The Nisargadatta Maharaj Ultimatum Pointers

The Nisargadatta Ultimatum Pointers

- compiled by Pradeep Apte - read by Prem Daas -

Your destiny is not death

But the disappearance of I am

Allow yourself to relax

and simply allow the words of Nisargadatta Maharaj

to enter into the deepest part of your being.

Simply allow these words, these pointers

to enter into your heart of hearts.

---

Are you a mere body or something else

or maybe nothing at all

Before all beginnings

after all endings

I am

What you are you already are

everything is local and temporary

except you

don't forget what you are

Ultimately I am beyond being

and non-being

Find him who was present at your birth

and will witness your death

Stop imagining that you were born,

have parents or a body that will die and so on

You were never born nor will you ever die

There is a state beyond forgetting

and remembering

The beginning-less begins forever

Find what is it that you have never lost

Overlook the moveable and you will find

yourself to be the ever-present

Whatever happens

I remain

I was never born

how can I grow old

I am neither born nor can I die

I have nothing to remember or to forget

You are beyond the experiencer

ever unborn and deathless

Reality is not an event

it cannot be experienced

for reality neither comes nor goes

There is no such thing as experience of reality

only reality is

there is nothing else

there was no coming

it was so always

You can only be what you are in reality

you can only appear to be

what you are not

What comes and goes has no being

What changes is not real

what is real does not change

Don't pretend to be what you are not

don't refuse to be what you are

Life will escape

the body will die

but it will not affect me in the least

The real does not die

the unreal never lived

You are neither the body nor in the body

there is no such thing as body

The absolute precedes time

the absolute is

Your body is short of time not you

just understand yourself

that itself is eternity

I know for myself

I was never born

Both the subject and the object

exist in you

but you are neither

You are complete here and now

you need absolutely nothing

That which makes you think you are human

is not human

The real is always with you

you need not wait to be what you are

You are not what you perceive

You are yourself without knowing

No happening affects your real being

this is the absolute truth

Transiency is the best proof of unreality

You cannot know your real being

you can only be what you are

Whatever you are changelessly

That you are beyond all doubt

To be

you must be nobody

To know that you do not know

is true knowledge

In reality you were never born

and shall never die

Be nothing

know nothing

have nothing

One can only be it without knowing

What you don't know

that is prior most

Before you acquired this knowledge I am

That is the real estate

Come to the conclusion that you

are not the consciousness

The absolute doesn't know itself at all

When the body dies

you do not die

When everything goes

you are the real

Your true identity is beyond this

quality of I am-ness

The state before you were born

and after you die

is your permanent property

Before the knowledge I am appeared on you

That is Parabrahman

If you revert properly

the consciousness I am will disappear

The Parabrahman

does not know that it is

You are the underlying principle

of consciousness

be in that

The eternal one

is that which you have

never forgotten

Go back to the source

take your stand in

the original state

Beingness is the child of no beingness

The absolute

Prior to witnessing

you are

Something prior to the creation of the body

knows that there is a body

When you did not have the body

complete satisfaction existed

The One who knows these appearances

is the Satguru Parabrahman

The I am-ness is a part of the play

you are prior to the I am-ness

You are not the sound from the

brahmarandra which says I am

The arrival of my beingness

without my knowing

constitutes my parents

How can that

which depends on the body

be the truth?

