We won't die! Sensational scientific basis for eternal consciousness. I am Infinite Consciousness Unlimited Consciousness

Believe that I am That Ancient One. Don't doubt it for a moment. There is not the slightest possibility for me to be anyone else. I am not the body you see. This is only the coat I wear when I visit you. I am Infinite Consciousness. I sit with you, play and laugh with you, but at the same time I work on all levels of existence.

Before me are saints and perfect saints and masters of the early stages of the spiritual path. They are all different forms of me. I am the Root of everyone and everything. An infinite number of branches grow out of me. I work through each of you, I suffer in each of you and for each of you.

My bliss and my endless sense of humor sustain me in my suffering. Funny incidents that happen at no one's expense lighten my burden.

Think of me, remain cheerful in all your trials and I will be with you, helping you.

I am the song

My extraordinary experience of the State of Life After Death is so extraordinary that I simultaneously experience being everything and above everything. I am the song, its words and its melody, and I am the singer. I am musical instruments, musicians and listeners. And at your level, I explain to you the meaning of what I, the singer, sing about.

Infinite Knowledge

Nothing can be hidden from Him who is present everywhere, since He is everywhere. And it naturally follows that if nothing can be hidden from Him, then He must also be Omniscient, knowing everything.

Infinite Knowledge is seeing everything at the same time, seeing it now. This knowledge has neither beginning nor end, it is indivisible and continuous, nothing can be added to it and nothing can be taken away.

This knowledge allows God to know at this moment what He knew happened countless eons ago, and it allows Him to know what will happen countless eons from now, it makes everything known to God at the same time and now. This is the Knowledge of Perfect Masters and Avatars.

In terms that are simpler for you, this means that what you know at this moment as people I knew eons ago, and what you will come to know at some point, I know now.

Universal Body

The Imagination of God gives rise to the Universal Mind, the Universal Energy and the Universal Body, which contain the individual minds, individual energies and individual bodies of every thing and every being in Creation.

The Universal Mind, the Universal Energy and the Universal Body exist due to the Imagination of God, which exists as a Non-existence in the Infinitely Eternal and Bee-pervasive existence (God).

Individual minds, individual energies and individual bodies do not have their own existence, but exist only as effects in the existing Non-existence.

My Universal Body contains all the gross bodies of all the innumerable beings and things in Creation. Individual subtle bodies (energies) and mental bodies (minds) are part of my Universal Energy and Universal Mind. There is no division either in the Universal Energy or in the Universal Mind.

The distance between a drop here and a drop there does not create any difference in the relation of each drop to the ocean. Any drop in the ocean is within the integrity and homogeneity of the ocean.

There are no divisions in Paramatma, only the One Indivisible Ocean of Reality exists as Eternal Existence.

Experience everything in a flash

How do I know everything? The nature of an infinitely complex phenomenon - the Universe - is infinitely simple. But it is infinitely difficult to know and understand. When you know what the Universal Mind, the Universal Energy and the Universal Body are and what their relation is to the individual mind, individual energy and individual body, then you will understand how the Perfect Master knows everything.

This all-encompassing Knowledge is acquired in a flash. But to know everything in a flash, you need to spend an eternity in illusion while you gradually die to yourself. This dying to self means losing yourself completely in God in order to find your True Self as God.

This dying of your false is not an easy task; bringing a corpse back to life is child's play compared to this.

Knowing and not knowing

Being superior and becoming inferior, I manifest Knowledge and assume ignorance at the same time.

And although I know that something specific will happen within a month, I can make plans as if it had not happened years in advance. On the other hand, knowing that an event will not happen for several years makes me appear to expect it to happen soon.

In Dnayan (Knowledge) there is Adnayan (Ignorance or Ignorance). But in Adnayan there cannot be Dnayan. With all the knowledge of the highest level, I can take upon myself the complete ignorance of your level. In fact, I am Infinite Knowledge, and as such, I know what will happen hundreds of years from now, although I profess ignorance when I am on your level.

Even on a gross level and in ordinary circumstances, knowledge and ignorance can appear simultaneously. For example, you say: “I don’t know how to swim.” This implies that you know that you don't know how to swim. If you didn't know that you don't know, you wouldn't have this understanding. This is "knowledge of ignorance."

In exactly the same way, I, who am Knowledge itself, exhibit ignorance of knowledge. Knowing everything, at the same time I seem ignorant.

Will and restlessness

Duality implies separation. Separation causes fear. Fear brings anxiety.

The path of Unity is the path to happiness, the path of multiplicity is the path to restlessness.

There is no other me in me, therefore, I am eternally happy. You are separated from your True Self, therefore you are always worried.

What you see is absolutely real for you, but for me it is absolutely false.

I alone am Real, and my will rules the cosmic illusion. It is true when I say that waves do not flow and leaves do not move without my will.

The moment the intensity of your faith in my will reaches its heights, you say goodbye to worry forever. Then all that you have suffered and enjoyed in the past, together with all that you might experience in the future, will be to you the most loving and direct manifestation of my will, and nothing can make you worry anymore.

Live more and more in the Present, which is always beautiful and extends beyond the boundaries of the past and the future.

If you have to worry about anything at all, then worry about remembering me all the time. It's worth it because it will bring an end to your worries.

Think about me more and more, and all your worries will disappear into nothingness, for they are nothing. My will is working to awaken you to this.

mockery on my chest

As the Highest of the Highest, I am the Wisest of the Wise, and yet I allow myself to do things more stupid than any fool would allow himself. What's the stupidest thing I've ever done? Creation of CREATION.

Creation is truly a great joke, but at my expense, and now the mockery weighs heavily on my chest. Sometimes I'm so tired that I'm ready to sleep for 700 years.

