, yet who thinks you are? So therefore there must be something about your reality which is not phenomenal alone. You think about you, which if you want anomaly, now does that one go away? That it seems that there is nothing in sleep and there is a world or universe in which... but that one changed in any way? If you're carrying the monkey of 'me' on your back, then you cannot pass through these. In fact, you cannot experience words as paintings to yourself. The most beautiful scripture might be... don't mind, my mind is still going, 'What's in it for me? What's in it for me is happening to me.' If this means we carry on our back the weight of myself, they will sound like it's turbulent to take them from another state.

Yeah, I am of the most beautiful voice and I am the number that indicates and we share these and beautiful or their activity kept repeating even after the retreat for many days. Janaka says, 'I am wonderful indeed, beyond adoration. I cannot decay nor even die. Whatever dies, oh God, and all the universe should perish to the last blade of grass.' Who can speak like 'I am wonderful indeed, beyond adoration'? Now this, you can... in the height of our arrogance, we cannot speak it. It must be something which is greater than any human arrogance because we can never say 'I am wonderful indeed, beyond adoration.' And then later he says, 'Go, but and all the universe should perish, last blade of grass.' So God and the universe perishes, I still remain. So who is this personalized that is being spoken about? So wonderful desire, you are beyond any adoration. We only face one at magnificence. It's nothing nominal and we touch your reality. Who saw you on here? The guys coming to this position for himself.

I am wonderful indeed, beyond adoration. Even if I can make each other said something, Marley needs using the very popular to say, 'If my finger is cut, every feature, are you going to be universe one without looking in it? I remain untouched.' Now, it is some sort of lack of compassion to be the lack of love this speaking from the reality of the Self, which means the untouched no matter what the content of the... please, once you see yourself to be one key space within dream, the career that I am not touched by the content of any of these three. This is your discovery, this is your recognition. The source can be different. You don't have to report a man between bead, although I like to hear it. This is coming to next what now? Coming to the end of the world without eighty experiences.

Again, a reactive experience. If something's are tired of this nominally, then all vanishes. The state changes and it could be that another will appear. Then you can follow this a dream state for that waking state or that a dream state for this, which is a 2002. The fact is that gives us much we can agree on: that the experience of phenomenal appearance also is ultimately coming in with either not a constant. So what is the definition of reality that we describe? The first thing we said that we mean unchanging. It's direct extreme. So they're not achieve some form to that back definition of the end. So without getting into the data of both dream state, whether the body is still there and with a degree that is, we can say to children, let's not get into any of that for putting LOI and also that. But what we're not getting into that achieves, we can agree if anything phenomenal is coming in boom, impact the entire phenomenal experience and the substratum of it will also coming in the air if there is something for deep sleep, dreamless, which more phenomenal excuse to pay.

Therefore, we filed a petition in reality is that it must be something which is unchanging and it does not apply to that. So let's meet at this point and then see if phenomenal next event will not conform to this definition of reality. If there's something that does, there's something that remains unchanging. It's tech to go further, very calm down. If there's something which is here, it is here. It is possible to state whether it is weekend or not, that it's all what happened when you woke up. Which one is that one? If you think a voice, no space to come, this makes it obvious. Aim is that at least this much there must be agreement on. But if our definition of reality is that which is unchanging, then this entire nominal experience also cannot be to further reality.

So if there's something from our direct experience which way is going to be unchanged, and we came to this point where we were saying that it's all but something happening and such meaning 'I am' came into a twist at which is all the waiting space in after this whole time. There is never the experience of a world without a distance of this sense of existence. But also this condition, what is that constant business to the we're both sixteen and we witness all phenomena, right? If they're able to rest in this on the patient sometimes without picking up any motion of clicking at all when you are very, very according to the direct position of the Sun. It's a no bases were ready for this application with that references all phenomena with that exams phenomenon. Remain in this contemplation without taking out our interests, any mention of anything, any judgment, no past, no future, nothing at all.

