The Being, Consciousness and Happiness
Three are the aspects of life: the Being (Sat in Sanskrit), the consciousness (Chit), and happiness (Ananda). But the real consciousness of the Being, that is not so far from the Being itself, is trapped among the multiplicity of psychic aggregates that personify our errors, and that we carry inside of us.
Only the consciousness can give us a correct sentiment; that sentiment would seem to be cruel to the others, because the others are trapped in the false sentiments that do not have any relation with the authentic sentiment of the Being.
The sentiment of the objective real consciousness is what really counts, but in order for us to have that authentic sentiment of real Objective consciousness, first of all we need to disintegrate the psychic aggregates.
In accordance with the disintegration of the different aggregates, the living personifications of our defects, the voice of the consciousness will become more and more strong. The sentiment of the Being, that is to say, of the consciousness, will be felt more and more in an intuitive way. And in proportion to our feeling the consciousness, we will realize that the false sentiment of the “I” lead us to the error.
But this is extraordinarily delicate, because in life all of us have suffered a lot, that is obvious. We also have gone through the mistaken way, that is clear. In all the aspects of our life, in each instant, we have felt here, in the heart, something, something, something whose name is sentiment.
We have always taken that something as the voice of our consciousness. We have taken that something as the sentiment of our self, as the real sentiment, and we have obeyed that sentiment as the only thing that can lead us through the straight path, etc. But unfortunately, we have been mistaken, my dear friends. The proof of our mistake is that much later we have had other sentiments that were absolutely different, totally different, and much more later we have also had other sentiments, that were absolutely different.
Then, which one of them is the real one? So, we have been victims of a self-deceit. We have always confused the sentiment of the “I” with the sentiment of the Being. We have always been led by self-deceit, and here there cannot be exceptions.
I even walked through the mistaken way when I believed that the sentiment of the “I” was the sentiment of the Being. There are no exceptions: each one of us has been a victim of the self-deceit! To reach the real sentiment, to attain the precise sentiment, is something tremendous; that precise sentiment belongs to the superlative consciousness of the Being.
We have to walk through the path of the intelligence’s aristocracy and nobleness of spirit, and accordingly, as we walk through that very hard path of self-knowledge and the observation of ourselves from moment to moment, we will learn to feel correctly, we will learn to know the authentic sentiment of the superlative consciousness of the Being.