I prevail prior to anything

I ever exist

Prior to the appearance of childhood

that is my eternal State

I only observe the appearance and

disappearance of beingness

When you didn't know that you were

That is your true state

The one who observes

the being and no being state

is the true state

Only what was before the body

came into existence

will remain after the body dies

Lord Krishna was the unborn

the Nirguna principle

just as you are

You are unborn and

shall ever remain unborn

The world and the mind

everything are unreal

but I am not those

Prior to this identification with the body

you must recede into that

Witnessing of the beingness

happens to the eternal principle

the absolute

I the absolute

never had any experience

that I was alive

I the absolute

have no needs

I ever prevail

The non attention parabrahman state

has no attention I am

Before the beingness was there

look at that

be in that state

Timeless, spaceless existence

doesn’t know it is

that is reality

that is truth

As the eternal principle

you prevail in spite of all happenings

To the absolute witnessing of

the I am-ness occurs

this is the Siddha standpoint

I the absolute

am not this I am-ness

Not knowing is perfection

knowing is imperfection

fraudulent

When the I am goes into oblivion

that is the eternal state

no form, no beingness

There is no question of going into that state

you are in the supreme state

Without reason or cause

the consciousness spontaneously appears

on the absolute

As you get closer to the truth

you will lose interest in worldly affairs

My true nature

is that which was before the body

and consciousness came into being

It is quite simple

all that which is time-bound

is untrue

I am the perfect state

when the I am-ness was not

What was your state

before the I am arose

go back to the source

That which you don't know

is the right state

Throw away everything as useless

after this consciousness has come

In the absolute

there is no need of any kind

even the need to know oneself

Satguru parabrahman

is your true nature

In the absolute

the I am comes

they are not two

Donating the self you get brahma

donating brahma you get parabrahman

The teaching which destroys the individual

is exactly what the individual seeks

You just stumble on the knowledge

that the individual was never there

You are prior to the idea I am

camp yourself there

prior to the words I am

You must recede into the not knowingness

when you are awake

I was

I am and I shall be

in that original state

before the I am-ness came

I am fully established

in that unborn state

I am God

I am the devilty

and I am the worshiping

You must know yourself

devoid of the body sense

The one who expresses

I was not

is secure, stable and eternal

The one who recognizes the imperfect

is perfect and complete

With reference to your true parabrahman state

Maya does not exist

You know what you are not

what you are you cannot know

Prior to knowingness

is the prior most principal

which knows the consciousness

Death is inevitable

so why not accept it right now

that it cannot affect you

What you have heard from me

is to be understood, used and given up

Without the body sense,

I am perfect, total and complete

You are changeless and permanent

You have no beginning and no end

you are eternal

Parabrahman is your eternal state

you cannot remember it because

you have never forgotten it

Go back to your original state

before this consciousness

came upon you

The one which is listening

and you do not know is you

As the absolute

I have no experience of myself

On hearing these words

all your knowledge will evaporate suddenly

and you will be wonderstruck

I as the absolute

do not need this consciousness

Where is the question

when the instrument of questioning

is kept aside

On your not knowing state

suddenly the knowingness has appeared

and created all the mischief

I am before

anything can happen

Knowledge is ignorant

it has a beginning and an end

had it been real it would be eternal

Satguru means the eternal state

which will never change

what you are

The One directed bias at guru

has no more birth

is sadhana

is over

Why die as a body?

Have the highest ambition

so that at least while dying

you are the absolute

One is the absolute

no I am

two is consciousness

I am

Three is space

world

To know you are nothing

is a real liberation

When all your knowledge

including yourself is liquidated

then you are liberated

The unknown is the truth

I have no need of any experience

You are prior to consciousness

in that state there is no pleasure or pain

What am I when this temporary state

is gone and before it comes?

that itself is the search

The ultimate knowledge

does not have any knowledge

If you have really understood

no questions can arise

questions arise only to an entity

As long as you believe you are an entity

spiritual salvation and all this talk

is useless

As an entity you want to know the absolute

it's not possible because

you are the absolute

When you really intuitively understand what I am saying

it's the end of your spiritual search

Prior to consciousness

who is there and with

what instrument one can be conscious?

The state prior to consciousness is always there

right now it is there

Your true identity is a state of not-knowing

total, complete and perfect

This sense of presence

is unreal like a dream

Your true state was there

before the body and consciousness arose

is there now and will be

after the body and consciousness go

Give thought to the state

before experiencing began

Even when the consciousness goes you prevail

you always are as the absolute

It is the consciousness that gets liberated

there is no entity

It must happen that the consciousness

is no longer conscious of itself

Knowingness in its ultimate state

is no knowingness

If you have clearly understood what I am saying

you will have no specific

intention or interest left

Do everything with the understanding

that when the body and consciousness go

you need do nothing

Consciousness disappearing

there will be no sense of presence

but I shall very much be

without the sense of presence

Before the I am arrived

I knew no time

birth, living and death constitute nothing

but time duration

Come to the firm conclusion

that I am nothing

You must have the firm conviction

that you are unaffected by birth and death

No knowing is the highest in the

hierarchy of spirituality

the absolute transcends both

knowing and no knowing

The knowledge in you

which knows change

is itself changeless, permanent

You did and do exist

unto eternity

Everything is beingness

but I, the absolute

am not that

The body form is merely

an opportunity

to experience time

The essence and sum total of this whole talk

is called Satguru parabrahman

that state in which

there are no requirements

I am the principle which

survives all the creations

all the dissolutions

How can questions relating to that

which was prior to the body and consciousness

be answered?

