00:01:21.355 --> 00:01:27.865
Today we are going to continue on with the Isha Upanishad and we are going to be looking at verses 4 to 6.

00:01:28.066 --> 00:01:28.906
Verse four.

00:01:29.296 --> 00:01:33.825
That Self, the unmoving one, is quicker than the mind.

00:01:34.042 --> 00:01:46.387
Never indeed can it be reached by the senses for it is always ahead! In spite of standing still, it is the one that gives the wind of motion to the others who are running.

00:01:46.614 --> 00:01:48.043
Let's break that up a little.

00:01:48.263 --> 00:01:50.634
So first of all, it says that Self.

00:01:50.634 --> 00:02:09.519
So right now we need to experience the presence of the Formless Awareness right now because once it is said that Self, we should automatically start associating ourselves with it, or at least bringing it in front of us.

00:02:09.590 --> 00:02:12.942
That Self, and remember, it's right here.

00:02:13.122 --> 00:02:16.854
It's not somewhere in the future and it's not somewhere in the past.

00:02:16.884 --> 00:02:18.348
It's not somewhere behind you.

00:02:18.707 --> 00:02:19.698
It's right here.

00:02:21.149 --> 00:02:27.034
And once we say That Self, remember it is referring to Nirguna Brahman.

00:02:27.858 --> 00:02:32.237
That non-dual self, that non-dual awareness.

00:02:33.518 --> 00:02:41.681
And by also saying that Self, it is invoking our state to arise from the material to the Formless.

00:02:41.858 --> 00:02:44.437
That's essentially what we are looking to do.

00:02:44.615 --> 00:02:51.306
When we feel the first two words that self, that's what it automatically brings for us.

00:02:51.646 --> 00:02:53.578
Then it says the unmoving one.

00:02:53.580 --> 00:02:55.175
So it doesn't move anywhere.

00:02:55.442 --> 00:02:57.632
It is absolute stillness.

00:02:59.611 --> 00:03:01.081
It is stable in itself.

00:03:01.081 --> 00:03:03.451
Nothing can waver it in any way.

00:03:03.602 --> 00:03:06.301
Nothing can rock it in any way.

00:03:06.542 --> 00:03:08.891
Nothing can disturb it in any way.

00:03:09.042 --> 00:03:10.822
It's unmoved.

00:03:11.068 --> 00:03:14.457
Neither can our faith move it nor our faithlessness.

00:03:14.638 --> 00:03:20.735
It doesn't really matter because that self is dependent on nobody and no thing else.

00:03:20.927 --> 00:03:23.987
Nothing can move it and nor does it move anything.

00:03:24.329 --> 00:03:26.687
It doesn't care about moving anything.

00:03:26.687 --> 00:03:29.177
It doesn't care about listening to our prayers.

00:03:29.478 --> 00:03:35.707
It doesn't care about listening to what we want and what we desire on a material level.

00:03:36.701 --> 00:03:41.294
I'm not saying that we cannot feel that there is a God that cares for us.

00:03:41.598 --> 00:03:42.294
You can.

00:03:42.294 --> 00:03:43.884
It's a good consolation.

00:03:44.680 --> 00:03:57.296
But it's not the ultimate truth and it's not the truth that we talk about here on the deeper level because now awareness is something that you are, it's something that you have to empower within yourself.

00:03:57.347 --> 00:04:05.326
You are basically praying to yourself to improve your own circumstance that you know is ultimately unreal.

00:04:06.467 --> 00:04:13.292
Makes no sense when you look from a Vedantic level, more so from a deeper spiritual level.

00:04:13.645 --> 00:04:15.414
Its presence is everywhere.

00:04:15.955 --> 00:04:17.574
Hence it doesn't need to move.

00:04:18.024 --> 00:04:24.495
For example, if I need to go to see, a friend, I will have to travel to their address.

00:04:24.824 --> 00:04:28.185
I'll have to go to the very street, to the very house that they live in.

00:04:29.144 --> 00:04:40.148
However, even if I have to go to the temple, I have to put in the address, and there I can have the darshan of either the Guru or the deity.

00:04:40.451 --> 00:04:43.362
But with the Self, it's unmoving.

00:04:43.362 --> 00:04:44.262
It's everywhere.

00:04:45.502 --> 00:04:48.492
Wherever you go, it is present.

00:04:48.701 --> 00:04:55.038
We don't have to have an address to find this non-dual awareness.

00:04:55.158 --> 00:04:57.197
It's right here, right now.

00:04:57.617 --> 00:04:58.757
Readily available.

00:04:59.127 --> 00:05:02.072
Then it says is quicker than the mind.

