We look at the wonderful questions and observations that Markme has offered the forum. It supports the knowledge that appears in the pratyabhijñāhṛdayam¹ , 12th sūtra , found therein; it says:
tadaparijñāne svaśaktibhirvyāmohitatā saṁsāritvam | 12
This says,
to be the saṃsārin¹ (saṁsāritvam) or the one that goes from birth-to-both means to be bewildered or perplexed (vyāmohitatā¹) by one's own powers (śaktibhiḥ) on account of the complete ignorance (aparijñāne¹) of that (tad)
What is 'that' or tad ? It is the authorship of the 5 fold act that the Supreme is always engaged in. What are these 5 things ?
- sṛṣṭi - manifesting
- sthiti - maintaining
- saṁhāra - reabsorption
- vilaya or concealment of His essential Universal nature
- anugraha - divine grace which allows the Self to reveal itSelf to itSelf.
That is, being human, we are somewhat perplexed on our status. We have an experience that is significant; the experience gives us a small glimpse of our real nature and we are not sure what occurred.
This is not a bad thing , or, are we to find any fault. It is now up to the individual to move forward and unfold one's real status or let it remain dormant until a future date.
