That which comes and goes where is it real (permanent)? It is temporary. To become enamored and entangled in it, is a mistake. Have you paid attention or not? This knowledge is visibly evident. You and me can see it clearly, that this world that is there, is in turmoil and constantly changing. No one is permanent. No one remains all the time, but even the temporary appears as permanent; because of the everlasting Essence (tattva) in it. If that Essence was not present, then this would not be seen at all. In the same way, the world which is not steady even for a single moment, such an ephemeral disposition, that too appears as "Is" (existent). That glimpse of "is-ness" in it is of Paramatma (God), that pervades it and as such is "That" (God) only. Therefore it is said – "Vasudeva Sarvam" "All is only God". This all is God only. In "this" is not every thing, rather in that place is that alone who is "Vasudeva" (God). Previously it was Him, in the end it will remain Him then in the middle, where will someone else come from? From the perspective of "viveka" (discrimination), that which will remain, have your signt on that Essence. It is every man's self-evident wealth. For this reason, it is the last of many births.
Let us say this discrimination is natural. This discrimination (vivek), does not have to be invoked. This knowledge is not born. Only one's attention (sight) has to go towards that "IS" (Existent). The mistake we make is that our attention (sight) is drawn towards that which is "Naught" (non-existent, the temporal), we see their "Is-ness." We give existence to that which is "Naught", that is the mistake that is made. Do not give power to the "Naught". Give power to that which "Is". That which is not still even for a single moment, that is "Sarvam" (All), and that Essence which remains eternally is "Vasudeva". If you get to know it, then now, there is no more cause of birth, because it is only on having affinity with the "gunas" (modes of nature) birth takes place, and if you do not assume a relationship with the modes of nature, then liberation is axiomatic. That Essence which is beyond all is naturally present, and all the knowledge through which this is illumed, that knowledge is also naturally present.
This is a story that took place many years back. We came to Nimaaj, a city in Rajasthaan , from the outer skirt gardens and were climbing the outer door to enter in, at which time the point that was recollected was "Aabrahmabhuvanaallokaah punaraartinorjuna" People are returning from the World of Brahma. In this even Brahma, becomes still. What a long day of Brahmaji ! What a long night of Brahmaji ! And due to these long day and nights, Brahmaji's life span is so very long. That Brahmaji also is born and perishes, in the same manner. We have this knowledge, this knowledge is so great ! Even if infinite Brahmajis come and go, then too this knowledge remains as-is. On remaining established in that knowledge, where is the birth and death? In knowledge there is no birth and death. One has to give importance to this knowledge. It is only for giving importance to this knowledge and understanding that we have received this human birth and it is only in human birth that one can attain this knowledge.
