Astravare: The world which we are experiencing is an appearance of consciousness to consciousness. If i am consciousness and you are consciousness, then the world which you experience out there,. is you. Astravare sinks in a slok. After this, he says, proca shammenijam rupum. My very is light. Nati rictoas metata, i am nothing more than light, light shining. That's what i am. When the universe shines, shines forth.
"I, the One, illumine this body and also reveal this universe. Therefore, mine is all this universe or indeed nothing is mine." Inspired by this verse from the Ashtavakra Gita, Swami Sarvapriyananda speaks on the nature of the Self.
