Q mark BREATH.............

Q: Is it not karma that causes rebirth?.......drugs and karma

Q: Is it not karma that causes rebirth?
M: You may change the name, but the fact remains. What is the drug which you call karma or destiny? It made you believe yourself to be what you are not. What is it, and can you be free of it? Before you go further you must accept, at least as a working theory, that you are not what you appear to be, that you are under the influence of a drug. Then only will you have the urge and the patience to examine the symptoms and search for their common cause. All that a Guru can tell you is: ‘My dear Sir, you are quite mistaken about yourself. You are not the person you think yourself to be.’ Trust nobody, not even yourself. Search, find out, remove and reject every assumption till you reach the living waters and the rock of truth. Until you are free of the drug, all your religions and sciences, prayers and Yogas are of no use to you, for based on a mistake, they strengthen it. But if you stay with the idea that you are not the body nor the mind, not even their witness, but altogether beyond, your mind will grow in clarity, your desires -- in purity, your actions -- in charity and that inner distillation will take you to another world, a world of truth and fearless love. Resist your old habits of feeling and thinking; keep on telling yourself: ‘No, not so, it cannot be so; I am not like this, I do not need it, I do not want it’, and a day will surely come when the entire structure of error and despair will collapse and the ground will be free for a new life. After all, you must remember, that all your preoccupations with yourself are only in your waking hours and partly in your dreams; in sleep all is put aside and forgotten. It shows how little important is your waking life, even to yourself, that merely lying down and closing the eyes can end it. Each time you go to sleep you do so without the least certainty of waking up and yet you accept the risk..........CH..86. The Unknown is the Home of the Real...nisargadatta

AWAKE...DREAM....SLEEP

Who says you are unaware in sleep? It is your
mind. But there was no mind in your sleep? Of
what value is the testimony of the mind about your
existence or experience during sleep? Seeking the
testimony of the mind to disprove your existence or 94 Maharshi’s Gospel
awareness during sleep is just like calling your son’s
evidence to disprove your birth!
Do you remember, I told you once previously that
existence and awareness are not two different things
but one and the same? Well, if for any reason you
feel constrained to admit the fact that you existed in
sleep be sure you were also aware of that existence.
What you were really unaware of in sleep is your
bodily existence. You are confounding this bodily
awareness with the true Awareness of the Self which
is eternal. Prajnana, which is the source of ‘I-am’-
ness, ever subsists unaffected by the three transitory
states of the mind, thus enabling you to retain your
identity unimpaired.
Prajnana is also beyond the three states, because it
can subsist without them and in spite of them.
It is that Reality that you should seek during your so
called waking state by tracing the aham-vritti to its
Source. Intense practice in this enquiry will reveal
that the mind and its three states are unreal and that
you are the eternal, infinite consciousness of Pure
Being, the Self or the Heart.
