So if I am
everything that is – the all knowing limitless Brahman (Brahman
means absolute pure consciousness), then how come I seem not to know
the truth about myself? How come it seems that I am inside a
body, inside a world, totally cut off from everything around me?
Well, in
truth there is no separation, there never was any. There is just a
misapprehension of reality. Nothing more than a wrong idea about it -
the idea that there is me, and there is something else, when in fact
there is just me appearing as what I experience, and part of what I
experience is a wrong idea about who I am.
It's
nothing but a thought in awareness.
The
practise of self knowledge is to take the point of view of awareness,
because I am awareness, and everything appears in me. I am the
substrate, the immovable absolute which lends its being to
everything.
