LAGHU YOGA VASISTHA
without existence, the non-dual and the ineffable
One beyond the reach of thought. How can
Parabrahman which is unthinkable be the Cause?
How can it be the actor or enjoyer? Therefore this
universe is not in the least created by any one, nor
is it self-created. The Supreme Sankalpa of that
Absolute Consciousness is Brahma. Nought else is
but the one true Jnana, All the created objects out
of that Jnana are said to be no other than the form
of that Jnana. All here are Brahman itself devoid of
re-births. Therefore, it is neither an actor nor
enjoyer. Having thus convinced yourself of the one
Reality, if you destroy the Ajnana (ignorance)
within your heart, then it will cease to have any
resurrection. Through no other path than the
destruction of these excessive Karmas can the
delusion, which has become in us a certainty,
vanish. If the Ajnana in us fades away gradually,
then the conception of the certainty attributed to
the universe will diminish and the Brahmic state
will be attained. Such a mind through the allpervading
Jnana, viz., the primeval god,
Paramatman, into which it is absorbed, will ever be
evolving fresh creations (through its Sankalpa).
