While possessing a thing, we exist, and even when the thing does not remain with us, we exist. When a person is living with us, we exist and we continue to exist even when he is not with us. We exist while performing some activity and even when we are not performing the activity, we exist. Everyone has got the experience of these two situations. This proves that our existence is not dependent on any thing, person or activity.

The unreal has no existence and the real never ceases to be - It means that whatever reality is seen, that belongs to eternal reality and not to the unreal world. No one can ever deny the existence of this eternal reality. Someone believes in the existence of God and someone in the existence of the soul and someone believes in the existence
of material world. If someone says that he does not believe in any kind of existence, then at least he believes in his own existence! The meaning is that all accept in some or the other form the eternal existence (is), may be that they give it any name. No one can reject the reality of existence (or deny it). The reason being that by denying existence, will be denial of one’s own existence, whereas no one ever feels the absence of one’s own existence.

One whose existence is never absent i.e. which exists in every place, time, object, person, activity, situation etc., that reality is not achieved by performing any activity. The reason is that which is ever present is never non-available. When we do something, then it shall be achieved, such type of thinking strengthens body consciousness. Every action has a beginning and an end, therefore only that thing will be acquired by action which does not exist. But it is because of his affinity for Nature that in every being there is an impetus to act, which does not enable him to be free
from action. It is necessary to stop the flow of activities, that which is not to be done, should not be done and that which has to be done, should be done by being non-egotistical and desireless i.e. nothing should be done for the welfare of others. The impetus of activities shall never come to an end if one performs actions only for one’s own self; since our existence is always eternal and the actions are transient. Therefore by performing actions for the benefit of others, the impetus for action will be pacified and the association with nature shall come to an end and the existential reality present in all places, time etc., will be revealed and realized.
