The Upanishads - Mandhata Global

32
When the mind, after realizing the knowledge that
Atman alone is real, becomes free from imaginations
and therefore does not cognize anything, for want of
objects to he cognized, it ceases to be the mind.
33
Knowledge (Jnana), which is unborn and free from
imagination, is described by the wise as ever inseparable
from the knowable. The immutable and birthless
Brahman is the goal of knowledge. The birthless is
known by the birthless.
34
One should know the behavior of the mind which,
being endowed with discrimination and free from
illusions is under control. The condition of the mind in
deep sleep is not like that but is of a different kind.
The mind is withdrawn in deep sleep, but it is not so
when the mind is controlled. The controlled mind is
verily the fearless Brahman, the light of whose
omniscience is all-pervading.
36
Brahman is birthless, sleepless, dreamless, nameless
and formless. It is ever effulgent and omniscient. No
duty, in any sense, can ever be associated with It.
