Dialogue with Death #25: Part of the whole

Chinmaya Mission - Gita, Upanishads and Ancient Knowledge

How do we move from the subtle to the subtlest? Our physical body first appears in subtle form but before that it exists in unmanifest form, just like a tree is in unmanifest form in a seed, and butter is in its unmanifest form in milk. Similarly, before the total mind was manifest, it was unmanifest. By peeling back these layers, we are moving towards our Self. What we call our individual mind cannot exist without the total mind. The individual jiva cannot exist without Mahan Atma (Totality, Ishvara, God). Know that you are part of the totality, that without it, nothing is possible.
