by Kenneth Jaques | 31,733 words

The Mandukya Upanishad is a short, just twelve verses, description of the material manifestation and the eventual return to unmanifest form of the Universe....

Verse 32

32. When the mind does not imagine owing to the comprehension of the truth about Atman, it goes to the state of non mind; it is without cognition in the absence of the cognisable.

The mind of the Realised being is stilled from the workings of discursive thoughts, the thoughts that are centred on itself and that try to assume the responsibility for its own existence by doing the thinking or cognition of reality. The higher purified intellect now guides the understanding and the beings awareness is now of the reality of Non-Duality.