Appearance and disappearance

birth and death

these are qualities of beingness

they are not your qualities

Attain that state

which is and was prior to the body

Movement of the sought gurus feet

begins from no knowingness to knowingness

Holding the Satguru feet

is the borderline between

knowingness and no knowingness

Your true being exists prior

to the arising of any concepts

apprehending this is being dead

to the "I am the body" while alive

When beingness forgets itself

that state is parabrahman

I who am there before consciousness

am not concerned in any way

to all that happens in consciousness

Your conviction should be such

that no question at all should arise

in the future about that

How did I come about?

that is the question which needs investigation

Consciousness never comes or goes

it just appears to have come

Can you live like that

as the non manifest?

How can one who is not born die?

It is only the consciousness

that is going to disappear

the absolute is always there

What a fall

the perfect state caught up in these experiences

and trying to derive certain benefit from them

The meaning of the mantra I have given you

is that you are the manifest dynamic principle

not the body

when you abide in that

you become that

You have identified with the body

but you are not the body

The uniform I am-ness

known through the body is available to you

by all means use it

but understand that you are not the uniform

Once you discard this I am-ness uniform

what remains is the parabrahman

That which is eternally current

is the Parabrahman

Before you were born could you have felt

or sensed or known that you exist

without the body?

Feeling that I am present

depends on having a body

I am neither the body

nor the conscious presence

You should not get involved

in what has appeared

I am not the seed

I am not the phenomena

nor am I the consciousness

which is time-bound

Consciousness alone

feels the expanse of consciousness

but I the absolute am not that

The absolute always remains

There is only one thing to be understood

and that is that you are the formless

timeless unborn

Nobody is dying

because nobody was born

Liberation means

It, consciousness

is no more there

Experience occurs where there is change

if there is no change

there can be no experience

Try to understand what they parents

could be without their bodies

I was possessed by the five elemental ghosts

but having stabilized in the Parabrahman

I know what it is

and I am out of it

Satguru parabrahman is all love

for no knowingness

Everything which gets

consumed, exhausted

is unreal

Prior to your birth

and receiving the message I am

how did you function

what were you?

You are

even before the knowingness

you are

There is only one truth in the world

and that is that everything is unreal

Be what you were prior to the label or title

be that

Give up all that you have read and just be

even the experience that you are is not your true nature

Whatever you are prior to the appearance of I am

that is your true nature

It is sufficient to understand without the slightest doubt

with great conviction that there is a state

prior to the arising of consciousness

There is no individual looking at another individual

the sense of presence is cognizant

other than that there is nothing

Waking, sleeping and the sense of presence

are all temporary states

that have come upon me

I am not the states

Whatever is temporary and time-bound

cannot be the truth

I am totally free because I have understood

the unreality of that, I am

All this play is going on

in the flash of your consciousness

and it will come to an end

When you finally know

that there is no individual

there will be no questions

To ask what is

is the absolute un-manifested?

what appears as if in a dream is the manifested

If you do not take delivery as an individual

but as total functioning that you are

free of whatever is happening

The ultimate is prior to any experience

I am-ness is the beginning of experience

Stabilized in the knowledge I am

and in the process transcend it

You are the absolute

you swallow the entire universe

This body is continuously changing

It was not there

it appeared and it will disappear

it is not you

You were not born at all

only the announcement of your existence is there

You existed even prior to your birth

your existence is eternal but the knowledge that you exist

came about when you were a few years old

Prior to any other recognition

you already are

How can there be the experience of truth?

