Liberation is exiting with the knowingness
🌷 Katho Upanishad 🌷
Chapter 5
Winning immortality
🌻 Day 40 🌻
‘What’ – we discussed the Kena Upanishad. It comes in order. First is Isha, then Kena and then Katho – this comes third.
Bodh mantra, just the knowingness, not knowledge or the knower. From objects of knowing to knowledge to the knowingness to the knower – these are the four steps to the Self. You can never make the Divine an object of knowing. This is what people are trying to do in the whole world. “Can I see God? Have you seen God?” When people ask these questions, it is so stupid. The Self cannot be an object of knowing. It is the knowingness itself.
It is in death that the knowingness is not there; just like in sleep your knowingness
is absent. Liberation is exiting with the knowingness, like witnessing your sleep. You might have had one or two glimpses here and there, maybe in an advance course sometime somewhere, that you are sleeping and you know that you are sleeping.
