Hence the statement,\r\nJeevo Brahmaiva Na Apara, is valid philosophically.\r\n\r\nMind is defined as a steady stream of thoughts,\r\nAnd the first thought that occurs is the I Thought.\r\nOn Self Enquiry this I Thought reveals itself as Brahman,\r\nSo we have another Equation, I Thought = Being.\r\n\r\nTat Tvam Asi was translated by Huxley as That Art Thou,\r\nAs Thou art part and parcel of Being, Thou = Being.\r\nThis is a simple equation which many cannot understand,\r\nBut which is written on great temples like Sabarimala.\r\n\r\nQuantum physicists say Consciousness is Fundamental,\r\nSo Consciousness = Being was revealed as Prajnanam Brahma.\r\nConsciousness is the Root, Consciousness is the Substratum,\r\nAnd it is Consciousness which had become all this that is.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"727\" height=\"960\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eastrovedica.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/natya.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10832\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eastrovedica.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/natya.jpg 727w, https:\/\/www.eastrovedica.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/natya-227x300.jpg 227w, https:\/\/www.eastrovedica.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/natya-18x24.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.eastrovedica.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/natya-27x36.jpg 27w, https:\/\/www.eastrovedica.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/natya-36x48.jpg 36w, https:\/\/www.eastrovedica.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/natya-88x116.jpg 88w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 727px) 100vw, 727px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10829","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eastrovedica.com\/wordpress\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10829","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eastrovedica.com\/wordpress\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eastrovedica.com\/wordpress\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eastrovedica.com\/wordpress\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eastrovedica.com\/wordpress\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=10829"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/www.eastrovedica.com\/wordpress\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10829\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10840,"href":"https:\/\/www.eastrovedica.com\/wordpress\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10829\/revisions\/10840"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eastrovedica.com\/wordpress\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=10829"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eastrovedica.com\/wordpress\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=10829"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eastrovedica.com\/wordpress\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=10829"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
