ENLIGHTENMENT BY SELF-INQUIRY–pt188
[The Teaching of Non-Duality has been adapted from Master Nome, disciple of Sri Ramana Maharshi. Sections appended below derive from Sri Ramana's Teaching.]
When you grieve over something in this World, it is just one part of your Mind saddened by another part. When you become confused by something in the World, it is just one part of your Mind bewildered by another part. Have you ever had an experience of the World that is not Sensory ? The Sound, the Sight, etc., are the Seeing, the Hearing, etc. We never experience the World. We experience only the Senses. The actual Sense Objects are not experienced, but only the Sensing. It is the appearance of the Sensing that is the Sense object, & apart from the Sense Objects, there has never been an experience of the World.
[Sri Ramana]
To whom is the Illusion ? Find it out. Then Illusion will vanish. Generally people want to know about Illusion & do not examine to whom it is. Illusion is outside & unknown. But the seeker is considered to be known & is inside. Find out what is immediate, intimate, instead of trying to find out what is distant & unknown.
