Talks on MK3.29-33: amani-bhava

As in the state of dreaming, a semblance of duality is projected by the maya of mind, so too in the waking state.

As a singular mind appears to be a world of duality in dreams, the nondual self appears to be dual in waking. No doubt.

A world of things, both moving and non-moving, is seen in the mind only. Duality is nowhere to be seen when the mind isn’t moving.

A mind, upon realizing the knowledge that Atman alone is real, ceases to be the mind. For the want of a mind, all perception is free from belief.

Ajam and free from imagination is Jnana. The Knowable is one with Brahman. That intent of Knowledge is unborn and immutable. By the birthless, the birthless is known.
