Brahman: The Light of the Śāstras and Supreme Truth

Those whose senses are awakened and whose sins are washed away gain purified understanding through the light of the śāstras, Maha Ramayana. They perceive that the physical body, composed of flesh, bones, and the five elements, is only a creation of the imagination of the mind, with no true substance. Experiences like the torments of hell, the bliss of heaven, and thoughts of birth and death are merely fabrications of a laboring mind.

Surrounding nature and celestial beings reflect this world of form—from sporting birds and resting mountain bulls covered in flower dust to Siddhas clad in cloud-vests. Yet true peace is found when one turns inward. Like a lover solely reclined on the thought of his beloved, the mind comes to rest after its long wanderings.

Liberated from all concerns, released from life’s enjoyments, and disenthralled from the snare of desires and fancies, one rests in the supreme bliss of the soul. Understanding that the eternal law of the Supreme Being governs all past experiences and the revolving world, one moves forward with firm belief in the one adored Deity, acting in complete conformity with that truth.
