(Manushya Janma hi Antim Janma Hai)
If man follows the dictates of the scriptures, and lives his life accordingly, then liberation is inherent and natural and he perceives the non-existence of the world. It means that there is only the One Paramatma (Supreme Consciousness, God), where is there a second? All this is going into "Is-Naught" (non-existence), this is the clearly evident point - "Adarshanaadaapatitaa punashchaadarsanam gataa" That which has been born of appearance, later merges into disappearance. All the bodies that are present, were not there hundred years back, and they won't be there after hundred years. As many worlds that exist, they were not there before the "grand creation" (sarga) and will not be there upon "grand destruction" (pralaya). Though not being there previously and later on, they appear as being seen in the middle; because being born of "Naught" it merges into "Naught", therefore in it the truth, the reality is only the sense of "Naught" (not anything, zero, zilch). How can its existence be real? God was there at first, and will remain in the end, therefore in the middle how did God disappear? The Existent-Element is AS-IS in total, in all states. In it, there are no modifications. When the world was not born, then too God was there, and when the entire creation becomes non-existent, then too God will remain. Even while the world exists, then too God remains AS-IS.
Due to the sight, vision being on only the things that are kaleidoscopic and perishing, the vision does not go towards Paramatama (Supreme Consciousness). One becomes entangled in the changing, created and destroyed kaleidoscopic things. The sight never goes towards the foundation of those kaleidoscopic things, their support, their illuminater, that which is free from birth and destruction. This is the truth. In this also there is one vital point. That the vision goes towards that, but we do not see that vision with respect. The most ordinary, the most rural, the least educated man also knows that he will not remain forever. That which is born will eventually die. Even he too has this knowledge, but he does not give importance, significance to this knowledge. He does not respect this understanding. It is due to this that there is a sad plight. If one only respects this understanding, then there is no need for any other education at all. There is no need of the holy Texts. There is no need of Guru. There is no need for any teachings.
Think carefully, that this is perishable and destructible brother. We are only enamored by it ! Think just a little bit, then it will be seen clearly. You too say that what is money ! It is nothing but dirt. You create money, but money does not create you. Things come and go before you. You don't come and go in front of the things. You remain. Even on the coming and going of the body, you do not come and go. You remain ! taking the example of the body and clothes, as man takes off and leaves behind the old clothes, and puts on new clothes, in the same way, he leaves the old body, and takes on a new body. The body comes and goes, but you remain always. This is knowledge. And all have this knowledge. Now you do not value this knowledge, you do not look upon it with esteem. Now you tell me the truth, is it going to stay or is it going to go away?