00:05:02.317 --> 00:05:19.507
Although we can acknowledge that the mind processes at a very high speed, it's incredibly fast and it's incredible like how much processes are going on, you know, what our senses are processing, what our thoughts are processing, what images are processing, what our memories are processing.

00:05:19.543 --> 00:05:22.002
All this can be happening simultaneously.

00:05:22.007 --> 00:05:32.192
That's how magnificent the mind is and only doing that, but the brain itself, just allowing the whole body to function as it needs to is phenomenal.

00:05:32.392 --> 00:05:40.750
Even to the point of at one time, the thought can be processing so many different data points from the universe around it.

00:05:40.819 --> 00:05:55.088
For example, whatever our senses are processing that, any of the information that's hitting the senses and then for the senses then brings it to the mind for it to process is incredible and therefore we have this vision that we have right now.

00:05:55.144 --> 00:06:08.932
Think about the amount of data points required just to have the ability to just watch this podcast or listen to this podcast and look the room around you or the the park that you are in or whatever, it's incredible.

00:06:10.153 --> 00:06:26.410
However, even before the very energy of a thought is stirred up, that Self is present, so it's quicker than the mind before the mind can even have a single intention, Brahman is there, the Self is already there.

00:06:28.617 --> 00:06:35.300
. Therefore no emotion or thought or the senses is faster than Brahman, is faster than Formless Awareness.

00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:36.589
Impossible.

00:06:37.220 --> 00:06:38.060
They cannot be.

00:06:38.339 --> 00:06:42.360
No memory can take our attention before Formless Awareness is there.

00:06:43.019 --> 00:06:47.209
What is a screen that shows us memories, thoughts, feelings, sensory data.

00:06:47.264 --> 00:06:49.519
That very Brahman Itself, that very Self.

00:06:49.521 --> 00:06:58.745
So before even the image of a memory appears, it's appearing on the screen of the Self, the screen of Formless Awareness.

00:06:58.968 --> 00:07:04.338
That's why it's faster than the mind, because the screen is present before the image is.

00:07:04.709 --> 00:07:09.656
And then it says, never indeed can it be reached by the senses.

00:07:09.656 --> 00:07:13.663
That self can never be reached by the senses that's truly understood.

00:07:13.742 --> 00:07:16.353
Formless Awareness cannot be reached by the senses.

00:07:16.384 --> 00:07:17.673
The eyes cannot see it.

00:07:17.673 --> 00:07:19.233
The ears cannot hear it.

00:07:19.273 --> 00:07:20.773
The tongue cannot taste it.

00:07:20.833 --> 00:07:22.273
The skin cannot touch it.

00:07:22.339 --> 00:07:24.139
The nostrils cannot smell it.

00:07:24.923 --> 00:07:25.642
This.

00:07:25.716 --> 00:07:33.740
Formless Awareness is prior to all of that, and none of the senses can relay that information of Formless Awareness.

00:07:34.127 --> 00:07:36.737
And then it says, for it is always ahead.

00:07:37.235 --> 00:07:39.516
That Formless Awareness is always ahead.

00:07:39.516 --> 00:07:41.572
It's right here in front of us.

00:07:41.636 --> 00:07:44.875
Before your eyes see the screen, this Formless Awareness is.

00:07:45.055 --> 00:07:48.903
Before your ears hear the sound of my voice, Formless Awareness is.

00:07:48.935 --> 00:07:53.156
The Self is always ahead, and the question is, can you perceive it?

00:07:53.156 --> 00:07:56.329
Can you right now perceive this Formless Awareness?

00:07:56.538 --> 00:07:57.408
Take your time.

00:07:57.468 --> 00:08:00.444
Take a few seconds right now.

00:08:00.874 --> 00:08:26.314
And before the sound of my voice or before you even look at the screen or while you are looking at the screen, can you understand that awareness is there prior, before all of this and just be with That.

00:08:28.014 --> 00:08:31.843
That experience is what it's always about.

00:08:32.256 --> 00:08:40.341
Then it says in the verse, in spite of standing still, it is the one that gives the wind of motion to the others who are running.

00:08:40.730 --> 00:08:50.426
So although it doesn't move and it appears that it is standing still, that Self is the one that gives motion to all action.

00:08:50.471 --> 00:08:53.951
The reason behind all action is that Formless Awareness.

00:08:54.011 --> 00:08:58.272
For action to occur, Formless Awareness has to be, there has to be a 'Me'.

00:08:58.277 --> 00:08:59.471
There has to be an 'I'.

00:08:59.895 --> 00:09:06.178
We have to understand that the speed is, the motion is given by Formless Awareness by Brahman.

