Atma Bodha - Post 2

Dear All,

The essence of all questions posted in connection with various theme covered in the blog (except the  2 vahinis and the Narada Bhakti Sutras which caste up later) are given in the following  3 questions:

Questions

What is the God existence to be realized by a Jiva as culmination of Sadhana?

Does God exist in universe after creating universe??

What is God consciousness or Brahman actually???

An answer, an expression, A secret

"The Isavasya Upanishad says that the whole Universe is pervaded by Isvara or God, who is both within and without it. He is the moving and the unmoving, He is far and near, He is within all these and without all these."

Now, let us devote time in reading and then absorbing the same in early morning hours, in total silence, with pure mind, on one portion of the above expression "WITHIN"!!

Author is recapitulating the following part from a post under the theme "Creation of Universe".

"Suppose there is a big boulder, a stone. You see the stone; it

is very hard and heavy, and you can touch it as a solid object. 

Bring a sufficiently powerful microscope and look at this stone. You will find that the stone is a heap of very minute, fly-like, insect-like entities called molecules. It is a heap of certain things, and not one solid object.

Bring another, more powerful microscope, more powerful than the earlier one. Even the molecules will not be seen there. There will be still finer elements looking like almost non-cognisable particles which are called atoms.

Bring a still more powerful microscope. You will find that even these little particles melt into a continuum of energy, or force, which impinges on the energy centres which are other atoms. It looks as if there is one sea of force everywhere, an indistinguishable continuum.

What has happened to the stone?

Can you say that this sea of force, these atoms, one day thought: “Let us become a stone”? 

If the atoms have really become the stone, they will not be there for you to see through the microscope. 

You will conclude that they have never become the stone. It is only your vision that presents the perception of a solid object.

These so-called ‘things’ – molecules, atoms, energy centres, etc. – never became the stone. They were never transformed into the stone. They did not create the stone. They exist and have always existed in the same condition as they were when you perceived them through a powerful perception.

The stone has not been created, though it is solidly perceivable. In the same way, the world has not been created, though it is visible to the eyes.

CONCLUSION FOR TODAY

Similar to the stone which was never created, which is actually only a continuum of energy if one reaches to its subtlest existence, we the Jivas , exist with our body at gross level, just as the stone is also visible at a gross level, but exactly like the continuum of energy explained in the case of stone, we the jivas are also actually not the physical form that we are, but we are actually THE SPIRIT / THE SOURCE / THE PURE CONSCIOUSNESS !!!!

Love.
