When the body is shed

Posted on Sep 5th, 2007 by sanmugan : Seeker of truth sanmugan

There is only one Self in all creatures.
The One appears many, just as the moon
Appears many, reflected in water.

The Self appears to change its location
But does not, just as the air in a jar
Changes not when the jar is moved about.
When the jar is broken, the air knows not;
But the Self knows well when the body is shed.

-Amritabindu Upanishad
