AndhadRushTi

अन्धदृष्टि
(Blindsight)

You cannot see Him with your eyes but your eyes see everything else because of Him. This is Kenopanishad. Difficult to comprehend. Thus whomsoever you see, no matter when, cannot be He!

The Lord makes it clearer in the Geetaa. He gave divine sight to Arjuna to see Him as the latter had desired. Divine sight at best can show you what you want to see - your vision of what He looks like. Not what He really is. Yes, it is just your imagination, like what you see in your dreams during sleep. In other words, what you see in the wakeful state, with eyes open, is hazy and not solid and real. Call it a waking dream, transient and unreal. Only JnaanadRushTi reveals His TRUE FORM*.

Purandaradaasa makes it simpler. He asks a simple question - "Of what use are these eyes which cannot see Kasturiranga? "The answer is simple and clear. Eyes are useless if the goal is to see God. The rest of the senses, such as the nose and ears, are equally useless and of no consequence.

We live in the darkness of ignorance. Awake, arise and seek the EYES which show you God.

Now pause and think. What my useless mind thinks and writes down, you read with your useless eyes. What would you gain by this useless endeavour? The mind, however, can be made useful. Turn the mind inward. Unlearn all that you have crowded your mind with. Empty it. Make it fit for God to reside in FULL SPLENDOUR.

NOTE;
* i.e. FORMLESS. WHAT YOU SEE IS ONLY PHENOMENAL TO TURN YOUR MIND WITHIN. WHEN YOU SEE BEAUTY IN NATURE YOU THINK OF GOD WHO CREATED IT.
