Just as millions of mud-pots are all in a sense nothing but mud, so to there is a "Divine Eternal Factor" out of which the pluralistic world has risen.
The pots have been born from mud, are sustained in mus; again, must after destruction, go back to mud, so too the pluralistic world of phenomena has no other substance for their sustenance than the TRUTH.

In Truth they exist and to Truth they return when they are withdrawn from their state of manifestation.
'That fundamental Truth, the Ultimate, Eternal, the All-pervading, Conscious Principle, is pointed out to the student as "AUM. "

To be continued  .....

Born in Bharatham, Living in Sanatana Dharmam that is Hinduism, Living with Hindus, Muslims and Christians are ignorant of the Values of Bharatham and her Sanatana Dharmam.

Here Rishi-s brilliantly explain the TRUTH.

Members read carefully and assimilate, to live in this TRUTH.