For a fool, a stupid act is the most natural and easiest. But can you imagine the Wisest, going out of his way and striving to commit an act contrary to his Wisdom! That's why I say you don't even know what I mean when I talk about fatigue: it is beyond human understanding.

Knowledge

Sadhguru should not know, He knows. He knows there is nothing to know.

Intentions

Some exist to hate others, be jealous of others and make them unhappy, there are also some who exist to love others and make them happy. He who has become One with God exists for everyone - both good and bad. And in order to become One with God, a person must not renounce anything other than himself.

Meaning

There is no point in understanding. Love has meaning. Submission makes even more sense. Supporting my “hyrax”* is the greatest meaning.

Suffering

I know three things:

I am Avatar in all meanings of the word.

Everything I do is an expression of my unlimited love.

I suffer forever, experiencing endless agony because of your ignorance.

* “Daman” - clothing.

Maya illusionist

Maya, the Master Illusionist who makes worlds seem to exist out of Nothing, will perform her masterful tricks, causing everything, including my health, energy, words and promises, to clearly go against me, and the faith and trust of those in love with me will be tested to the fullest. But Maya is powerless against my Work, since Maya itself is the instrument with which I realize the results of my Work.

As the instrument of the embodiment of my Work, Maya, in fact, actually does everything she can to bring about the greatest results of this Work. Maya is the endless shadow of the infinity of God, and, having no existence other than that in non-existence, must naturally open the way to the only Reality, which is God. And then God shows His greatness.

When the sun rises above the horizon, the shadow cast by an object is much larger than the object itself, but when the sun is directly overhead, the shadow lies under your feet as if it merges with the object.

In my present state of helplessness and humiliation, the rays of the Sun of Truth appear dim and weak, and the Shadow of Maya appears large. But when this Sun is at its zenith, the Shadow cast by Man, which dominated his gaze and thought, will disappear. Such will be the victory over Maya when ignorance is erased by the greatness of the manifestation of God through me.

Keep your faces turned towards the Sun and your shadow of individualized Maya will lie behind you and, although still existing, will have no power over you. But if you turn your back to the Sun, your shadow will be in front of you and you will follow it. Although you cannot free yourself from your shadow, if you hold it behind your back and continue to look at the Sun, then at the time of His full rise and majesty, your shadow will disappear forever.

Every person is afraid of death. But do we die along with our body? The outstanding scientist of our time, Robert Lanza, found the answer to this question and proved that our consciousness exists in an infinite number of parallel universes outside of space and time. How is this possible? Read more in our article!

The book “Biocentrism: How Life and Consciousness are the Key to Understanding the True Nature of the Universe” simply blew up the Internet with its loud statement that life does not actually end with the death of the body, but lasts forever.

The author of this book, scientist Robert Lanza, whom the New York Times has hailed as one of the most successful scientists of our time, believes that the theory of eternal consciousness is absolutely sound and at least close to the truth.

Beyond time and space

Lanza is an expert in regenerative medicine and scientific director of the Society for Advanced Cellular Technologies. Before he became famous for his stem cell research, the scientist conducted a number of successful experiments in cloning endangered animal species.

In addition, Lanza recently began to study physics, quantum mechanics and astrophysics. This interesting combination became fertile ground for the creation of the theory of biocentrism, which the professor is currently studying. Biocentrism teaches that life and consciousness are the basis of the Universe, and that it is consciousness that creates the material world, and not vice versa.

By studying the structure of the Universe, its laws and constants of basic forces, Lanza suggests that intelligence existed before matter. He also argues that space and time are not objective and real things. They, in the understanding of the scientist, are only instruments of our animal understanding of life. Lanza argues that we actually carry space and time in our heads, like turtles carry their shell. This means that people exist even outside of time and space. The theory of biocentrism suggests that the death of consciousness is impossible, and that people are mistaken in identifying themselves with their bodies.

We believe that the body will die sooner or later, and that our consciousness will immediately die along with it. This is what would happen if the body created our consciousness. But what if the human body receives consciousness in the same way that it receives a cable TV signal? Then it becomes clear that consciousness continues to exist even after it leaves its physical shell. In fact, consciousness does exist beyond time and space. It can be located anywhere: both in the body and outside it.

Lanza also believes that several parallel Universes exist simultaneously. If in one Universe the body dies, then in another it still exists and absorbs the consciousness that left the first version of the Universe. This means that a person who dies ends up not in heaven or hell, but in a world similar to the one in which he lived. And this happens again and again.

An infinite number of Universes

The interesting and popular theory of parallel Universes today has a huge number of supporters, including many famous scientists who adhere to precisely this view of the structure of life. Among them are physicists and astrophysicists who are absolutely confident in the existence of parallel worlds, which, in their opinion, may indicate the possible existence of an infinite number of Universes. They claim that there are no physical laws that prevent the existence of parallel worlds.

This idea was first described by science fiction writer Herbert Wales in 1895. 62 years later, Dr. Hugh Everett studied it and made the assumption that at any given time the Universe is divided into countless similar parts. In one of these Universes you are now reading this article, and in another you can watch TV.

“The biggest determining factor in breaking the universe apart is our actions,” says Everett. When we make our choices, the Universe is immediately divided into several Universes, each containing different consequences of our actions.

Andrei Linde, a scientist from the Lebedev Physical Institute, developed the theory of the multiplicity of Universes back in the 80s. He currently works at Stanford University. Linde explains that the Universe consists of a large number of spheres, which create similar spheres, which, in turn, then produce new spheres in even greater numbers, and so on ad infinitum. These spheres are completely independent of each other, but they represent different parts of the same physical world.

The fact that our Universe is not unique is confirmed by data obtained with the Planck telescope. Scientists are using this data to create the most accurate map of cosmic radiation that has existed since the beginning of the Universe. They also discovered that there are a lot of black holes in the Universe. Theoretical physicist Laura Mersini-Houghton of the University of North Carolina argues that such anomalies arise because surrounding universes are intensely influencing our universe, and that black holes are the most obvious consequence of such influence.

