The world-appearance or illusion is perceived; the supreme consciousness remains unseen....The reality of infinite consciousness remains incomprehensible. Hence there arises the notion of a complete void or sunya; this, too, is real.

Saintly men look upon all with equal vision; they who know the reality know that it is the self of all.

The notion that everything is void or sunya is right for it is the result of much investigation....The knowers of the truth have realized that this infinite consciousness is neither void nor non-void; it is omnipotent but not that which is seen or known....One should stand firm in one's own realization without being distracted or deflected.

When the wave subsides, water is not destroyed. When the body is destroyed, the consciousness remains unchanged.

Even as floating dust particles do not affect space, pleasure and pain do not touch one who is established in the realization of the one indivisible, infinite consciousness.

I know what I am and I know who you all are. I am but your own consciousness, seated here in order to instruct you: I am neither human nor celestial nor divine. I am here as the fruit of your merit. In fact I am neither this nor the other.

That "nothing" which remains after everything has been negated as "not this, not this" is pure consciousness (cidambaram). The entire universe is but pure consciousness as it was and as it is.....When its experience of its own inherent potentialities is continued, it appears as the world.....All external objects are reflected in the mirror of one's consciousness which when inquired into is seen immediately. When thus investigated, their true nature as pure consciousness is realized.