it is prior to the beingness

Knowingly you cannot go into that beyond time

This consciousness

the one full of concepts

is dead to me, it is gone

I have transcended it

When nothing is

you still are

You, the absolute

watch the consciousness

therefore you are not that

I am the total functioning

every moment millions of years ago

or now

The ultimate principle which knows this beingness

cannot be named at all

The ultimate you can never be lost

you will only lose what you know

When one subsides in one's true identity

nothing matters because nothing is

You are not that I am

you are as the absolute

prior to this I am

Without the feeling of I am

still you are

I abide in the no knowing state

When your individuality is dissolved

you will not see individuals anywhere

it is just a functioning in consciousness

A sound is emanating out of the body

just words

it is not somebody talking

just happening

not doing

The absolute alone prevails

there is nothing but the absolute

When you are that

and convinced so

there is no question of choice

or repeating I am that

I am that

Consciousness has not happened at all

when it tries to understand itself

it gets stabilized in due course in the absolute

The body is of as much use now as it was prior to birth

and after the death

The unborn is enjoying the birth principle

that principle took so much time to understand this

and it is the unborn only that prevails

All my knowledge

has gone into liquidation

I am unconcerned

The presence I am

itself is not there in the absolute

This knowledge I am

this consciousness

has come of a prior state

where there was no consciousness

Only the non I am-ness

can meet the nothingness

In the absolute

there is no knowingness

At the highest level in reality

nothing is

at the worldly level in unreality

everything is

In the process of trying to understand

you get purified

and the process subsides

In the absence of knowingness

where is the question of misery, pain or pleasure?

Stay put in I am nothing

and you will mature quickly

Reject everything

and settle down where there

is no more observation

Everything will go

but you will not go

you will not die

My state is I am

without parents

I am the unborn

Knowledge removes ignorance and itself goes

what remains is the absolute

I am

and I am not

and I am neither

I am certainly not presence

and not even the presence of absence

Knowingness

I am

you are

is the Atman

nothing other than God

The one who has the firm conviction

that except for the I am-ness

there is no other self

he stabilizes in the Parabrahman

All I say will be reduced to illusion

when you reach the highest

Your true nature is such

that it can have no color or design

The highest state is the unborn state

in which there is no experience

That state

in the absence of this beingness

or prior to Maya is the absolute

Abiding in itself

this knowingness is able to quit the state

and abide in the not knowing state

the absolute

You as the absolute

are not the knowledge I am

Only that individual who has lost his individuality

has merged with the parabrahman

Before you occurred to yourself as I am

you were in the highest state

the guru of gurus

parabrahman

Before you knew yourself

that was your true state

Eliminate everything

in that state you will have no color

no design, no form, no name

In the unmanifest absolute

there is no consciousness of

existence at all

The Guru says you are parabrahman

and nothing else

accept that with great conviction

and all that appears will seem to be palpably false

Accepting the Guru's words with total conviction

can transform your entire destiny entire life

I am the Parabrahman only

adhere to this fundamental principle

The deep sense in you

that you are I am

must accept that you are the parabrahman

not the mind

Only a non illusory state

can know the illusory state

The no being state

is the absolute

Braman is manifest

parabrahman is beyond

or prior to that

the absolute

The absolute parabrahman state

is prior to consciousness

it means the unborn state

The eternal means the unborn

the truth is like that

the eternal is like that

The one who recognizes all these time-bound stages

that one is beyond time, is prior to time

stay put there

When the knowingness is transformed into non knowingness

that is the liberation

Whatever happens

you stay put in the confidence

that you are the manifest Brahman or

you are the absolute

Whatever you think is not you

you cannot think about yourself

perceive this clearly and be thought free

To realize and abide in that state

prior to conception

is the highest

Before conception is your most natural and perfect state

it always prevails even after the beingness goes

Before my birth at my conception

who pulled me into the womb

and in what form?

that was possible only

if I had a form prior to conception

There was no need for knowledge

when this beingness was not

Once the seed I am-ness is gone

you are in your eternal state

Right now

I am interested only in that state

eight days prior to conception

the Parabrahman state

Understand the beingness and its play

transcend it

and abide in the state prior to conception

If you have understood what you really are

is there any necessity for spiritual pursuits?