Scientific explanation of the existence of the soul

Thus, you and I have already learned that there are many places, or many different Universes, into which our soul can be moved after the death of the body, in accordance with the theory of neo-biocentrism. But is there a scientific theory of consciousness that substantiates this claim? Yes, such an explanation exists, and its essence lies in what happens to consciousness during clinical death. According to Dr. Stuart Hameroff, clinical death occurs when quantum information residing in the nervous system leaves the body and dissipates into the universe.

He argues that human consciousness resides in the microtubules of brain cells, which are the main center of quantum information processing. After death, this information leaves the body along with our consciousness. The scientist believes that our soul is the result of quantum gravitational effects occurring in these microtubules.

Thus, our consciousness creates the Universe, and not vice versa. What happens in our head is inextricably linked with what happens in the outside world. A person simultaneously exists in several parallel Universes, and our future depends only on what we do and choose today. And most importantly, our consciousness is eternal!

Sikidwaya said:

I understand, O wise one, that in God there is neither peace nor sense of ego. But how is it that the world and the ego-sense seem to exist?

Kumba replied:

Verily, this immensity, beginningless and infinite, exists as pure perceptive consciousness. Only this is a huge universe, which is like his body. There is no other substance called intellect, just as there is neither externality nor emptiness. The essence of existence is pure sensation, which is the essence of consciousness. Just as fluidity exists only without separation from the liquid, so consciousness and unconsciousness exist only without separation from each other. There is no rational justification for such an existence, because it is what it is.

Therefore there is no contradiction or division in the self-evident consciousness.

If infinite consciousness were the cause of something else, how could it be considered indescribable and incomparable? That's why Brahman is neither the source nor the cause. What then can be considered a consequence? Therefore it would be wrong to associate this creation with Brahman or to associate the inert with the infinite consciousness. If peace or ego feeling arises here, then both of them are empty words for fun.

Consciousness cannot be destroyed. But even if such destruction is imagined, then the consciousness imagining this is free from destruction and from creation. If such destruction can be imagined, it is undoubtedly one of the focuses of consciousness. Therefore, there is only consciousness, not one and not many! Enough of these discussions already.

Because If there is no material existence, then there is no thinking. There is no peace, no sense of ego. Be constantly calm and peaceful, free from mental limitations, whether you are in the body or out of the body. When the reality of Brahman is understood, there is no room for worry and suffering.

Sikidwaya said:

Saint, I pray you, explain everything to me so that I have no doubt that there is no reason.

Kumba said:

O king, truly there is not and never has been anything called reason. That which shines here and is known as the mind is infinite consciousness. Not understanding its true nature gives rise to the concept of mind and peace and everything else. Even if these are insignificant concepts, can “I” and “you” be called real? There is no world, and what seems to exist is not created. All this is truly Brahman. How can it be known and by whom?

Even at the very beginning of this cycle of creation, this world was not created. He was described by me as a creature so that you would understand. In the complete absence of any causal factors, none of this could have been created at all. Therefore, all that exists is Brahman and nothing more. It is not even logical to claim that a nameless and formless God created this world! This is not true. When the creation of this world is seen as a completely wrong idea, then the mind in which the concepts of creation arise is also unreal.

Reason is a tangle of concepts that limit truth. Such a limitation implies the potential divisibility of truth. But infinite consciousness is indivisible, there are no divisions in it. Can then the mind that divides be real? Everything that seems to exist here is felt in Brahman, by Brahman, and such a feeling is politely called mind! Only infinite consciousness is spread out here in the form of this world. Why do we then call it the world? In the space of infinite consciousness, every small manifestation is only a reflection of consciousness in itself - and therefore there is neither mind nor world here. It is only out of stupidity that all this is seen as “the world.” Therefore the mind is unreal.

Thus, the existence of creation is rejected, but not that which really exists. The reality is that what appears to be this world is actually beginningless and was never created. Anyone who rejects the conclusions of wise ancient texts and his own feelings about the appearance and disappearance of substances is a fool and should be kept away from such a person. Transcendental reality is eternal, the world is not unreal (only the limiting principle, mind, is unreal). Therefore everything is indivisible, limitless, nameless and formless infinite consciousness. It is the reflection of Brahman in itself, which is the infinite forms manifesting as universes with their own cycles of creation and destruction. This is Brahman itself, which knows itself for a moment as the universe and therefore appears as such. There is no reason.

Sikidwaya said:

My misunderstanding is over. Thanks to you, I have become wise. I am free from all doubts. I know what is worthy of knowledge. The ocean of illusion is left behind. I am calm, like pure knowledge, without the concept of “I”.

Kumba said:

If this world does not exist, is there “I” and “you”? Therefore, remaining calm within, engage in spontaneous actions as the moment demands. All this is Brahman, which is the world, “I” and “world” are words without meaning. When the meaninglessness of such expressions is understood, what was previously seen by the world is understood as Brahman.

The creator Brahma is just an idea or concept. Same as me". Freedom and unfreedom depend on the correct or incorrect understanding of ideas! The concept of “this is me” leads to bondage, dependence and self-destruction. Understanding “this is not me” leads to freedom and purification. Freedom and slavery are also just concepts. That which perceives these concepts is the infinite consciousness, which is the only real one. The concept (feeling) “this is me” is the source of all suffering and anxiety. The absence of such feelings is perfection. Understand that “I am not my ego sense” and be aware.

