Perfection,ignorance and wisdom

in #philosophyspirituality9 years ago (edited)

'' The idea of perfection is due to the absence of parts.Parts can appear only with time, space and form.However, the sense of completeness appears without these agencies, implying a yearning for them- thus giving rise to the sense of want.Then and there limitations come into being, and the fundamental cause of ignorance manifests as 'I am.'That is the embryonic seed from which shoots forth the sprout of the body as the individual self ( growing up to the gigantic tree of the cycle of births and deaths.The cycle of births and deaths does not end unless ignorance is put an end to.This can happen only with a perfect knowledge of the self, not otherwise.
Such wisdom as can destroy ignorance is clearly of two sorts: indirect and direct.Knowledge is first aquired from a Master and through him from the scriptures.Such indirect knowledge cannot fulfil the object in view.Because theoretical knowledge alone does not bear fruit; practical knowledge is necessary which comes through samadhi alone.Knowledge born of nirvikalpa samadhi generates wisdom by the eradication of ignorance and objective knowledge.''

-Tripura Rahasya, chapter XVII,verse 31-38

It is the effect our Karma Throughout life cycle. Body damage but Soul change from one body to another. If when our soul meet paramatma then there is no incarnation again. When we Attain true conscienceness Nature, then there is no self, we unified to paramatma.

According to Himalayan Masters, karma is doership.Where there is no doer, there is no karma.Doership is caused by Awareness identifying itself with the sense of 'i am'.
