TRUTH--ABSOLUTE

TRUTH ABSOLUTE
We have a body - a physical structure- and we are ever conscious of it.
So long as we have this body-consciousness, we would continue to differentiate chit and jadam, dehi and deham, kshetragna and kshetra, akshara and kshara, atma and anatma, actual and perceptual, avibhaktham and vibhaktham, consciousness(pure) and consciousness (dynamic), purusha and prakrithy, Ishwara and jagat,etc. This body- consciousness would disappear only with the death of the physical structure, and in some exceptional cases, it would disappear when one enters nirvikalpa samadhy. Even saints and sages who are intellectually convinced about the adwaithic finality of the one TRUTH Absolute (Awareness), are not able to outlive this phenomenon of body- consciousness. However,our understanding of the TRUTH ABSOLUTE (Awareness) contemplatively would enable us to remain as Pure Consciousness, as a Witness, to all its reflections. Pure Consciousness is the Witness to its own reflection which shines as diversified form of consciousness. To make it more clear -Pure Consciousness is the Witness and the Consciousness in the reflected aspect is the doer while TRUTH Absolute -Awareness- remains as such without the act of doership or witnessing.
Pure Consciousness is known differently as Chit, Dehi, Purusha, Ishwara etc. The first expression of the Absolute is Pure Consciousness . Vedantins declare this as 'beeja jagrat'. The reflection of consciousness is 'Jagrat" and with the sense of individuality and sense of doership the same becomes 'maha jagrat. "I" is the 'beeja jagrat': "I AM" is the 'jagrat' and "I am so and so; this is mine" is the 'maha jagrat'. In beeja jagrat, Consciousness remains as such. in the jagrat, the reflection of Consciousness is dynamic, and in the maha jagrat, the reflection is ego. It can be easily remembered with the analogy of Water, ocean, waves and individual wave (Water the Reality; Ocean the Pure Consciousness: waves the Consciousness reflected as dynamic; and individual wave is the ego sense of individuality and doership. Truth Absolute (Awareness) is the base; Pure Consciousness (the first expression) is the substratum, and the Universe(consciousness in dynamic form) is the REFLECTION. Ishwara ( another name of Consciousness) is the expression of the Truth Absolute. I see Him enveloping the Universe, I see Him in me and I see Him in 'perceiving'. It is His will that prevails to express as phenomena, to express as individual and to express as individual volition. With this intellectual conviction and by contemplative vision of the one and only Truth, let my little ego immerse in Him just as a wavelet immerses in the Ocean. May His Will prevail. May I ever feel that I am only a wavelet willed by the vast Ocean of Consciousness. This is the Ultimte Truth.