When such awareness arises, all concepts disappear. What remains is perfection. In pure awareness, perfection or God there is no cause or effect in the form of creatures or objects. In the absence of objects, there is no perception and no subsequent sense of ego. When there is no sense of self-importance, is there birth and death and all this samsara? When there is no samsara (apparent world), only pure existence remains. In it, the universe exists like a statue in a rough piece of marble. He who sees the universe in this way, without the intrusion of reason and therefore without the concept of the universe, only he sees the truth. This vision is called nirvana.

If the word "wave" loses its meaning, only the ocean remains, and similarly only Brahman exists when the word "creation" loses its meaning. This creation is Brahman, only Brahman perceives this creation. When the meaning of the word "creation" is lost, the true meaning of "creation" is seen as the infinite Brahman. When the meaning of the word "Brahman" is examined, EVERYTHING is understood. When you examine the word creation in this way, Brahman is understood. This is consciousness, which is the basis and substratum of all such concepts, their perception is designated by the word “Brahman”. When this truth is clearly understood and when the duality of knowledge and the known (object of knowledge) is abandoned, what remains is the supreme peace, indescribable and unimaginable.

Sikidwaya said:

If the supreme being is real and the world is real, then I suppose that the supreme being is the cause and the world is the effect!

Kumba replied:

It is only if there is a cause that the effect can be implied. But if there is no cause, can an effect arise from it? There is no cause-and-effect relationship between Brahman and the universe - everything that is here is Brahman. If there is not even a seed, how can anything be born? Brahman is nameless and formless, and there is certainly no causality in it. Therefore Brahman is the non-actor in which causality does not exist. Therefore there is no effect called peace.

You are only Brahman and only Brahman exists. When this Brahman is perceived without wisdom, it is experienced as this universe. This universe is then like the body of Brahman. When this infinite consciousness considers itself to be something other than what it really is, it is called self-destruction or perceptual experience. This self-destruction is intelligence. Its essence is the very destruction of self-awareness. Even if this self-destruction lasts only a moment, it is known as intelligence, which lasts the entire cycle of creation and destruction of the world.

Such conceptual existence ceases only with the dawn of correct understanding and the cessation of all concepts. Because conceptual existence is unreal, it ceases of its own accord when truth is understood. When the world exists only as a word, and not as a real independent substance, can it be accepted as a real existence? This independent existence is like water in a mirage. Could this water be real? The state of non-understanding in which unreality appears real is called mind. Failure to understand the truth is stupidity or intelligence, correct understanding is self-realization or self-realization. Just as the understanding that “this is not water” leads to the understanding of a mirage as a mirage, the understanding that “this is not pure consciousness, but a mobile consciousness called mind” leads to its destruction.

When the non-existence of the mind is understood, it is seen that the sense of ego, etc., does not exist. Only one thing exists - infinite consciousness. All concepts cease. The falsity of what has appeared as reason ceases when concepts cease. I am not, there is no other, neither you nor they exist, there is no mind or feelings. There is one thing - pure consciousness. In all three worlds, nothing was ever born or died. There is only infinite consciousness. There is no unity, no diversity, no distorted perception, no misunderstanding. Nothing disappears and nothing appears. Everything, even the energy that manifests itself as desire or unwillingness, is your own Self.

Kumba (Kudala) said:

I hope that you have been spiritually awakened inwardly and that you now know what is worth knowing and have seen what is worth seeing.

Sikidwaya replied:

Truly, thanks to you, I saw the highest state. How is it that I still didn’t understand this?

Kumba said:

Only when the mind is completely calm, when you have completely abandoned all desires for pleasure and when the feelings are deprived of the ability to embellish and cover up reality, only then the words of the teacher are correctly understood. Your previous efforts were not in vain, because they brought results today and the impurity has disappeared. When a person is freed from psychological conditioning and the dirt is washed away or purified, the words of the teacher penetrate directly into the heart of the student, like an arrow entering a lotus stem. You have reached this state of purity and therefore have become enlightened by my words and your misunderstanding has disappeared.

In our company, your karmas (actions and residual consequences) have been destroyed. Until this afternoon, you were full of the wrong concepts of “I” and “mine” - out of stupidity. Now, in the light of my words, the mind has left your heart, you have been completely awakened, because misunderstanding lasts only as long as the mind operates in your heart. You are now enlightened and liberated. Be constantly in infinite consciousness, free from suffering, from desires and from all attachments.

Sikidwaya said:

Do enlightened people still have reason or not? How does he live and act in this world without reason?

Kumba replied:

Truly, the enlightened have no reason left. What is the mind? The dense psychological limitations that lead to rebirth are known as the mind - and this is absent from the enlightened. Enlightened sages live with the help of a mind free from limitations and unable to lead to rebirth. This is not reason at all, but pure light. Enlightened people live and act in this state, not in the mind. Misunderstanding and inert mind is intelligence, and enlightened intelligence is called satva. Fools live in their minds, but enlightened people live in satwa.

Kumba continued:

You have achieved the state of satva or enlightened mind because of your renunciation of everything. The conditioned mind has been completely abandoned, I am sure of it. Your mind has become like pure endless space. You have reached a state of complete balance, which is a state of perfection. This is a complete renunciation of everything without any remainder.

What happiness can be achieved by mortifying the flesh? The highest and infinite happiness is achieved only in complete balance. What kind of happiness can you get in heaven? One who has not achieved self-realization tries to grab a little pleasure by performing some rituals. He who has no gold appreciates copper!

O wise one, you could very easily become wise with the help of Kudala. Why did you choose these useless and meaningless cruel rituals? They have a beginning and an end, and in the middle there is apparent happiness. However, your rituals were in some ways useful for this spiritual awakening. Now always stand firm in the truth.

In this infinite consciousness all these realities and even unreal concepts arise, and into the same infinite consciousness they disappear. Even the ideas “this needs to be done” and “this shouldn’t be done” are droplets of this consciousness. Leave them too and be unconditioned. All these ritual-type methods are indirect. Why not take the direct path of self-realization?

