MAYA
A
The concept ‘whole Universe is as Unreal as Water in a Mirage’ is deeply rooted in Hindu philosophy and is often associated with the concept of Maya. Maya is the illusory nature of the world, according to Hindu teachings, as described in various Hindu scriptures such as the Vedas, Upanishads, and the Bhagavad Gita.
A
n Hindu philosophy, Maya is the cosmic illusion that veils the true nature of reality. It's the idea that the universe we perceive is not the ultimate reality but rather a fleeting and deceptive appearance. Just as water in a mirage appears real but is ultimately insubstantial and illusory, the material world is seen as transient and illusory in Hindu thought.

This concept is often used to emphasize the impermanence and fleeting nature of material existence. It suggests that attachment to worldly things leads to suffering because these things are ultimately unreal and subject to change.
The goal in Hindu spirituality is to transcend Maya and realize the ultimate truth or reality, which is often described as Brahman or Atman. Through practices such as meditation, self-inquiry, and devotion, individuals seek to transcend the illusions of Maya and attain spiritual liberation (moksha) by realizing their true nature as divine or interconnected with the ultimate reality.

PERSON AND WORLD MIND(GOD) REMAIN DISTINCT
"We exist always in utter dependence on the Universal Mind. Man and God may meet and mingle in his periods of supreme exaltation, he may feel the sacred presence within himself to the utmost degree, but he does not thereby abolish all the distinctions between them absolutely. For he arrives at the knowledge of the timeless spaceless divine infinitude after a process of graded personal effort, whereas the World-Mind's knowledge of itself has forever been what it was is and shall be, above all processes and beyond all efforts."

Cardiac specific lab markers such as troponin and beta-natriuretic peptide (BNP) can help to
distinguish between a patient with a respiratory infection and one with cardiac dysfunction. Both are
frequently elevated in children with myocarditis or heart failure. While an elevated troponin or BNP
may help confirm your suspicion for heart failure and myocarditis, normal results do not rule these
conditions out. Additionally, the normal range for BNP varies with age in children, so be mindful when
interpreting results. If there is clinical suspicion for heart failure, an echocardiogram should be done
to evaluate cardiac structure and function. Point of care cardiac ultrasound by the ED provider can be
useful to rapidly assess global cardiac function but is not a substitute for a formal echocardiogram.
Typical findings in myocarditis include left ventricular or biventricular dysfunction, ventricular
dilation, and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction.

CELL GENESIS
A key part of the new findings, made by a team from The Scripps Research Institute in California, is that a chemical process called phosphorylation may have happened earlier than previously thought.
This process adds groups of atoms that include phosphorus to a molecule, bringing extra functions with it – functions that can turn spherical collections of fats called protocells into more advanced versions of themselves, able to be more versatile, stable, and chemically active.

ta qra
The easiest way to (inadequately) describe this is to realize there is no one, no ‘self,’ inside the body organism, and that whatever appears as “my” or “our” awareness just appears as ‘borrowed’ from Pure Awareness or Infinite Consciousness. This is attested by Buddha, Adi Shankara, and all other ‘realized sages’ through Ramana Maharshi and beyond, but can only be confirmed when there has been a total seeing through the illusion of the false ‘self’ and its utter collapse of that which would claim awareness (or anything else) as “mine.”
That’s why I said ‘inadequately described’ above. This question is a mental one, asked by a ‘mind’ which is certain it is a real ‘separate self.’ So even though we can describe this no-self, no-‘personal’-awareness truth, it will remain just conceptual (and therefore utterly useless) to the mind that asked it or any of the conceptual answers given.