What to do with the mind as it comes with depredations, conclusions, okay nation that is? Let it come and what would you say we do that? But there might be the content of the word. What are the principles? What business is this business as no Marcel is parameters and the procedure because to that's it available within your existence. Among you is the thumb, so I can help them with a few pointers. Then the snuff existence of being the first and t-mobile and choosing. So just to make it a little clearer what we're talking about, I ask you: Can you stop being? You stop being beside. Try to not be late or not be. You see with do the same. I just exist. I can't help. My mind will come, become answers, okay. But when I go to see, when I die, then I will be a doctor for the future. Just now, can you not be? Remote agrees its existence the foot full more effortless with this is therefore exists. It's a virtuous existence. You can swap Adam and I, we were the first because if I ask you, can you find your be buying this? I am empty mobile sensors in the person facing zero. So when I say it may not be this will be for the second book. I just have this exist movie the where of it is undeniable the redesign anywhere else to do not that mr.

When I die, then I will be a doctor for the future. Just now, can you not be? Everyone agrees its existence is the most effortless. With this, therefore, exists. It's a virtuous existence. You can swap Atma and 'I'. We were the first because if I ask you, can you find your being behind this 'I am'? Empty of all sensors, in the person facing zero. So when I say it may not be this, it will be for the second book. I just have this existence. The awareness of it is undeniable. There isn't anywhere else to go. Not that Mr. Walker said, 'a small-minded I'. Which I? This that they were very even equipped with more in currently no conceptual knowledge, which is strictly more spiritual consultation. Happy to appear as anything that we think we know until all conclusions rely on more energy. What is aware of might be appliance. Then these words of Janaka come with a complete sense: 'I am wonderful indeed, beyond adoration. I cannot be decayed. My abode is God, and if all the universe should perish, the last bit of God, I am wonderful indeed, beyond adoration. Even with the body, I am one. I neither come nor go. I am everywhere at once.'

So what we'll be talking about here can seem like the body has been made to be living. But your spirituality within all the Vedic tradition throughout the world, any time we took this, what do you got in the bottom? Which is the problem. Now the recognition is with the, without the body, even with the body, and this one more separation really came. Only the apparent separation has happened. Looks like that. Make a little appearance of a body, it does not lead to any separation. Only the identification attachment which makes it seem like there is a separate entity. This is the Self. Even with the body, I am one. I neither come nor go, and am everywhere at once. All these are closing, all these agree together.

So maybe for last night, we woke up at the funny end because everything about every single side children, nothing. It is a view from second LOD. We can figure out we went to the nucleus, which is checked all our devices will roll up, and we would be set, which is contact night. Because that night performed duties. So on one hand, everybody loved looking for the deep, and then we do sadly. We enter the room, you came back to the bedroom, we could get you, can't find you. Then they repeated you. Let's see through the tension there. The calmness is where it comes. The screen is in a panic, seemed to be coming from like it was loudest and you were at the doorway. We couldn't tell whether it is some outside with a real insightful. They just stood at the doorway and found it. All this comes every fourth grand on this. Like this is as follows, the found this bill consultation ready.

Then we also discovered that it's happening exactly on 15 seconds. Every 15 seconds, as you could come when you set a timer. I got a, here is it, it is a very fast you on the phone to set a time. Next will be something of the a second 47. If we can vary between two, this one, it's ready for yes that we. And then we found that in our cupboard, the roof all safe, and that small space, some button is being pressed by some too, and it was leaking as a reaction to that. And to setting like an anomaly between take a little tweaking. What happened is that just doing what is it, the thing pointed to? Where is the sound taking us? You just have to let go of everything else, just follow them from this. This like that, when the cage is speaking, we have to just follow what she takes aim. So that moment he has will be discrete. I neither come nor go and everywhere at once.

So what say we find the need to say neither come nor go? When we find that the Bible doesn't come up with, it's a one constant that leaders you can do like an 18 accuse world appearance. The body, absolutely changing, also comes and goes. Lots we can improve. Emotions also come and go. All experience do. What is left? My existence. Now one thing you can say about it, that longer there is the world, there is a, in a way, this is the constant. Everything in the universe of the world also comes and goes, but is own take the world appearances that this is the one constant operating. Please be the one in reality, as far as unwitting citizens, because this consequence with the part of the deity of the vacancies very about the word so much. Once again, for one constant where everything else is really moving and changing, this being is the one constant. And this actually, it's much is enough in spirituality. Bumper this: I am that I am. I am this one function which doesn't come and go.