What has been described here as satva must be abandoned by satva itself - i.e. complete freedom from it or non-attachment to it. All suffering in these three worlds, O king, arises only from mental desires. If you are in a state of equilibrium, in which the movement and stillness of thoughts do not differ from each other, you will find yourself in the eternal.

There is only one infinite consciousness. That Brahman which is pure consciousness is itself known as satva. A fool sees it as the world. Movement, like stillness, in this infinite consciousness are only concepts in the head of the observer: the totality of infinite consciousness is the sum of all this, but devoid of such concepts. His reality is beyond words!

Vashishta continued:

Having said this, Kumba disappeared from sight just as the king was about to present him with flowers as a sign of respect. Pondering over Kumba's words, Sikidwaya plunged into deep meditation, completely free from desires and aspirations.

Vashishta continued:

While Sikidwaya sat in deep meditation, completely freed from the slightest mental modification or movement in consciousness, Kudala left her masquerade, returned to the palace and, in her own female form, continued to direct the affairs of the kingdom. She returned to the place where Sikidwaya was sitting after three days and was extremely pleased to find him still sitting in meditation. She thought: “I have to make him return to the awareness of the world, should he leave the body now? Let him rule the state again for a while and then we both leave our bodies at the same time. Surely what I told him will not be lost. I must awaken him by practicing yoga."

She roared like a lion, and then again and again. He didn't open his eyes. She pushed his body, but he remained immersed in the higher self. She thought: “Alas, he is completely immersed in himself. How can I bring him back to awareness of the body? On the other hand, why should I do all this? Let him reach a state without a body, and then I too must leave my body now!”

As she prepared to leave her body, she thought again: “Before I leave this body yet, let me see if there is a seed of hidden tendencies somewhere in his body? If there is, he can be awakened and then we will both live as free beings. If not, and if he has achieved final liberation, I will also leave this body.” She examined the body and found that the source of individuality was still present in it.

Rama asked:

O wise one, when the body of a sage lies like a log, how can one know whether a spark of purified intelligence remains in his body?

Vashishta said:

In his heart, invisible and subtle, there remains a trace of satva, which is the reason why body awareness comes alive. It is similar to how both the flower and the fruit are already potentially present in the seed. The sage, whose mind is completely free from the movement of thought, has a consciousness completely solid and stable as a mountain - his body is in a state of excellent balance and shows no signs of pain or pleasure, it neither lives nor dies, but remains in the best harmony with nature. The body, like the mind, undergoes changes only as long as the concepts of duality and oneness exist. The movement of thought manifests itself as this world. Because of this, the mind feels pleasure, anger and misunderstanding, which remain invulnerable. But when the mind is completely calm, such difficulties do not arise in it. Such a person is like pure space.

Vashishta continued:

When satva is in a state of complete balance, no physical or psychological problems are felt. It is impossible to leave satva, it reaches its end with the passage of time. If there is no intelligence or even satva in the body, then the body dissolves into its constituent elements, just as snow melts in the sun. Sikidwai's body was free of mind (thought movement), but a little satwa remained in it. Therefore it did not turn into elements. Noticing this, Kudala decided: “I will enter the pure omnipresent intellect and try to awaken body awareness in it. If I don’t do this, he, of course, will wake up on his own after a while, but why should I be alone all this time?”

Kudala left her body and entered the pure mind (satva) of Sikidvaya. She stirred this pure mind and quickly re-entered her body, which she instantly transformed into the body of the young ascetic Kumba. Kumba began to quietly hum hymns from the Sama Veda. Listening to them, the king became aware of the body. He saw Kumba in front of him again and was happy. He said to Kumba: “Oh happiness, we have arisen again in your mind, O God! And you came here again just to shower me with a fountain of blessing!”

Kumba said:

From the time I left you, my heart has been here with you. There is no desire to go to heaven, I want to be next to you. I have no relatives, no friends, no student except you in this world.

Sikidwaya replied:

I am extremely blessed that you, although enlightened and without attachments, want to be with me. I pray you, be with me in this forest!

Kumba asked:

Tell me – have you been in a higher state for a while? Have you abandoned the concepts of “this is different” or “this is unfortunate” and others like that? Has the desire for pleasure ceased?

Sikidwaya replied:

Thanks to you, I have reached the other shore of this samsara, the apparent world. I achieved what I needed to achieve. There is nothing but the Self - neither already known, nor unknown, nor achievement, nor that which should be abandoned, neither one nor the other, not even pure reason. Like limitless space, I remain in an unconditional state.

Vashishta continued:

After spending an hour in this place, the king and Kumba went into the forest, where they wandered for eight days. Kumba suggested going to another forest, and the king agreed. They observed normal rules of life and performed suitable religious rituals for the pleasure of the gods and ancestors. Wrong concepts like “this is our home” or “this is not it” did not arise in their hearts. Sometimes they wore luxurious clothes, sometimes they wore rags. Sometimes they were scented with sandalwood oil, sometimes with ash. After a few days, the king shone with the same inner light as Kumba.

Seeing this radiance, Kumba (Kudala) began to think: “This is my husband, noble and strong. The forest is beautiful. We are in a state that knows no fatigue. Why then does the desire for pleasure not arise in the heart? Liberated sages accept with pleasure everything that comes to them of its own accord. If the wise man is caught in the network of conformism and adheres to restrictions, this again leads to stupidity. She whose feelings are not aroused in the presence of her own husband in a flower garden is no better than a lifeless log! What does a knower of truth or a self-realized sage gain by leaving behind what has been achieved without effort? I must do this so that my husband can enjoy physical love with me.” Having decided so, Kumba said to Sikidvaya: “Today is a blessed day, and I must go to heaven to see my father. Say goodbye to me until evening."

