It's wonderful to have taken the trouble to do these readings of a very important, but little known text. It clarifies so much and would be useful for so many.
Self can only realise self via a channel. That is what the individual is for its final form. It creates a channel for fragmented intelligence, for individual intelligence. Eventually that person can become a chnnel from self to self, meaning that the self cannot learn unless it is divided, without that division there is no knowledge, each person is like a periscode for the self to see itself. For most of these people they never reach fruition, they fall away, but for some who reach self realisation they become permanent channels and are therefore immortal.
A fruit fly is buzzing around. For it, the air is thick, palpable. It swims more than flies. It owns the space we live in as much as I, extrusions of the same Force. One paragraph describing it consuming more energy than it uses in a lifetime.
Favorite part on reincarnations and karma: "One is reborn in environments consistent with the thought uppermost in one's mind while dying. This statement applies to others and not to liberated beings (jnanis). As for liberated beings, the following is said in other scriptures: 1. Liberated beings have the root of misery cut off at the instant of realizing the Self (Self alone exists and is God). It is immaterial for him if he dies in a holy spot or in foul surroundings, remaining aware or overtaken by coma just before death. He is emancipated just the same. 2. Unmistakably realizing Shiva (Self to be God) even once by masters advice, by scriptures of by inference, there could no longer remain any ting of obligatory duty on his part because he is emancipated. Such karma is only a trick believed to be true by the onlooker. I shall explain this state further. The state of a liberated being is identical with Shiva (Self is God). There is no difference between them. Therefore, karma can no longer be smeared on him." Important note from me - realizing the Self talked about here is not the realization of teachers like Echart Tolle, Adyashanti, Daniel Ingram, Osho, Jed McKenna, U.G. Krishnamurti, Ram Dass, Fred Davis, Francis Lucille or Rupert Spira. You can read about Papaji or Ramaji, where they remembered their past lives and knew that you can get enlightened to first levels of non-duality and still be reborn. This is the trap in which many of our current spiritual teachers fall into, so beware.
@@EdwardGarb Kinda, yes. I've been taking so much stress after some so called negative life events and striving towards liberation reminding myself that I am Brahman. Now I've decided to surrender instead of striving. Life is hard as one near death experiencer told Jesus to which the lord replied that it is supposed to be hard we can't skip over parts. The imaginary creation and where we find ourselves in the dream and movie of life is mind boggling. A course in miracles is another nondual metaphysical text and it talks about forgiveness and seeing our brother's sinlessness as the way back to your unity consciousness. The ego's dream of separation never really happened in the first place.
