Sai Ram Brothers and Sisters,
The ego comes into man from outside. Notice how a
child talks in the third person about itself. The
mind goes out and brings in information and illusion.
If one is hypnotised and told that a view from the
window is a surf beach or whatever, one will see that,
whether it is true or not. So it is our mind that sees
not the eyes. The mind is none other than a bundle of
thoughts. Mental illness is a point in the field where
a contradiction breaks out. This manifests as
schizophrenia etc. This is from my own experience of
course, not I but family members.
What we are in the body apart from the ego is the
life-force, energy, prana, sakti. When the life-force
leaves then we say that the body has died. This is the
power and experiencing of the divinity within. Within
illusion of course.
The energy, including the body, is divided up into the
concepts of sheaths or kosas. The same ONE energy has
different names and titles, according to function. So
when a large concentration of energy, vital sheath,
leaves the body, permanently, it dies. The vehicles
move on so to speak, and what takes a new body are the
impressions and tendencies.
A new imaginary ego/personality develops in this new
environment influenced by the past impressions and
tendencies. So as individuals we really don't exist,
we are the whole Sakti/Energy/God. Even this is of
course an illusion. This so-called human soul is just
aggregates and energy, not really separate from the
whole. Anymore than a whirlpool is separate from the
sea. Beyond this is Bliss, if we can but 'remember'.
Love and Sai Ram, Tony.
