8. "FRUITS OF REALIZATION OF BRAHMAM"

-

Chapter-2.

Section-2.

Mantram-8.

1. The SUN knows no darkness since light cannot suffer darkness.

2. The ROPE knows no snake.

3. The POST is no friend of the ghost.

4. A deluded person see only snake or ghost, instead of rope or post.

5. When put an end to delusion, he/she will recognise, rope or post.

6. Now the existence of ghost and snake is gone.

7. In this sense pure Consciousness is the essence behind the real and the unreal.

8. Truth is the essence behind the true or false.

Here, in this 8th mantram he who sees both higher and lower means the real (true) and the unreal  (false ), thereafter there is no ignorance, the knots of the heart  mean ignorance, desires, actions. These are broken and all doubts of real and unreal ( true or false), are removed.

(Self effulgent Brahmam) & Mantram-10. (All Illuminating Brahmam.) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here the word ‘karma’ is used in the plural. A controversy has arisen by commentators interpreting the word ‘karma’ as plural. How many karmas are there? Plural implies more than two. In Sanskrit grammar, plural is not dual, it is more than dual. In the English language, more than one is plural. But in Sanskrit, more than one is dual, and more than dual is plural.