From ~~~ Talks with Sri Ramana Maharshi, T. 43
Q.:
We surrender; but still there is no help.
M.:
Yes. If you have surrendered, you must be able to abide by the
will of God and not make a grievance of what may not please you.
Things may turn out differently from what they look apparently.
Distress often leads men to faith in God.
Q.:
But we are worldly. There is the wife, there are the children,
friends and relatives. We cannot ignore their existence
and resign ourselves to Divine Will,
without retaining some little of the personality in us.
M.:
That means you have not surrendered as professed by you.
You must only trust God.
Q.:
I have read Brunton’s book A Search in Secret India,
and was much impressed by the last chapter, where he says
that it is possible to be conscious without thinking.
I know that one can think, remaining forgetful of the physical body.
Can one think without the mind?
Is it possible to gain that consciousness which is beyond thoughts?
M.:
Yes. There is only one consciousness, which subsists in the waking,
dream and sleep states. In sleep there is no ‘I’. The ‘I-thought’ arises
on waking and then the world appears. Where was this ‘I’ in sleep?
Was it there or was it not? It must have been there also,
but not in the way that you feel now.
The present is only the ‘I-thought’,
whereas the sleeping ‘I’ is the real ‘I’.
It subsists all through.
It is consciousness.
If it is known you will see that it is beyond thoughts.
Q.:
Can we think without the mind?
M.:
Thoughts may be like any other activities,
not disturbing to the Supreme consciousness.

equanimity is. Basically it's tranquility towards everything, not reacting much.
So if I see someone getting hurt, and then I scream and cry and run and just panic. That's not equanimity. It's better to remain calm, maybe call someone or do something useful, or do nothing really.
Or if someone experiences a little pleasure or happiness, and then cheers and dances and screams, then that's not equanimity either.
Equanimity just looks like tranquility. So like a monk or a doctor or something like that.

Concentration and Realization: The yogi's ultimate goal is to merge their mind completely with these subtle internal sounds. This merging leads to the realization of chidakasha, the pure consciousness within the space of the heart. By immersing oneself in this realm of pure consciousness, the yogi experiences a profound sense of awareness and liberation.

Well it is quite obviously true. What is born out of the mind? Ideas, thoughts, attachments, fears, anxieties, unfulfilled desires, loneliness, etc. They are so fleeting and mercurial! They are not a stable reality, but illusionary, shifting, without a basis.
What underlies them all? Consciousness. Pure consciousness - like a deep lake beneath the reflections on its surface. Dive into That. Abide in That. Become established in That, and the vicissitudes of the shallow surface illusions lose so much of their power to hurt you.

For in so far as I wish, I recollect my manifold past lives, that is, one birth, two births, three births,… a hundred births, … a hundred thousand births, … And in so far as I wish, with the divine eye, which is purified and surpasses the+ human, I see beings passing away and reappearing, inferior and superior, fair and ugly, fortunate and unfortunate, and I understand how beings pass on according to their actions thus: 'These worthy being as who are ill-conducted in body, speech, and mind, revilers of noble ones, wrong in their views, giving effect to wrong view in their actions, on the dissolution of the body, after death, have reappeared in a state of deprivation, in a bad destination, in perdition, even in hell; but these worthy being as who are well-conducted in body, speech, and mind, not revilers of noble ones, right in their views, giving effect to right view in their actions, on the dissolution of the body, after death, have reappeared in a good destination, even in the heavenly world.' And by realizing for myself with direct knowledge, I here and now enter upon and abide in the deliverance of mind and deliverance by wisdom that are taintless with the destruction of the taints.

TAS QRA
The clearest indication that you’ve gone as far as you can with what the physical plane has to offer is that you’re no longer intrigued by the plays taking place here, nor are you able to immerse yourself for very long in the melodramas of life.
Everything has become like viewing a soap opera. You can observe the goings on around you and know what framework someone is dealing with (such as working for a corrupt boss, loved/unloved, teacher/student, partnership, dependent/independent, etc.); you can recognize what connections you have and when they will trigger; you know what each connection is for; and you spend more time in the astral plane then on the physical plane.
Because few of your entity mates are still incarnate, you’ll find it very difficult to connect with other people. Most often you will seek to be alone rather than have to deal with the trivial pursuits and concerns that occupy most other people. Final cycle souls no longer have to search for the truth because instinctively they already know what it is. They and their soul are more in tune with each other and so work in tandem rather than at odds.

We are organisms empty of the “self” . If there is someone inside this organism looking for something, wanting to be aware of something, trying to sit in meditation or anything then the “person” is still in the ego trap.
You have to realise that an organism is an empty of the “self”. The “personal self” is an ego , an illusion. Drop this now!
Personal self is the cause of suffering. If there is Nobody (empty of the personal self) then still problem is there but nobody, no he or she who is suffering. Everything is just what is! Empty of the “self”.
