The Consciousness: The Real You - Day 4, The Final Version

"Let the failures be there. Let there be errors for they teach us something no one else can."

~ Sudhir Singh

The Final Truth of Yourself

I believe in it strongly. Man can never be perfect till the last breath. He can never.

Why?

Because our perception itself is not perfect. Our senses see only the half. Rather less than the half.

Then comes the mind, the captain of the ship. It, too, can never see the whole because of the five senses it is using.

After it, there comes the captain's advisor: the intellect. It, too, is imperfect because the captain gives me half information not the whole.

Thereafter comes Drashta. It, too, has only subjective observation based on the intellect. It is closely tied to the triad of perception. It completely depends on mind and intellect.

Then comes Sakshi. It, too, can't dissolve completely because of the scene.

Beyond this is a seed called Brahm which has no storage like mind, intellect, Drashta and Sakshi.

So, it can't help us comprehend the real truth outside. Only the thing it can help to comprehend is the Real You.

As Shree Krishna said about Shetra and Shetragya. 

As in Katha Upanishad, Yam told about the Purusha who is beyond all. Here Purusha isn't about a specific gender. It's about Consciousness. It's about stillness.

So, this is the fourth part: the real you and it comes too spontaneously.

It may seem imperfect but it's the final truth of YOURSELF.

The Consciousness: The Real You, The Imperfect Version

The Seed can never Write Objectively 

The next article on Day 4 of The Rise of Consciousness will be shared tonight.

I have already written it in raw form, but there are still some errors required to be fixed. So, I read it again to give it a final touch. And surprisingly, I found that I had skipped two important points. 

Those are:

1. Reference from the Katha Upanishad

2. Reference from the Gita

I have a problem. When I sit to write, I become subjective.

I try to write the Gita. I try to write the Katha Upanishad. But what comes out is... me.

I don't know why. I try to recall the shloka word to word, but I can't. I am not good in that. My mind does not hold the words. It holds only the experiences, thoughts, ideas and feelings.

And when I write, it becomes subjective.

The problem is, I am not good in recalling word to word, so when I write as I think, I sometimes become too subjective and start writing from my own experience. And my experience can't portrait the whole because I am still learning.

Maybe because I have never read the seed. I have been the seed.

A scholar can write objectively because he has read about the tree. He can tell you how many leaves, how many branches. He is outside.

But I am inside. I am a seed from which everything comes out. How can a seed write objectively about itself?

It can only say: this is what I felt when I was breaking.

Gyan Yoga is like that. It is not a book. It is knowing. And knowing happens inside the "I". So when I write Gyan, I write "I".

Sometimes I skip the main crux. Because the crux for me is not the word. The crux is what the word did to me. What it broke. What it left behind.

Like Katha Upanishad says - there is something that remains after everything goes. For me, that remaining is not a shloka. It is my own experience of Shunaya, of nothing, of "I am" standing alone after body and mind fell.

So I become subjective.

I don't think it is a mistake. But I know the reader gets lost because he has not felt it. He needs a bridge.

So today I will try one thing. I will not try to become perfect. I will keep my subjectivity. But I will put the reference first. Then my experience after.

Shloka first. Then me.

Maybe then you will understand why I become subjective.

Because I am not writing a book. I am writing myself.

Stay in touch.

(Note: It may seem messed up. It's as it is. You put it in order as per your comprehension.)