00:09:06.719 --> 00:09:10.822
Every action is given energy from this Self.

00:09:11.456 --> 00:09:13.989
That's all we need to remember.

00:09:14.625 --> 00:09:15.796
Then verse five.

00:09:17.265 --> 00:09:22.172
It moves and it moves not; it is far as well as near.

00:09:22.995 --> 00:09:28.535
It is the inner realm of everything, as well as the outer shell of everything.

00:09:29.596 --> 00:09:43.697
Now we enter into the world of paradox and paradox is an incredible tool that is used by a lot of the Upanishadic Sages and even by genuinely anyone that's had an enlightened experience.

00:09:43.787 --> 00:09:47.716
Paradox seems to be the best language to explain it.

00:09:48.767 --> 00:09:55.283
I dunno why, but do check out Swami Sarvapriyananda ji's talk on the, the language of paradox.

00:09:55.283 --> 00:09:56.740
It's really, really good, talk.

00:09:57.094 --> 00:10:01.413
The other thing with paradox is, is that we don't need to think about it.

00:10:01.933 --> 00:10:11.956
We go beyond thinking, and we go to the universe of insight when it comes to paradoxes and trying to understand them and trying to get to what it's trying to point to.

00:10:12.134 --> 00:10:18.157
We then go into the idea of trying to perceive where the words are trying to take us.

00:10:18.647 --> 00:10:20.897
Let me repeat the verse again.

00:10:21.350 --> 00:10:25.461
It moves and it moves not; it is far as well as near.

00:10:25.614 --> 00:10:31.321
It is the inner realm of everything as well as the outer shell of everything.

00:10:31.431 --> 00:10:33.264
It moves and it moves, not.

00:10:33.481 --> 00:10:39.312
That self through existence, through Sat, you know, Sat-Chit-Ananda Existence Consciousness Bliss.

00:10:39.451 --> 00:10:50.485
From the existence, part of it, that is moving through all the objects of the universe, that Shared Being, that Ground of Existence, is what's moving through all the objects of the universe.

00:10:50.979 --> 00:11:00.514
Whatever we see, in the universe as an object of sound or an object of a wave or an object of, a rock or a gas or a liquid.

00:11:00.625 --> 00:11:04.899
All of that is done through existence.

00:11:05.601 --> 00:11:09.719
So the Self is that as well.

00:11:09.996 --> 00:11:11.226
That's the way to understand it.

00:11:11.226 --> 00:11:22.971
So even though existence seems to be expanding and planets are rotating and stars are colliding into each other and atoms are colliding in into each other and all that.

00:11:23.172 --> 00:11:31.268
Although all that is happening, but the Formless Awareness is still, is not moving at all while all that is happening.

00:11:31.870 --> 00:11:33.309
So hope that's clear.

00:11:33.422 --> 00:11:37.361
For example, it moves in the Earth's rotation around the sun.

00:11:37.381 --> 00:11:41.524
It moves in the antelopes trying to escape the hungry wild cat.

00:11:41.576 --> 00:11:44.878
It moves in the clouds across the blue sky.

00:11:45.371 --> 00:11:51.769
Then it doesn't move because it is the absolute stillness in all motion.

00:11:52.669 --> 00:12:00.070
For example, it appears that the sun rises and sets, but it is in one place alone.

00:12:00.116 --> 00:12:01.730
It's not moving anywhere.

00:12:01.874 --> 00:12:10.379
Even if the body is sitting still, the blood is still circulating around the body, oxygen is still being circulating around the body.

00:12:10.379 --> 00:12:16.476
In all activity, in all doing, in all motion at the center is stillness.

00:12:16.525 --> 00:12:21.943
Due to the self being all pervading, it doesn't need to move to be somewhere.

00:12:22.726 --> 00:12:23.236
Okay?

00:12:23.846 --> 00:12:26.336
That's what we need to remember when it comes to that.

00:12:26.336 --> 00:12:31.049
Now, the next part of that verse is: it is far as well as near.

00:12:31.330 --> 00:12:41.369
Think of this Brahman, this Nirguna Brahman, this Formless Awareness being at the furthest place in the universe, the furthest point in the universe.

00:12:41.522 --> 00:12:46.111
Go to the absolute edge of the universe conceptually in your mind.

00:12:46.613 --> 00:12:48.548
See if you can get to the furthest edge.

00:12:49.418 --> 00:12:57.953
The Self is still there, and yet the Self is also absolutely near you and is the nearest thing.

00:12:58.433 --> 00:13:11.734
As I often say that it is the space between the eyeball and the eyelid, or even the space between the subtle, the very thin space between the two eyelids when they are closed.