The two friends exchanged flowers. Kumba left. Soon Kudala left her suit, returned to the palace and governed the country a little. She returned to Sikidvaya again in the form of Kumba. Noticing the change in her expression, the king asked, “O son of the gods, why do you look unhappy? Saints do not allow any external influences to affect their balance.”

Kumba said:

Those who, while remaining in balance, do not allow their organs to act naturally while the body is alive are stubborn and narrow-minded people. As long as the seed is there, there is oil, and as long as the body is alive, there are different moods. The one who rebels against the various states into which the body naturally comes swings the sword, cutting the air. Yoga balance is for the mind, and not for the organs of action and their states. As long as there is a body, the organs of action must be allowed to perform their respective functions, and the intellect and senses must remain in a state of calm. This is the law of nature, to which even the gods obey.

Kumba continued:

Now, O king, listen to what misfortune has befallen me .

When you tell a friend about misfortune, it diminishes, like a heavy dark cloud becomes light after rain. The mind also becomes clear and peaceful when a friend listens to your fate.

After leaving you, I went to heaven to fulfill my duties. As evening approached, I left heaven to return to you. Along the way through space, I met the sage Durvasa, flying hastily to be in time for the evening prayers. It was dressed in dark clouds and decorated with lightning. He looked like a woman hurrying to meet her lover. I greeted him and jokingly told him about it. Angry at my insolence, he cursed me: “For this insolence, you will become a woman every night.” I'm upset at the thought of having to become a woman every night. It is truly a tragedy that God's children should suffer the consequences of insulting the wise. But why should I be sad, because this does not affect the Self itself.

Sikidwaya said:

There is no use in grieving, son of the gods. Let it be what will be, and your own self is not affected by the fate of the body. The joys and sufferings that occur to us concern only the body, and not the one who lives in it. Even if you are prone to sadness, what can we say about those who do not understand! Perhaps when you talk about it, you just use the right words and expressions!

Vashishta continued:

This is how they consoled each other, because they were inseparable friends. The sun set and the darkness of night spread across the earth. They performed the evening rituals. Soon Kumba's body began to change little by little. Fighting tears, in a broken voice, he said to Sikidwaya: “Woe is me, I feel my body dissolving and sinking into the ground. My breasts are growing. The bones grow, taking on a shape appropriate for a woman. Look, the dress and jewelry grow right out of this body. What should I do, where should I hide, because I have actually become a woman!”

Sikidwaya replied: “O wise one, you know what is worth knowing. Don't worry about the inevitable. Fate affects only the body, and not what is embodied in it.” Kumba also agreed: “You’re right. I'm not sad anymore. Can anyone resist the world order or nature?”

Talking like this, they went to bed. So Kudala lived with her husband, like a young ascetic by day and like a woman by night.

Vashishta continued:

After a few days, Kumba (Kudala) said to Sikidvaya: “O king, listen to my confession. For some time now I have been becoming a woman at night. I wish to play the role of a woman at night. I feel that I should live like the wife of a wise husband. In all three worlds, I have no one closer than you. Therefore, I want to marry you and enjoy marital pleasures with you. It's natural, pleasant and possible. Is it bad? We have given up desires and do not reject anything and look at everything the same. Therefore, let’s do what comes naturally, without desire or denial.”

Sikidwaya replied: “O my friend, I see nothing good and nothing bad in this. Therefore, O wise one, do as you wish. My mind is in complete balance and in everything I see only infinite consciousness. Therefore, do as you wish."

Kumba replied: “If you feel so, O king, then today is the most suitable day. The heavenly bodies will be witnesses at our wedding.”

They collected everything needed for the ritual. They washed each other with holy water and prayed to their ancestors and gods.

By this time night had fallen. Kumba turned into a beautiful woman. “He” said to the king: “Dear friend, now I am a woman. My name is Madanika. I salute you and I am your wife." Sikidwaya decorated Madanika with garlands, flowers and precious stones. Enjoying her beauty, the king said: “O Madanika, you are as bright as goddess Lakshmi. May we live together like sun and shadow, Lakshmi and Narayana, Shiva and Parvati. May our union be blessed."

They kindled the holy fire and performed the rituals in strict accordance with the instructions of the holy texts. The altar was decorated with flowers and multi-colored precious and semi-precious stones. Its four corners were decorated with coconuts and there were also pots of holy Ganges water. In the center was a holy fire. They walked around this fire and brought the necessary offerings to it with the corresponding holy hymns. While doing this, the king held Madanika's hand from time to time, showing his love for her and his joy at the event. They walked around the holy fire three times, then retired to the marriage monastery (a previously prepared cave). The moon shone with a cool light, the wedding bed was covered with fragrant flowers. They climbed onto the bed and hmm... completed the wedding.

Vashishta continued:

When the sun rose, Madanika became Kumba. That's how they lived - friends by day and spouses by night. One day, when Sikidwaya was sleeping, Kumba (Kudala) went to the palace, minded her business there for a while and returned to bed.

They lived for a month in the caves of the Mahendra Mountains. Then they wandered through different forests and mountains. For some time they lived in a divine garden in the Parizata forest on the southern slopes of Mount Mainaka.

After a few months of this life, Kudala thought: “I must test the king’s manhood by offering him the joys and pleasures of heaven. If it doesn’t excite him, then he will never seek pleasure again.”

Having decided so, Kudala created an illusion with her magic in which Sikidwaya saw the chief of the gods, Indra, accompanied by heaven. Remaining calm at their sudden appearance, the king greeted them properly. Then he asked Indra, “Please tell me, what have I done to deserve your visit to me?”

