REALIZING NON–DUAL LIBERATION, ENLIGHTENMENT BY SELF-INQUIRY – PT 147
[The Teaching of Non-Duality has been adapted from Master Nome, disciple of Sri Ramana Maharshi. Sections appended below derive from Sri Ramana’s Teaching.]
One should inwardly know, “The Body, Mind, & Ego are not ‘I’. Nor are they mine.” Though all-pervading, the Self does not become attached, due to its Formlessness, even when appearing as if endowed with a Mind & a Body. The Self is ever the Absolute & Non-Dual. The consideration of it as otherwise is due solely to Ignorance. The scriptures declare that one who remains in the certain Knowledge of Brahman is never born again. Birth is a Delusion.
[Ramana]
There is a World perceived. That perception is only apparent. The perception requires location for existence & light. Such existence & light are simultaneous with the rise of the Mind. So the “physical existence” & illumination are part of mental existence & illumination which in turn are not absolute for the Mind rises & sinks. The Mind has its substratum in the Self, which is self-evident – that is – It’s Existence & self-luminosity are obvious. That is Absolute Existence which continuous throughout Waking, Dream, & Deep Dreamless Sleep.
