LAGHU YOGA VASISTHA
Truly does Brahman pervade all. All these are the
non-dual Jnanakasa alone. Bondage and Moksha
do not truly exist (but are relative only). The
attributeless, great Brahman alone pervades
everywhere as the shining Atman. The mind
being extinguished, discern the unity of all through
thy intelligence. If Atmic Reality is fully cognized
then differences between trees, mountains', clothes,
etc. will vanish. With them, Sankalpas will also be
swept away. If Chidabhasa (the distorted
consciousness) as well as objects in this world are
scrutinized from the beginning to the end, it will be
found that they reach the defectless quiescent state.
May you ever be in that quiescent state. Through
the mind associating itself with dualities as well as
the illusions of birth and death, the incomparable
Reality manifests itself as names and forms, like
water appearing as waves, foam, bubbles, etc.
What enjoyment can bring under its clutches those
who are, through their introvision, following the
path of Brahman? Delicious enjoyments and other
enemies of spiritual progress never agitate minds
engaged in intense inquiry into spiritual truths.