Indra replied: “O wise one, we have come here attracted by your presence. We heard in heaven the praise of your glory. Let's quickly go to heaven - having heard about your glory, all the inhabitants of heaven are burning with impatience to see you. I pray you, accept these heavenly amulets, which will give you the ability to travel in space, as the saints do. Undoubtedly, O wise one, enlightened beings do not refuse the happiness that comes without effort. May your visit cleanse the heavens." Sikidwaya said: “I know how good it is in heaven, O Indra! But for me heaven is everywhere and also nowhere. I'm happy where I am because I don't desire anything. I cannot go to the paradise that you describe and which is limited to a certain place! Therefore, I cannot carry out your command." “But,” said Indra, “it seems to me that it is normal for enlightened sages to want to experience the pleasures they deserve.” Sikidwaya was silent. Indra was about to leave. Sikidwaya said, “I will not go with you now because now is not the time.”

Having blessed the king and Kumba, Indra and his entourage disappeared.

Vashishta continued:

Having removed her illusion, Kudala said to herself: “Excellent, the king cannot be attracted by promises of pleasure. Even when Indra came and invited him to heaven, the king remained calm and pure as space. Now I will give him another test and see if he can be swayed by the twin forces of attraction and repulsion.”

That same night, Kudala created with her magic a beautiful garden and a wonderful bed in it. She also created a beautiful young man, much more handsome and attractive than Sikidwai. It seemed that she herself was sitting on the bed in the arms of her lover.

Sikidwaya finished his evening meditations and began looking for his wife Madanika. After some time, he discovered the place where the sweet couple was hiding. He saw them completely engrossed in lovemaking. Her hair fell out and she held his face in her hands. Their lips met in a passionate kiss. They clearly expressed great love and attraction for each other. With every movement they expressed their love. The reflection of the pleasure of their hearts shone on their faces. They didn't see anything around.

Sikidwaya saw all this but remained calm. He did not want to disturb them and turned to leave. But he was noticed. He told them, “Please do not interrupt your pleasure.”

After some time, Madanika came out of the garden and met Sikidwaya. She was terribly ashamed. But the king said: “Darling, why did you leave so quickly? All beings live to enjoy happiness. It is difficult to find such a harmonious couple in this world. It didn't bother me at all because I know very well what people want in this world. Kumba and I are wonderful friends, and Madanika is the result of Durvasa’s curse!”

Madanika pleaded, “Such is the nature of women! They are fickle. They are eight times more sensual than men. They are weak and cannot resist lust in the presence of the one they desire. Please forgive me and don't be angry." Sikidwaya replied, “I’m not angry with you at all, dear. But it will be right if I now treat you as a good friend, and not as a wife.” Kudala liked the king’s words, which finally proved that he was above lust and anger. She immediately discarded her Madanika form and appeared in her original form as Kudala.

Sikidwaya said:

Who are you, beautiful lady, and how did you end up here? How long are you here? You look almost like my wife!

Kudala replied:

Truly, I am Kudala. I myself took the form of Kumba and others in order to awaken your spirit. I also myself took the form of this small illusory world with all this garden, etc., which you just saw. Since the day you thoughtlessly left your kingdom and came here to perform rituals, I have tried to awaken your spirit. It was I, taking the form of Kumba, who taught you. The forms that you perceived, Kumba and others, are unreal. And now you are fully awakened and know everything there is to know.

Vashishta continued:

Sikidwaya went into deep meditation and saw everything that had happened since he left the palace. He was delighted and his love for his wife increased many times over. Returning to this consciousness, he hugged Kudala with such love that it is difficult to describe. With hearts overflowing with love, they remained for some time in a special state.

Sikidwaya then said to Kudala:

Oh, the love of a dear wife is sweeter than nectar! What inconvenience and pain you experienced for my sake! The method by which you pulled me out of this terrible ocean of misunderstanding cannot be compared with anything. I have heard legends about exceptional women and exemplary wives, but all this is nothing compared to you. You are superior to them in everything. You fought for my enlightenment. How can I thank you? A loving wife can achieve more than holy texts, teachers and mantras because of her love for her husband. A wife is everything to a husband - friend, brother, well-wisher, servant, teacher, companion, wealth, happiness, holy scripture, slave. Such a wife needs to constantly pray.

Dear Kudala, you are the best of all women in this world. Come here and hug me again.

Vashishta said:

Having said this, Sikidwaya lovingly embraced Kudala again.

Kudala said:

When I saw you engrossed in performing useless rituals, my heart ached. I eased this pain by coming here and trying to awaken you. This was truly for my own pleasure and enjoyment. I don't deserve credit for this!

Sikidwaya replied:

May then all wives always fulfill their selfish desires and awaken the spirit of their husbands, as you did!

Kudala said:

I don’t see in you those small desires, thoughts and feelings that tormented you several years ago. I pray you, tell me what you are now, what condition you are in and what you see.

Sikidwaya replied:

Darling, I am in the state to which you awakened me. I have no attachments. I am like endless indivisible space. I am calm. I have reached a state that is difficult for even the gods Shiva and Vishnu to reach. I am free from doubts and misunderstandings, and experience neither suffering nor delight. I cannot say “this is” or “that is.” I am free from limitations and enjoy a state of inner bliss. I am what I am – it’s hard to put into words! You are my teacher, dear one, and I salute and worship you. Thanks to you, my love, I crossed the ocean of samsara. I will no longer fall into misunderstanding.

Kudala asked:

In this case, what do you want to do now?

Sikidwaya replied:

I don't know any restrictions or permissions. Whatever you do, I think it's true. Do what you need to do and I will follow you.

Kudala said:

God, we're both enlightened now. For us, both desire and its opposite are one and the same. We don't need breathing exercises or other practices. We are what we were at the beginning, in the middle and at the end, and we discard everything else. We were the king and queen in the beginning, middle and end. What must be left behind is delusion! Therefore, let's return to the kingdom and give it a wise ruler.

