No World, No Appearances
Tuesday 14 November 2023
A question is asked about the contradiction between going out in the world carrying the light, and ajatavada, which is the realisation that there is no world. Rupert responds, that is why we don't normally speak of ajatavada because it is legitimate to speak of our experience in the world. Ramana Maharshi, in response to a question about helping others, would say there are no others. And yet, he still behaved in a very compassionate, caring way. This is an example of having the highest understanding and yet not using it as an excuse to not behave with compassion.
