Atma Bodha Ch 4 - Upadhis

Atma Bodha Ch 4 - Upadhis ---------------------------- Great human beings can communicate to us in the dreams. Examples used:  akasha is one but is divided water is tasteless & takes on taste of anything it is in. Manisha Panchakam story of Sankaracharya - Are the sun, space different in the street where Chandala or Brahmin lives? - Five slokas - each sloka is a mahavakya and the fifth one is the summary Upadhi - 'adjunct' - nearby, transfer its attributes, appears to be false Fireball, blue cloth next to a crystal - examples of upaadhi. There is a subtle part of five elements - tanmatras. Universe is created all at once! Like in our dream world. In a split second. Which entity is experiencing the world? - ego appropriates the experience; there is no experiencer! Ignorance has no cause; but it has the effect - desire.... Ego is a thought! Reflected consciousness has no instruments to experience? What happens in pralay? - anshik pralay - life gets wiped out; new cabinet comes -