Good, let's check this. Contain the location. With all location contains within it under time that I will give the answer and that takes away and your own ticket. Does it have a location in space? It would have a pawn. It would have a location in planning relation. All the trees are the Avenue. You cannot stop me for being with effortless and this being the one constant with ever-changing world. All the severity now you have to be continued. This is embezzlement to go and experience to come to this consciousness, to conquer this which beautiful to avoid any time. This is to follow. We would look slightly for most likely where is it ending in the changing rel? Whatever that is unchanging. All the killer is also to do that. You cannot carry the monkey of the meal on your back as a good role of the to be familiar or constantly getting detected by boy is a believer in something. You can I did this one have to do to evaluate because I want to keep working here in area which is get that one. Either comfortable, don't don't let a represent you. You see that is, it's better than changing. Everything else will come and go, but they've said earlier, I cannot be decayed. Whatever I thought, all the universe perish, the last betas are you can we go the one the Bisbee that boca equator and because that into the reality of what I am. What if it was high media?

I am wonderful indeed, beyond adoration, and a Sounders at my powers. The universe appears within me, but I do not touch it. There's so many times I say this. I'm not too concerned about healing or it could be physical. So all of this is, it's all so miraculous. This moment itself, apparently the reserve there are bundles of millions of atoms you're always holding as a better individual entity, and they all collect in this one from various parts of the world. That is we. And then on the computer of any many for that we always sit here like this. We are talking about that which is unchanging reality. That itself is miraculous enough for me. Are we doing this? This is the conundrum. Then it became full again. It's no biggie. And if we can appeal this moment, consciousness is not limited eyes anymore. There it's like a budget specifically remember faculty experience nor devastates each other. How to discover the power of man at a pitch Tom Chris time you use the time are we the owners in this presentation can access effect not evening it is system and of each time and space we put poison we have light in town that's be detected in this we did open a door upon its begin sit upon Eclipse dissing aspect of my hotel.

I am wonderful indeed. Now make the case for you and tighten time the wrong way. I post them listen to the reason being with lifetime with nothing begins with an eyelid. I mean them skills which are more meaning first voice that will have empathy. That means that once when I fix it myself, no words can really decide all the opposite is beginning and so this with that consequence I see that I have I am wonderful indeed. I am astounded is not always within the word appears within me but I do not touch it. I am wonderful indeed beyond adoration. I am everything are all spoken and has nothing everything. This means anything as I am as I hold on to liquid always once always myself maybe all that is for small that is hot we will defined as an aspect of reality.

Knowledge, knower, and the knowable do not exist, and the transfer himself which we the airship. So ignorant here means work. It is not a big difference within sees another word for Maya. So I own divine aspect to be buying it either the divine division itself we create my to do the light of my favor and pleased with the parent you know this my could become an object in divine playing with divine manifestations to build my own I said I cannot be found any of this and that is homeless undecidable trying to get to me with your mind like looking at the moon with the arrow because your devices or your techniques leave all the waves find me that which witnesses all of this hill we meet as one and this meeting is one sweetness no phenomena can match this we take communion. I am wonderful indeed beyond adoration. Maybe two more verses residuals one perfect.

Community reason look at this was an affair said reality knowledge the knower and the knowable do not exist. So with a parent liaison is real phenomena time then all these possibilities that we know something we talked about exciting with exceptional will be unsettling they can we are mostly and paste online all of this moving of content is this appearances we can save the phenomena becomes reality all of these eyes out of I do we necessary before awareness is if this kind of knowledge is the knowledge the knower and the knowable we apply to this phenomenal food about to make liquid we're talking about cannot be obtained with this kind of knowledge a bit with knowledge can all the pointers beyond and unbounded awareness meaning in imagination I have limits reflecting on this I arrived in the absolute unbounded awareness only in imagination do I have liver reflecting on this I abide the absolute.

