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 31
31. What is not at the beginning and at the end is so also in the present; existing things though similar to illusions, are noted as though real.
This verse is repeated from chapter 2 verse 6. Although an object has all the appearance of reality it will be known to be unreal due to its having a beginning and an end.
