VIVEKACHUDAMANI 177

402. Where the root of dehision is dis- solved like darkness in light, — in the Supreme Truth, the One without a second and Absolute, — whence can there be diversity?

{Root 0/ delusion — i. e. Ignorance.]

403. How can the talk of diversity apply to the Supreme Truth which is one and homogeneous? Who has ever noticed diversity in the unmixed bliss of the state of profound sleep?

404. Even before the realisation of the highest Truth the universe does not exist in the Absolute Brahman, the Essence of Existence. In none of the three states of time the snake is ever observed in the rope, nor a drop of water in the mirage.

[ Three states 0/ time — past, present and future. ]
