BHAGAVATHPADA SHAKARACHARYA'S DASHA SLOKI SAYS
BHAGAVATHPADA SHAKARACHARYA
SLOKA 7
There is neither teacher nor scripture,nor pupil nor teaching,
nor you(the hearer) nor I( the speaker),nor this empirical
universe; for,the teaching of one's true nature(the
consciousness of Reality) does not admit of differentiation.
I am that One, Auspecious and Pure,that alone remains.
SLOKA 9
All this universe, being other than the self,is unreal,
for the self alone is all-inclusive,constitutes the ultimate goal,
and is self established and self dependent.

Bhagavan: There is neither Past nor Future. There is only the
Present. Yesterday was the present to you when you
experienced it, and tomorrow will be also the present when you
experience it. Therefore experience takes place only in the
present, and beyond experience nothing exists.
Lady: Are then Past and Future mere imagination?
Bhagavan: Yes, even the Present is mere imagination, for the
sense of time is purely mental. Space is similarly mental;
therefore birth and rebirth, which take place in time and space
cannot be other than imagination.

IN JEWEL GARLAND OF ENQUIRY(Vichara Mani Mala) - -
Whatever is seen is the play of the intellect, which is
the effect of nescience. Brahman illumines the
intellect. This intellect projects its false imagination in
states of waking, dreaming and merges in
the nescience in the state of deep sleep.
anything existing now. Nor will there be anything in
the future.Since the objects that are known do not
(really) exist, the terms 'witness' and 'seer' are not
applicable.
He who has known this and cast away the sense of
duty is a Sage(jnani)

BIRTH & DEATH ARE TWO ILLUSORY SCENES
IN THE DRAMA OF THIS WORLD :
REALLY NO ONE IS BORN,NO ONE DIES,
NO ONE COMES, NO ONE GOES,
IT IS Maya's JUGGLERY,
IT IS PLAY OF THE MIND :
BRAHMAN ALONE EXISTS.
You saw a dream ,woke up in the morning & then
you think it was so realistic when it lasted but now
it is of no importance because it is only a dream(mental projection without panchendriyas - Five senses).When
you get JNANA(knowledge) same thing applies to waking state (mental projection associated with panchendriyas - ie,
Five senses,is still more realistic),that it is not Real.

When manonasha(destruction of Mind)
takes place(state of no ego)
vanishes.When min. ahankara(ego) is maintained,
required for the imagination of living by a JNANI
(Sage with knowledge) world is seen just like day
time moon.
This is MOKSHA(Liberation) while living, not at the
time of death as people wrongly believe..He is called
JEEVANMUKTHA, sees Brahman in all & everything.
Concept that all your property goes to your
children after your death is false.When there
is no REAL world,where is Father,Mother,
Brothers,Sisters,Wife & Children? Mental
projection takes place as per your Prarabda
karma ie, matured portion of papa(sins) & Punya(good deeds) done in past births accompany in this birth to be exhausted in this birth before imagination of Death.
in mental plane & is not REAL.Swami Vivekananda
has also told the same thing in his 'JNANA YOGA'
has also told the same thing in his 'JNANA YOGA'
When a person dies people say Athma left the
body.Actually Sukshma & Karana Shariras
(Pranamaya,monomaya,
Ananadamaya Koshas) ie, prana, mind,
intellct,cause of Avidya, move along with Athma, which means same mind & intellct
accompanies your Soul, birth after birth,

accompanies your Soul, birth after birth,
& another mental projection starts for another
birth,just like we change channels in TV.
of Mind) ie, Jeevanmuktha state his Athma merges with
Athma (only one ATHMA) & hence no more births or
mental projection takes place ie,MOKSHA(Liberation).
For those worldly minded people above facts may
be difficult to digest but ADVAITHA Philosophy &
experience indicates they are correct.