This is an Occidental to father is an idol three mobile when using no such thing as fallen into peacefully though I contain creation has no substance if you don't agree neither free nor about reducing effect English for them into decision if you think that the mind knows only position top and that I know something what I don't know I don't have to do it I'm up adore either are bound for and free is also a concept as virtuous we I then I'm only on a spiritual anything object so we can come to this if you are speaking this will be technically you can only be subsidy through our recognition you cannot come to this until you but I'm neither good or am I can undo and not that it would have been aware of a not you and not that I receive is one who start research this also at the end eaten up by the source of this one this speaker is not finished it in its finished by the true seeker does not become the finder we will not go from being a seeker into an enlightened person there is also significant writing this is the recognition that there is no person with that aspect of consequence is that we backed these an individuality has fallen away water completely fallen into this video hit up haha and I go see now bound the illusion assess things as other introduces the illusion of these they are part of this illusion of having a individual position.

This is something to see notice that a given the combined the same time to tell you what happens point to yourself for position about yourself what you start to see this in all the needless the various the needless argument religious position taking because or then do this because you can do it upon the business to different version is really you come to be thing that I cannot feed anything to really true but they're looking to win that wheel the phenomenal wormhole all opposition which the ego isn't moving as touches then only you fall into this vision what did you say the derivative of the meaning of Sona with something physically met with an nothing that rattle this 2002 big be likely to falsely believe that egg to be I would call a memory it is the believed itself is a traitor the reason is what the power of consciousness to retain their equal to something limited the power of the lease itself event for were to identify with the minor that power of the unlimited function why does it have to follow his mind compromise it is much easier but with this power itself or not but we've exhausted everything but also contain e

It is very likely to falsely believe that egg to be what I would call a memory. It is the belief itself which is a traitor. The reason is: what is the power of consciousness to restrict itself to something limited? The power of belief itself. If it were to identify with the mind, that power of the unlimited functions. Why does it have to follow this mind compromise? It is much easier to be with this power itself or not. We've exhausted everything but also contain everything. Keeping the power to believe that we are less than everything, everything is contained in this tsunami. Even that goes to the answer for people like, 'Why do bad things happen to good people? Why is there evil in this way?' The Guru is a representation of everything, which is not the representation of just an aspect. That's why I please giggle a little bit at the aspect, the function.

Having seen for certain that this universe is a body without form or substance and revealed as awareness alone, machinations also place no meaning in the same thing. All the static filter does not get possession of my imagined limitation. My apparent appearance as a limited entity has not applied to reality, which I have discovered through the contemplation. I stood up at MSI reporting with a good question. She says the following: 'A way of identity cannot be real. What makes it happen?' First, for this, you have to clarify what you mean by 'we'. Let me clarify the question further. If there was something like free will, who would it belong to? It could belong to a personal entity, and that would mean that there is actually a personal entity that came into existence. Now, if no person has ever come into existence, can it ever have anything, including will? So that will doesn't exist.

I think, okay, let's look at the blue cat in this room. Only for me, if you look at it in the room, there is no blue cat like that. So how can that blue cat have a will? For this, it would look like it wants to go outside. What is he talking about? There is no such thing. This is the same as we say that the person has some will. We have to first find if there is such a thing like a person, or if it is just an idea like the blue cat. This was the first option: who could have will? So when we say it cannot be will, then we actually might mean that it cannot be will from a personal perspective because no person actually came into existence. There is no such entity here.

Then you might feel, 'Okay, but what about will from this perspective?' What is the next perspective? Consciousness. Now, everything will seem to happen in the light of this consciousness. When I am, then there is the appearance, and all your movements and this apparently happen. Now, all of this is what we can say is the will of consciousness. Why the play happens cannot be defined. This is not an answer which matches up to some standards of truth. Everything is a veil of concepts. We say it because we find only consciousness is here for all that is happening. Because we see the design and the pattern and everything, in some way, who is the Guru of this? It must be conscious. It must be willing. It is functioning as I surrender. Words we say, 'I am not the doer, I am not the experiencer. Allah, God, or Guru, consciousness is the one doer and the one experiencer.' So for that exercise, we can face everything with the will of consciousness. Therefore, even the clapping, the picking up, and the talking, let it be just the will of consciousness. I wanted everything to be clear. Nothing, not a blade of grass moves unless it is the will of consciousness, the play of consciousness.