The waking state

sleep, beingness

all this experience combined

is the ignorance only

that ignorance termed as birth means these three

Prior to the appearance of this beingness

you were purely Parabrahman

the absolute

Witnessing happens to the absolute

which is the unborn eternal principle

called the Parabrahman

You, the absolute are not the body

and not even the indwelling beingness

The ultimate principle

is prior to the sphere of subject, object

The absolute non being state

by assuming the being state

becomes dual and manifestation

When the dianna yoga is done correctly

the beingness gradually dissolves into non beingness

My process is Atma yoga

which means abidance in the self

Transcending individuality

one is the manifest beingness only

in this process the unmanifest reveals itself

Unmanifest means total quietude and rest

then there is no birth and death

no coming and going

I the absolute am NOT my beingness

but a witness to it

which is the total manifestation

Not identifying with the body-mind sense

you will first transcend into the beingness

and later you will transcend

the beingness as well

I the absolute

am not the personal I

the personal I cannot tolerate impersonal beingness

and hence fears death

The factual eternal eye

the absolute, has no fear of death

One who transcends time

the beingness and its attributes

abides in the absolute

Prior to, during and after the dissolution

I the absolute ever prevail

untouched, untainted and unchanged

The knowledge I am

is not the absolute

The absolute cannot be understood

whatever you understand

you are not that

in non-understanding

you understand yourself

In the state prior to your birth

you are bereft of waking, sleep and knowingness

abide in that state during meditation

Samadhi will be there

but you the absolute are not in the samadhi

With the transcendence of the knowledge I am

the absolute prevails

the state is called Parabrahman

while the knowledge I am is termed Brahman

The knowledge I am or beingness

is an illusion

When Brahman is transcended

only the Parabrahman remains

without a trace of the knowledge I am

Would there be any necessity of beingness

in the Parabrahman?

The beingness is a superimposition

a cloak of illusion over the absolute

How was I in the absence of the message I am?

that is prior to beingness

Prior to experiencing the I am and the world

I abided in myself

in my eternal absolute state

Without beingness

that is without the message I am

only my eternal absolute state prevails

Who would have witnessed the message I am

if my prior most state of non-beingness was not?

There are no experiences in my eternal state

I alone prevail even without the message I am

When the state of beingness is totally swallowed

whatever remains is that eternal I

Stabilize in the source of your being

and you will transcend time

and ever prevail in eternity

When you are established in the final free state

the knowledge I am becomes non knowledge

When I do not have the knowingness of the I am illusion

the parabrahman state prevails

You prevail forever without identity of

body, form, name or any other illusory datum

How was I before this

sense of being appeared

with the title of birth?

I am-ness appears and dissapears

I the absolute cannot be that

I forever prevail

In spite of your worldly activities

you are unborn

you are apart from all

The Atman is recognized

by understanding the knowledge I am

the Atma Jana

There is no question of the atman

needing to enter the body

since it is already everywhere

You, the absolute

bereft of any body identity are complete,

perfect and the unborn

You never had any birth

forms appearing and disappearing

is a play of the five elements

Where are you in this

and where is the question of your coming and going?

Atman has no birth

it is not created like the body

it is the unborn principle

the brahman

Once you realize you are not the body

then you are one with the consciousness

in due course you transcend the consciousness

and dwell as the highest

The witness of the consciousness

is the highest principle

the absolute

A realized one

having transcended the realm of beingness

ever abides in the eternal absolute

With the fulfillment of jana yoga

all that which is understood is made unreal

Go back one day prior to your conception

which is the parabrahman state

with no needs for anything

Catch hold of the knowledge I am in meditation

and in the process the realization occurs

that I the absolute am not the I am

Atman is not an individual

it feels the sense of being

through a body with senses operating

otherwise Atman does not feel itself

That I, which can discern the absence

of the present I am

prior to conception

must already be there to judge this

Before this appearance

did you have any knowledge?

The knowledge I am means

consciousness, God, Ishwara, guru etc

but you the absolute are not that

This condition is called the Parabrahman

a non experiential state

Go to the root of your beingness

in the process the beingness will be transcended

and the ultimate you only remains

without the knowledge you are

In the ultimate state

you are-ness is totally forgotten

I am or I am not

both are forgotten

this is the highest type of rest

I pleased my I am-ness by understanding it

and in the process also discovered that I, the absolute

am not that I am

The word or feeling I am

that you get inside you is not eternal

but you are eternal and ancient

Before the appearance of beingness or knowingness

I the absolute am already there, eternally

When the beingness is not

you are the absolute

That which is changing

continuously is unreal

no change can be made in the real

World is experiencing

but you the absolute

are non experiential

Prior to birth, this you are-ness

was not associated with you

the absolute

This sense of separate identity

is very limited and totally false

That desultory manifestation

cannot be the real you

How can anyone tell my future

when I am not there at all?

On the absolute

beingness appears and out of that comes illusion

and the illusion occupies the truth

Stay put in the beingness for some time

and that desire will also drop off

then you are the absolute

a most essential state

Abiding in the consciousness

you understand its nature

and you recede

recede and recede

till it disappears and the absolute remains

On my pure absoluteness

which has no place, no shape or form

this knowledge came

which also has no shape or form

therefore it’s an illusion

Understanding the temporary nature of beingness

you also conclude that it is unreal

the one who realizes its unreality

is the eternal

Can you hold on to some identity

that is exclusively yours

that will not disappear?

