TB- 30 Dream State..Conclusion..
सूक्ष्म शरीर अभिमानि आत्मा तैजस: इति उच्च्यते ||TB-30||
One thing I must warnt he readers here.. the numbering is NOT part oft he original text.. I am assigning those numbers for two reasons.. it becomes a convenient indes for us.. second.. I add them as I need to pause and amplify on certain TB statements & explanantions taught to me by SDs.having said that..
आत्मा Athma : that aspect of the person, the jiva:
अभिमानि aBimani : attached to..
सूक्ष्म sUkshma : subtle
शरीरSarira : body
इति उच्च्यते ithi uccyathE : is called
तैजस: thaijasa: : thaijasa EVER EFFLUGENT..!
I am going to dwell on this topic in detail for one simple reason.. THIS IS THE CORE CONCEPT WHEN UNDERSTOOD THAT MAKES ADVAITHAM A WALK-OVER..!
We have talked about the physical body as sThUla Sariram.. and subtle bodyas sUkshma SarIram..
usually our existence as Mani or you or any one living or dead is referenced only with respect to these two bodies only.. beyond that we do not see.. hence the possibility of a state wherein all questioning ends has ended when we exist in these two bodies alones.. these two are primarily responsible for the two thieves that haunt us.
The firsr one is "I" and the second one is "My or Mine".. As the discussion goes on TB we can easily come back and reflect ourselves on these two culprits.
The next question asked by all of us is "if world is mithyA, how come I do not see it? I see the movie Sarfarosh.. or the objects around me and the living and the dead around me.. ALL SEPARATE FROM ME ONLY.. ALL I SEE IS DUALITY either in variations in myslef or variations in things and beings other than myself.. so how can all these differences have come yet from one source.. and more importantly.. how come advaithin says they are all one and the same.
This is where upanishaths kindly point our that if in your dream state you can see a variety of things and YET it all arises from one gnAnam inside you, in the same way BagavAn can create all this varigated universe out of the one gnAnam of "brmhan"