Now, there's a third perspective also you could take. You can take that my information is the Absolute. Then we see that it will be consciousness being with a crystal, with the manifest of myself. But I, or Brahman, is that which is aware of even existence. I witness my being. I am aware of my existence. I am completely so pure, so unconcerned by even the concept of will, yet everything comes from this. So will does not apply at the personal level. It does not apply at the Absolute. It only applies at this middle reach, at the level of consciousness. So what makes it happen is that which makes everything happen, which is consciousness. Consciousness makes everything happen to itself. Nobody else has been found. In fact, so much so that now, except we big ones, she also represents the person. Look into the possibility that one day you might actually find this person and bring it to me because there is a thousand-dollar cash prize or a new clue for whoever can present a person to me and say, 'Here it is.' Where is the person? Bring it to me if you have a fresh perspective.

Okay, fine. I don't find it now. Okay, fine. But can you conclude? You say that no science hopefully will ever discover the person. I believe it is stable. The point is that this is an extinct idea. It's like the blue cat. Consciousness has given itself the power to be itself, to be something which is a bundle of concepts, the ideas about itself and its limitations. Then what? If consciousness explains punishment, it is done with a play. It also doesn't like abrupt endings to movies. We don't like abrupt endings to movies. We want to be in the movies of ten pitches. We go there and something is just about to happen, and then once I define where it will come into the end of the movie, also it is playing it out. Coming to satsang is having insight where it is extracting the juice from this process, or it extracted all the juice of getting diluted. Now they are starting; all the juice of this process is coming out of the use, including its apparent frustration, by asking, 'Why don't I get it?' All of it is the play of this one, where no personal will exists.

Then Alan says, 'When the rubber hits the road, I oppose.' If I did what to do? The rubber hits the road, but I oppose. What to do?

Yes, if it is in fact the reason why we have satsang. Immediately you collect them this way. We can encourage the chanting, people I know. Their fun booster is hitting the road and I can feel like so much of tension. So I can just everyday remind you which one or the tire which is working. You are the witness of that. But don't think like the tire which is wasting water, the tire to remove the strong wave. I know that when something happens and it seems like it is true, that is why having the beautiful Master immortalized is the best gift that we can have. It is just like a child. We always go beyond this. I used to tell my children that, 'Let me see for how many minutes you can hold on.' I will take a bet with my daughter when she was in some sort of pain. I will say, 'Okay, let's see how great you are, that in fifteen minutes we won't even remember which hand is paining.' Now, this is also a reminder for you because as the rubber hits the road, as we go, see, this will not be a police presence. It will be love.

It can seem like these times or something, they come back until I put a scuffle forever. You see, people are not available because all those moments of suffering, they come and go often. Also, sometimes the fact is that the contrast is always given to the gift of the satsang as if available to you in this life. The joy of being in the physical presence, the beauty of being in a mattress with candles. So in this time, which mind contains and is only full of suffering, the greatest gifts have also come through the realm of contrasts. Everything is basically a gift. If it is this, and the suffering is going to be remembered the most, it is from us. The rubber hits the road, that which it would believe. I listed, I'm sorry, that's my advice. You always go to the beginning and with it, you don't play with any more concepts. Regarding temptations also, for you, there is only one thing which is the function in many of our lives, which is the divine presence of the Master. Hand on the feet of the Master, like a child, and don't let the others let it escape. Similarly, you will come to this discovery that everything had always been taken care of. Thank you all so much for being in satsang. Anant Shri Baba Ji Ki Jai. I am happy to have some chanting today. If you'd like to continue to be here, you're very welcome to be here.
