WORD IS THE WORLD.

P O E T R Y

--

There Is The Void,

The Great Endless and,

The Beginningless Vast,

Where There Is, 

Neither The World,

Nor The Word,

And The Attention Only, 

Reins Supreme.

Neither Lonely, Nor Alone,

For It Knows Nothing, 

Apart From Itself.

But Then In An awkward Moment,

Appears The Twin, 

The Word And The World,

Entwined Together, 

So Close, So Distant, 

From One-Another,

Like A Twin-star In The Dark Sky. 

And One Tends To Believe, 

The Two Are But One And The Same.

As The One Appears, 

The Another is List Of Sight, 

And One Just Forgets, 

The Two Are But One! 

Just Like You,

I Too Have Heard,

In The Beginning,

There Was But God (Alone?),

I Just Wander,

If God (Alone?) Was There,

Wasn't There The Other, 

The So-called Past!,

Beside The God? 

So I Think,

There Is Nver, 

Either A Past, 

Or A Future,

That Was Or Will Be Ever! 

And The God Utters A Word, 

In His Extreme Utter Solitude, 

And The Word Appears,

And At Once Becomes The World. 

And Though,

The Word Replicates Itself, 

In Infinitely, A Myriad Forms,

It's None Other Indeed, 

The God (Alone?).

Replicating Himself

Time And Again, 

Moment To Moment. 

The Moment, The Word, 

And The World Too, 

Appear And Disappear,

And The God Too Apoears

And Disappears With Them!

It's The One-Man Show, 

That Appears To Go on, 

Endless And Beginningless.

GOD, WORLD and Consciousness.

Could we possibly define what we may call -  God?

The World and the Consciousness are the obvious Realities and need not be defined. However, the God is always so uncertain and such a concept that one could only think of but never know if it exists really an essential Principle or is but a fictitious idea only in the mind.

Mind is consciousness, Or we could also say consciousness is mind as well.

The world is a continuity of experiences and perceptions in the consciousness.

The World and the consciousness are neither mutually different and distinct nor other than the perceptions.

Out of these Two principles, namely the World and the consciousness, emerges out the assumption of quite another an entity that is called the God.

Finding out, Exploring and Discovering the Underlying Essential Principle that is the Timeless and Ever Existent Truth implies there is consciousness where-in the Existence appears to be something like the World and all the Perception.

So God could easily be ruled out from this consideration.

Only because of the assumption and the erroneous idea of the "self" associated with the non-dual consciousness that is the only ignorance.

What is understood by this word - the Ignorance too is again only a name or a verbal situation and never a happening that could really be felt or experienced.

Ignorance as such is therefore only an abstract notion that becomes kind of a belief.

Even if there is something which or someone Who might be called God, a Superior Omniscient, Omnipotent and Omnipresent consciousness that is said to create, to maintain and ultimately to annihilate its creation, that may not be different and distinct other than this World and the consciousness. We can perhaps say this is the only Non-Dual Reality. It could therefore neither be a Superior nor inferior to the All That Is, is seen, known, and is experienced. We could further extend It to a so-called a Beginningless Time and an expanse in terms of limitless Space. 

In conclusion, no distinction any as the object and the subject in this perception of God and the "self " could be there. If this could be agreed upon, there is also neither the independent "Action" - the "Karma", nor a virtue or a sin and the consequences. But as soon as "self" is given reality, at once the idea of the one "Who" is supposed to perform such an  "Action" and has to experience, and go through the consequences assumes an apparent existence. This is verily the "Bondage" and has neither a beginning nor an end in sight. Though one may go on trying there is no release whatever.

तपस्विभ्योधिको योगी ज्ञानिभ्योऽपि मतोऽधिकः।

कर्मिभ्योश्चाधिको योगी तस्माद्योगी भवार्जुन।।४६।।

Who's Who?

So I knew!

Me / self is Ego, Ego is Thinker,

Alter-ego is Thought!

I'm none of all that!