This I am-ness

is experienced by you

the absolute

but you are not I am-ness

There is no question of duality

because nothing exists except me

only I exist

I very clearly see that which has been born

and I also know that I am not that which is born

and that is why I am totally fearless

This temporary state of consciousness

appears on the original

which is unconditioned

without attributes, without identity

it is called the Parabrahman

If you really find out what you are

you will see that you are not an individual

not a person, not a body

That state in which the beingness is absent

is the eternal state

and because it is eternal

it is the truth

Being Brahma, you lose identification with the body

and in that state you will see

that you are not even Brahman

but the parabrahman

The one who understands while living

that he is Nirguna, quality-less

attribute-less

only he knows parabrahman

Parabrahman is like the name of a city

which does not know whether it exists

or does not exist

being or non being has absolutely

no effect on it

Always keep your identity separate from this body

while doing the working

thinking and talking

it has appeared on you

you are not the body

Whatever appears has really no existence

and whatever has not appeared also drops away

what remains is that

the absolute

If you take yourself as the body

you have forgotten your true self

which is the Atman

When the body falls off

the principle which always remains

is you

In reality there is no death

because you are not the body

Let the body be there or not

your existence is always there

it is eternally

One who is constantly awake to his true nature

having this knowledge about himself

is liberated

Give me a sample of that which you think

is identifying itself with the body

You are prior to this consciousness

and whatever happening in it

you are totally apart from it

now stick to that

The only thing to remember

is that you are separate from this body

and the consciousness

Whatever has come upon your original state

is time-bound

but you are timeless and spaceless

Understanding is a movement in consciousness

which you are not

so there is no question of understanding

or not understanding for you

Just be

and all questions will dissolve

how can questions exist at the beginning

of knowledge?

Drop all identification with the body and name

and then tell me about yourself

Whatever you are about

which you cannot give any information

is most appropriate

that greatest principal you are

The moment you drop individuality

you are the manifest totality

but your true being is apart from the manifest totality

Turia, the birth principle

means where the consciousness is

and the one who transcends that

who knows the Turia is

Turia Tita, beyond consciousness

Whatever information I have prior to birth

that is the only correct information

that knowledge is Parabrahman

You cannot forget your true state

and that is why you cannot remember it

whatever you forget is not the truth

always remember that

The one who knows that the I am is a concept

and will disappear

has no experience of either birth or death

All knowing is objective and impermanent

the one who says I don't understand

that is you

you are that particular thing that says

I don't know

All objective understanding is impermanent

that entity which knows is permanent

which you will never be able to understand

You cannot be something which you are not

you must be perfect right from the beginning

therefore you are that

Self-realization is already there

if you feel that it is not there

you are never going to realize it

No path, no instruction

no method, no technique

you are full

you are all one

you feel you are two, divita

so okay, understand you are not two, advaita

Constantly return to that point from where you

seem to have come

and see if you have really come

whether you are really born

Understand the guests like temporary nature of consciousness

and feel that you have nothing to do with it

Have you any knowledge about a permanent identity within you

which always remains with you and never goes away?

That which you know and see

is not true

and that which says I don't know anything

is your true nature

There is no change in you whatsoever

you are only moving around in ignorance

all over the world

Prior to the appearance of this body

and the knowledge I am

what was there?

Once you understand

that the source and the end are the same point

you are free of it

and you realize I, the absolute

am not this I am-ness

Your real identity has no body

no thought

Effortlessly you are that

the parabrahman

only you must stand for it

with conviction

I am in that state

where beingness and non beingness

do not matter at all

Once you realize the truth

that consciousness has come over you

you will need nothing anymore

Consciousness has come upon me spontaneously

and would go spontaneously

so what is it that I consider as my identity?

When you are in a position to observe

or witness the consciousness

you stand apart from it

The absolute state cannot be remembered

because it cannot be forgotten

The memory of beingness

only appears to exist

Your formless eternal true state

is what you are, swarupa

and to remain in that is your only religion, swadharma

To be stabilized in that beingness

which has no name and form

is itself liberation

The fact is that nothing is born

there is no world

the world appears but it is not there

there is no birth at all

even now there is no birth

The conviction that this world never existed

can happen only to the parabrahman

if this is indeed your conviction

then youare the parabrahman
