( VI.2 - 125 ) The yogis who practise contemplation, and who attain various psychic powers, through grace or boons, are subject to ignorance, which is noticed in them.
Hence, they contemplate not the truth, but something which is other than the real.
( IV - 28-30 ) Even as a mirror reflects an object held close to it, one's behaviour reflects as the ego-sense in one's consciousness.
( VI.2 - 48 ) The self is highly pleased with the diverse (do as you please) forms of worship one adopted before.
It bestows on one the pure messenger known as viveka (wisdom).
By means of holy company, study of scriptural truth, and illumination, it brings the jiva closer to the pure, primordial state of oneness.
( V - 48 ) That which you see now is an illusion: it is truly naught but the self, but perceived by the mind which has not been purified and which has not realised the truth.
( II - 13 ) He who, though living amongst all is unaffected by them, neither feels elated nor hates, even as one is during sleep - he is self-controlled.
( VI.2 - 73 ) In comparison with the greatest among mountains, a subatomic particle is minute; even so are the comparative dimensions of this whole universe and that eternal infinite consciousness.
( III - 45 46 ) You may consider it the fruit of your austerity or worship of the deity; but it is consciousness alone that bestows the fruit upon you - even as the fruit that seems to fall from the sky really falls from the tree.
( VI.1 - 97 ) If such destruction can be comprehended, it is surely the trick of consciousness.
Hence, consciousness alone exists, neither one nor many!
Enough of this discussion.
( V - 91 ) Thus having bound itself, having subjected itself to sorrow (like the silkworm with the cocoon), in due course of time it attains to liberation, because its nature is infinite consciousness.