Sikidwaya asked:

Why not then accept the invitation to Indra's heaven?

Kudala replied:

O king, I desire neither the pleasures nor the wealth of the kingdom. I remain in the state that was given to me naturally. When the thought “this is pleasure” is opposed by the thought “this is not pleasure,” they both disappear. I remain in this calmness, which is beyond both.

The two enlightened ones spent the night in marital pleasures.

Vashishta continued:

At sunrise they rose and performed their morning duties. Kudala materialized with her thought a golden vessel with the holy waters of the seven oceans. With these waters she washed the king and elevated him to emperor.

In turn, the king again enthroned his wife Kudala. He suggested that she create an army with the power of thought, and she created it.

Following the royal couple on a beautiful elephant, the entire army marched towards the kingdom. Along the way, Sikidwaya showed Kudala different places where he had been an ascetic. They soon reached the outskirts of their capital, where they were greeted by the inhabitants.

Anyone who believes in the reality of his own imaginary world considers his presence in it temporary. But WHAT we are always exists.

The world, which is vibrations of thoughts of infinite consciousness, due to the imperfection of perception, seems to a person to be material, structured in a certain way and existing according to certain laws. But everything is energy, vibration, rotation: the movement of planets, galaxies, the movement of thoughts, the movement of molecules, atoms and particles that make up the material world that seems to us. Everything is a movement of thoughts of infinite consciousness, which is described differently in different religions, but the divine essence of which does not change.

Vibrations can be both manifested and unmanifested in human perception, and also flow from one form to another. Manifested vibrations include sound, light, smells, and perceived material objects. Unmanifested ones include thoughts, radio waves, various radiations and other types of energy, for the determination of which a person does not have the appropriate instruments. But one of the greatest mysteries for man is how the visible material world manifests itself from invisible energy, how material objects arise that have various forms and properties, and seemingly have nothing in common with the vibrations of infinite consciousness.

This entire world, seemingly material and consisting of many objects, arises from the reflection of the energy of the waves of infinite consciousness in the consciousness of the perceiver. To see that energy exists as a material world, there must be someone who sees it all - the perceiver. But who is the perceiver and what is he like?

The perceiver is a separate consciousness - a program that is configured in such a way that it has the ability to perceive the concepts of other separate consciousnesses (their energy) as separate objects endowed with different properties and forms. The perceived world and objects of perception are illusory and are the result of the imagination of the perceiver of energy. But the feelings and sensations that arise in the perceiver create a sense of reality of those objects and events that arise in his imagination. At the same time, the feelings and sensations themselves are virtual and are also imagination, part of the perception program, they arise in the same consciousness of the perceiver (in the mind), like biocurrents in certain places of the cerebral cortex.

The program of perception in the perceiver gives its specific meaning to all vibrations arising as a result of the play of infinite consciousness. The world, which manifests itself in the perceiver, and the perceiver himself are separate programs in the game of infinite consciousness, allowing one to perceive the game of vibrations of energy as the material world. It is likely that due to your established beliefs and beliefs in the apparent reality of the feelings and sensations that you experience during perception, it will be difficult for you to immediately believe that the world around you that seems to you and you yourself is only a reflection in your mind of the energy manifesting itself in the virtual perceiver as virtual world. But everything that you perceive as yourself and the world around you is just a game of imagination, an illusion that exists as a program within a program, consciousness within consciousness, like a matryoshka doll within a doll.

Modern science has established that the human body with all its properties arises from a program, exists according to the program and is stored in the program for further reproduction, which is recorded in DNA code- the most powerful biomolecular computer, many times superior to the capabilities of the human brain. DNA not only controls all processes in a person, but also continues to exist in other bodies, even when the original body disappears. It is not DNA that exists in man, but man in DNA. This alone should have made a person think about how confused his mind is, which considers the external to be internal and the internal to be external. After all, a person considers as his internal thoughts, feelings, emotions and much more that is external, a manifestation of vibrations, thoughts of infinite consciousness, and vice versa, he considers the surrounding world - objects that are only a virtual reflection in his separate consciousness - to be external. This confusion gives rise to imperfect human perception. He sees the world as if turned inside out, considering the infinitely large as small, and the small as infinitely large. Thus, in his perception, atoms may seem like entire galaxies, and in his imagination, the infinite consciousness appears microscopic to him, enclosed in the DNA code in his cell. And it is precisely this confusion that makes it impossible for a person to understand who he really is, and forces him to perceive the ongoing show as his life, dooming him to pain and suffering.

Separated consciousness is a highly complex program that exists in a state of dynamic equilibrium, in which there are programs of self-preservation, programs for providing oneself with energy, and programs of the senses, organs of perception, allowing one to see, hear and feel the virtual world created in the imagination of infinite consciousness. Being simultaneously vibrations of thoughts of infinite consciousness, the separated consciousness of the perceiver in its unique form strives to preserve its individuality.

The ancients gave the name “to such a separate consciousness that desires to experience perceptual experiences.” soul of man" But no matter what form consciousness takes, no matter who it considers itself to be in its separateness, it always remains an infinite consciousness like gold, which, no matter what form it takes, will always remain gold. And no matter who a person considers himself to be, he has always been, is and will be a manifestation of infinite consciousness. And this is his divine origin.

By creating the conditions for separation to arise, infinite consciousness can manifest itself in a variety of forms, just as fog, clouds, raindrops, snow, a lake, and bubbles on it appear from water. But clouds, rain, snow, lake, bubbles are only water, just like any product made of gold will still be gold. Gold is like pure consciousness. The form that the product takes is only temporary. Form is an illusion. Time will destroy any form, but gold itself will always remain unchanged. Therefore, people appear and disappear, and even entire civilizations appear and disappear, but What we are always exists.