00:13:11.799 --> 00:13:13.779
So it's that near.

00:13:14.496 --> 00:13:14.767
Yeah.

00:13:15.626 --> 00:13:23.336
It's so near that it's touching your skin and you're still not aware that it's touching your skin.

00:13:23.876 --> 00:13:26.283
That's how close this Formless is.

00:13:26.553 --> 00:13:30.844
How close this Formless Awareness is, how close Brahman is.

00:13:31.037 --> 00:13:39.995
It's both close to you, the closest thing and the farthest thing too, hence it's all pervading . I hope it's all starting to make sense now.

00:13:40.725 --> 00:13:48.288
Then next part of the verse, it says: it is the inner realm of everything as well as the outer shell of everything.

00:13:48.499 --> 00:13:50.239
It is a center within everything.

00:13:50.509 --> 00:13:50.808
Yeah.

00:13:50.813 --> 00:13:52.399
The, the heart of everything.

00:13:52.654 --> 00:13:54.215
That's what Brahman is.

00:13:54.501 --> 00:13:57.272
The essence of everything is Nirguna Brahman.

00:13:57.322 --> 00:13:58.851
It is Formless Awareness.

00:13:59.841 --> 00:14:10.601
The whole existence is filled of Formless Awareness, of Nirguna Brahman, and the way to understand this is that it's one the outer shell of everything.

00:14:10.601 --> 00:14:16.481
So even if we put this human body, say in a microscope, I, I once watched this TEDxTalk about it.

00:14:17.172 --> 00:14:20.119
You put the body through,, a huge microscope.

00:14:20.125 --> 00:14:27.302
And if the microscope had to keep zooming in and say it saw some cells, it sees some cells dancing.

00:14:27.432 --> 00:14:29.595
It goes deeper into the cells.

00:14:29.595 --> 00:14:31.054
Then you got the atoms.

00:14:31.163 --> 00:14:32.933
The atoms are all dancing.

00:14:32.933 --> 00:14:40.043
But if you zoom in even more into the atoms and what you see is, Formless energy, that's it.

00:14:40.854 --> 00:14:41.634
Emptiness.

00:14:42.000 --> 00:14:49.139
Even though we have this body right now, this outer shell, but deep within, it's actually just emptiness.

00:14:49.950 --> 00:14:51.279
Formless emptiness.

00:14:52.303 --> 00:14:54.254
That's incredible.

00:14:55.514 --> 00:15:00.734
That basically this Formless energy suddenly has this outer shell.

00:15:01.874 --> 00:15:02.264
Yeah.

00:15:02.984 --> 00:15:11.549
Now think of all of existence as the outer shell, and yet the inner is Formless Awareness.

00:15:11.777 --> 00:15:20.376
Deep within everything is Formless Awareness is Nirguna Brahman or is God, if we must use that word in the right sense now.

00:15:20.447 --> 00:15:23.506
Even the appearance of everything is this Brahman.

00:15:23.604 --> 00:15:26.330
Absolutely everything is Brahman.

00:15:26.576 --> 00:15:28.287
Nothing is false.

00:15:28.494 --> 00:15:33.096
This is a life affirmative, teaching that sees everything as God.

00:15:33.672 --> 00:15:39.249
Or see that God is everything, or God is the only thing and everything appears in it.

00:15:39.859 --> 00:15:42.601
That's a way you can interpret this.

00:15:42.659 --> 00:15:46.772
Then verse six, which is final verse of today.

00:15:47.028 --> 00:15:55.028
They who see all beings in the Self and the Self in all beings do not have to hide or shrink from anything.

00:15:55.201 --> 00:15:59.371
The Rishis of the Upanishads really want us to understand this point very clearly.

00:15:59.509 --> 00:16:01.698
The Absolute Reality is oneness.

00:16:02.605 --> 00:16:08.924
It's all one, all beings in the Self and the Self in all beings, Absolute Oneness.

00:16:09.095 --> 00:16:10.745
There's no doubt about this.

00:16:11.011 --> 00:16:18.303
All objects, all beings of this universe is the Self, is Formless Awareness, nothing less.

00:16:18.417 --> 00:16:22.706
And remember that the Rishis even considered stars to be a being.

00:16:23.636 --> 00:16:27.870
They were that attuned to what they consider to be a being.

00:16:28.129 --> 00:16:29.509
Planets are a being.

00:16:29.543 --> 00:16:39.669
They never see something that is inanimate or what we think has no Consciousness as not being a being.

00:16:39.879 --> 00:16:41.409
It could still be a being.

00:16:41.657 --> 00:16:47.746
Remember when it says all beings in the Self and the Self in all beings, it's considering everything in Existence.

