You and You Alone


You and You Alone
(Tu Hi Tu)

Shree Hari
continued.....
Prakriti (Nature) and the one with the Nature (Prakriti) (power and the one with the power) while being one, they are two and while being two, they are one. It is the One that is seen in the various forms, and while appearing in various forms, is One.

God says -
Manasa Vachasaa Drushtvaa Gruhyatenairpeeindryaih |
Ahameva na mattonyaditi budhyadhvamanjasaa || (Srimad Bhagwat 11/13/24)

Through the mind, speech, and other senses, whatever is perceived, all that is Me and beyond Me there is nothing else you should quickly understand i.e. accept this doctrine.

Aatmaiva tadidam vishvam srujyate srujati prabhuh
Traayate traati vishvaatma hryate harateeshvarah ||

Whatever thing is visible or not visible, is the almighty God only. That God is the creator of the world and He Himself becomes the world. He alone is the protector of the world, and He alone is the protected. That Lord who is the soul present in all, is the destroyer of all in this world and that which is destroyed, that world is also Him only."

It has come in the Taittereeyopanishad that -

Ahamnnamhamnammahamnnam | Ahamnnaadohamnaadah || (3/10/6)

"I am the food and I am also the one eating the food."

By giving existence to the world, by regarding it as one's own, and experiencing the need for it, man sees himself as distant, separate and having differences from God. Therefore an aspirant should want to accept God as his very own and experience the need for God. By abiding in these two points, an aspirant severs relationship with the world and will experience closeness, inseparability and oneness with God. The point is that as long as an aspirant accepts the existence of anything other than Paramatma, till then he remains distant, separate and different from God. Besides the One God, there is nothing else. On experiencing the one reality, (Essential Nature), distance, separation and differences come to an end and the aspirant becomes one with the goal (God).
