’The nature of truth is to be free from contradictions.We approach nearer and nearer truth as we fi ndless and less contradictions. The only thing which isso free is non-duality’...’This may be achieved at fi rst, as theUpanishads say, in lightning fl ashes, in fl eeting momentaryglimpses, but later this must be established into permanency.You should stabilize them through self-recollectedness to bedone throughout the day, and through the constant reminderthat the world is not separate from yourself. It is not enough tograsp the intellectual truth of non-duality’...’As the man of realisationknows the world to be an idea, a mental construct, thesense of unifi cation and love to all mankind is simultaneouslyits materialization, for he knows no difference between ideaand matter. Hence too he wishes all beings to be happy, loveseven his enemy, wishes him no harm, for he knows the truth ofuniversal self-identifi cation. Thus to the extent a man realisesthe truth, he can do good and no more’...’Any kind of differencemeans contradiction. Nothing whatsoever other than theAtman exists. If you think there is another entity, whether manor God, there is no truth. This is the teaching since time immemorialof those who have inquired into truth.’- V. SUBRAHMANYA IYER