00:16:47.769 --> 00:16:52.289
Nothing from existence is exempt from this both Formless and with form.

00:16:52.629 --> 00:17:01.409
If all the objects of this universe, including you, is the Self, is this Formless Awareness, then the Formless Awareness must be seen in all beings.

00:17:01.409 --> 00:17:02.970
It's a natural byproduct.

00:17:03.096 --> 00:17:06.490
It's not something that, you can escape from, practicing.

00:17:06.940 --> 00:17:12.160
If you escape from practicing that, then there's a problem with what you've understood.

00:17:12.801 --> 00:17:18.311
But yeah, once you understand what you are, you understand that that is the same for everyone.

00:17:18.317 --> 00:17:26.585
It's not literally that, oh yeah, I'm an enlightened being, but the next person isn't, an enlightened being will see everyone as enlightened.

00:17:27.095 --> 00:17:30.365
The only difference is they know it, the other person doesn't.

00:17:30.815 --> 00:17:38.874
So it's just a matter of removing the ignorance and that's what the, Sage does, it removes, they remove their ignorance.

00:17:38.960 --> 00:17:53.990
If we see the self in all beings, then that is truly namaskar, that is truly, you know, Namaste in the, in the true sense, in the true meaning because it doesn't matter if you are young or old, we should always do our pranaam to everyone.

00:17:54.180 --> 00:18:07.950
There is a thing in Indian culture where they find it strange for an older person to bow down to a younger person, they'll always say that an older person should never touch the feet of a younger person.

00:18:08.084 --> 00:18:15.463
And I think that's silly because when you say Namaste, when you say namaskar, you are literally praising the divine in everyone.

00:18:15.476 --> 00:18:17.003
Does the divine have an age?

00:18:17.279 --> 00:18:23.785
And if you're doing pranaam to a body, then you're not really doing namaste and you're not really doing namaskar.

00:18:24.281 --> 00:18:27.311
So we have to really think about what we are doing.

00:18:27.432 --> 00:18:32.375
When we honor the Formless in all, then we see everything and everyone as divine.

00:18:32.615 --> 00:18:37.944
So that's what it comes down to, because as we know, the Self is Formless.

00:18:38.123 --> 00:18:39.528
It's awareness.

00:18:39.648 --> 00:19:01.310
Therefore, you know, once we see that in everything and everyone, then divinity is everywhere and maybe it's, I dunno if it, if it's too soon for me to say this, but even the things that we consider to be the worst things in our lives, even that has an aspect of divinity in it.

00:19:02.044 --> 00:19:16.557
For us in, that's part of Sanatana Dharma, even that which looks bad has a hidden blessing, and that which we consider to be a blessing may have a hidden curse.

00:19:17.924 --> 00:19:22.750
So we understand the balance of everything.

00:19:24.917 --> 00:19:49.632
What I would say here is, from what I'm seeing in this verse, is that even if we consider all beings as our concepts, even then we should see that Formless Awareness is the purest of all concepts and the purest of all, even though we cannot call it a concept, but the, when we put it on paper or in words, it becomes a concept, by, an unfortunate concession.

00:19:49.769 --> 00:19:56.174
Only the Rishis knew this before, but today you can know it, you can know this Truth.

00:19:56.295 --> 00:19:59.384
This is no longer a, a knowledge that is hidden.

00:19:59.625 --> 00:20:01.904
It's right here, right in our faces.

00:20:01.904 --> 00:20:06.490
It's just about having someone teach it to us so we can understand it properly.

00:20:06.885 --> 00:20:12.117
Therefore, understand that you are the Self, and the Self is in you.

00:20:12.768 --> 00:20:19.005
There is no need to hide from any situation face it! There's no need to hide from a challenge.

00:20:19.545 --> 00:20:20.265
Take it.

00:20:20.894 --> 00:20:23.595
There is no need to hide from spiritual attainment.

00:20:24.224 --> 00:20:25.275
Be free from it.

00:20:26.355 --> 00:20:29.984
Nor do you need to shrink away from social ills, correct it.

00:20:30.134 --> 00:20:34.785
Nor do you need to shrink away from injustice, fight for social justice.

00:20:35.484 --> 00:20:39.565
That is the power you get by being the Self.

00:20:39.750 --> 00:21:02.053
Initially it goes back to the first point, the first verse that we looked at today, verse four, where we said that self, if you leave this episode today, just by remembering that you are that self, you are that Formless Awareness, then you've got to where you need to get to.

00:21:02.455 --> 00:21:08.135
If you remember the close proximity of this Formless Awareness, even better.

00:21:08.970 --> 00:21:10.500
That is the end of the episode.
