Mandukya Upanishad
With an Advaita Commentary from our Understanding
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 51
51. When the vijnana (consciousness) is verily vibrating, the appearances do not arise from anything else; as a result of non-vibration, they the appearances are not elsewhere other than there, nor do they enter the vijnana.
When consciousness is vibrating, that is displaying creation, that appearance of creation (or this appearance of creation) comes from nowhere else, goes nowhere else nor does the appearance of creation move back into consciousness when not being "displayed".
