Answers can suit the relative mind. In the dream we can be thirsty. But upon awaking from the dream, there's no thirst.
All questions about the Self, fall away in the white light of eternity, in nirvana, because then we have awakened from the dream.
The finite forms have fallen away and we have become God.
So when we wake from the ignorance of this world, the dream of existence, all of the experiences that we have ever had fall away. The ideas of life and death, of rebirth, of reincarnation, karma, God, truth, knowledge - all these things fall away.
While we're in the dream, these are useful notions.
While all the things you believe and know exist in their own right, they're ways of looking at existence, but existence is infinite - it's beyond all ways of looking.
All the concepts, all knowings, all truths, all religous systems, all beliefs, fall away in the white light of eternity.
The dream appears to be real. It does really seem we are here in this world; but this is not so.
At the end of the dream, on the other side of the rainbow, there's only light.
In that undifferentiated reality of the Self there is eternal bliss. All the phantoms of existence fade away.
In deep meditation, all of the things that we call life, all of the combinations of experiences, fall away.
Once we erase ourselves, then there's no eraser. There never was anyone to erase. We've awakened from the dream and the dream has faded.
Sometimes, as we practice jnana yoga, we feel that life has no meaning, no purpose. We feel that there is no reason to try, that life is empty. This is another illusion.
The illusion of purpose is to be avoided. The illuion of lack of purpose is to be avoided.
It might seem that this knowledge is cold, devoid of emotion, empty. This is another illusion.
It is neither favorable nor unfavorable, because no one is there to favor it.
Anything you can say, think, feel, trust or feel is untrue - is an illusion. The fact that there are these things is an illusion.
So in the path of love - rather than pulling our willpower together, using our discrimination, or working - we just cry inwardly.
On the path of love we don't feel we necessarily have control. In the yoga of love we feel it's only God who does everything. We can't breathe one breath without God.
We sit in meditation and cry to God, we cry to the light, as little children, knowing God will do everything for us.
We're too insignificant and small to really be able to do anything, except cry, not unhappily, but an inner cry, a feeling of reaching to God.
Oh God, God, please come to me, please illumine me, please act in me and through me. I don't know what's right and what's wrong. I can't tell anymore. I could be doing what I feel is right and perhaps I'm deceiving myself. Perhaps it's all my ego and my vanity. Please show me what's right or don't even show me. Please just do it, whether it brings me happiness or unhappiness, riches or poverty, sorrow or joy. Please act in and through me. I love only you.
I would like to love more deeply and purely, more completely, and if it is your will, I will do that, if it is not, I won't and I'll accept that. I 'll just love you as best I can and love everyone as best I can.
Please act in and through me. Please let my love increase, if it is your will. I feel that's the right thing; but even if it's not the right thing, I'm willing to abide by your judgment.
In the yoga of love, one has a teacher. It is the teacher whom one loves.
