Who Died In The End?

Sharing here :

A Whatsapp Message received from a friend.

Two friends, both busy on their mobiles one reading a book, and another busy with his mobile were chatting.

The One busy with the mobile asked to the other :

Who died in the end?

The first replied :

The battery !

This evoked in me the following lines :

प्राणाश्च चेतना चापि न नश्यन्ते न च जायन्ते 

पञ्चभूतात्मकं जगदपि को ततः मृत्युमानोऽत्र।।

Then this came to mind :

न जायते म्रियते वा कदाचन

नाऽयं भूत्वाऽभविता च भूयः। 

अजो नित्यो शाश्वतमयं पुराणः

न हन्यते हन्यमाने शरीरे।।

(गीता)

And in the end another stanza of Kabir :

मन मरे माया मरे मर मर गए शरीर। 

आशा तृष्णा ना मरी कह गए दास कबीर।।

अथ फलश्रुति:

No one dies!

Death is but a thought that keeps on appearing and disappearing moment to moment, and even it is in a way,

Immortal Deathless!

Be Happy here, now and always, for Death exists not!!

Learning and Knowing.

How many "selves" and "Worlds"?

It's difficult to say if  the Exploration into Knowing beyond the Known  / the Obvious, iginited and prompted  within me the spark  of attention the Timeless attribute or, The Essence of  the consciousness, the manifest it-self, induced spirit of exploration into the Unknown, within me.

Just because consciousness and the attention, are not different from each-other, and as one, are the ever-present, a single phenomenon the Reality as well.

Languages especially that are spoken by man however work always within the region of Known only, giving rise to the idea of an objective "World"  appearing outside ourselves,  somewhere "there". Because of the predominating ignorance of the nature of the existence of our own Reality only, we're caught into the idea that this "World" as "other" than the "self", exists independently and permanantly on its own, and we believe it's true!

A human language furthers this basically a false idea of a "World" different and "other" than from our individual "self" and under the impression of this false notion, our attention is never drawn to the simple, pure truth that the "self" and this "assumed World" together constitute the whole and the only existence.
