liberation exists in you – and you will never be liberated
:Ramana Maharishi.
Interpretation:
–Enlightenment comes to those who understand the capacity of intellectual skill.
-Those who do not understand the capacity of intellectual skill do not receive enlightenment.
– When enlightenment is realized, ignorance vanishes, and the ability to reason intellectually vanishes in liberation, which is already present in all human beings.
Source:The Brihadaranyaka Upanishad (2:4:12)
12.As a lump of salt, when thrown into water, becomes dissolved into water, and could not be taken out again, but wherever we taste (the water) it is salt—thus verily, O Maitreyi, does this great Being, endless, unlimited, consisting of nothing but knowledge, rise from out these elements, and vanish again in them. When he has departed, there is no more knowledge (name), I say, O Maitreyi.” Thus spoke Yagnavalkya.
13. Then Maitreyi said: “Here thou hast bewildered me, Sir, when thou sayest that having departed, there is no more knowledge.”
14.But Yagnavalkya replied: “O Maitreyi, I say nothing that is bewildering. This is enough, O beloved, for wisdom.
“For when there is as it were duality, then one sees the other, one smells the other, one hears the other, one salutes the other, one perceives the other, one knows the other; but when the Self only is all this, how should he smell another, how should he see another, how should he hear another, how should he salute another, how should he perceive another, how should he know another? How should he know Him by whom he knows all this?
“How, O beloved, should he know (himself), the Knower?”
