Ramana Maharshi
“The pure mind is itself Brahman; it therefore follows that Brahman is not other than the mind of the sage.”
Ramana Maharshi, Talks With Ramana Maharshi: On Realizing Abiding Peace and Happiness

Amit Ray
“Brahman is the ultimate reality; it is simultaneously Saguna and Nirguna; divisions are due to ignorance. Mind and intellect can never catch hold of it; they have only one option and that is to merge with it.”
Amit Ray

Kabir
“The river and its waves are one surf: where is the difference between the river and its waves?
When the wave rises, it is the water; and when it falls, it is the same water again. Tell me, Sir, where is the distinction?
Because it has been named as wave, shall it no longer be considered as water?

Within the Supreme Brahma, the worlds are being told like beads:
Look upon that rosary with the eyes of wisdom.”
Kabir, One Hundred Poems of Kabir

Ivan Baran
“Zamisli da postoji ritam. Kao zaigrani ples opstojnosti, da je sve jedno i dobro i da ništa nije toliko strašno bitno... kako bi to bilo lijepo! Zamisli da si ti ja, a ja sam ti, u svojim dubinama da smo jedno te isto, a tek življenje nas je gomilom sjećanja zbunilo, kao kad pokušavamo zapamtiti brojke, a netko nam kraj glave nabraja što drugo, i tako zaboravimo...�
U sjeni od lišća je to govorio tanani glas mlade žene, blago zadihane, u bjelkastoj, debeloj, nenaročitoj haljini; nosila je crne cipelice. Njezine ruke su gole, mekane, blijede su, oblaste kao u djeteta, lice joj tako dobroćudno i vedro i neopisivo lako spremno na smijeh. Korak od nje, tumara bolesnik, tmuran, rezoner, malo od nje mlađi, emigre-inteligent imena Immanuel, koji tek nedavno je progonom napustio svoju zemlju. Oni ne govore istim jezikom, ali se razumiju; možda ne kognitivno, ali na razini čuvstava, shvaćaju se, osjete međusobne potrebe. I tako razmiljenom prašinom i opaljenim kamenjem, paučinom, tarabama ušuškanim u suhoj travi, starim mršavim stablima prelaze njihovi pogledi u hodu, a kamenje pucketa. Lijevo i desno parložine, šumarci, suha divlja loza i korov na osunčanoj zemlji.
“Kad bi sve bilo jedno...�, Immanuel prihvati, kao šaptom, lice skrivajući, “Tada bi svaka teškoća naših života, svaka trauma i bol zbilja bila samo stvar zaboravljanja i podsjećanja, tek bi se valjalo podsjetiti da ono što ćuti bol, što je poniženo, to zaista nisi ti...�
“Točno o tomu govorim.�, žensko kaza, i odmah zatim se nasmiješi. “Vidiš, Immanuel, kako je bolje kad smo vani... kako dan zapravo liječi, zrak, prostor, sunce, prašnjav cvijet; zemlja zna što je čovjeku potrebno...! A kuća je neki ljudski izum, kutija koja polako guši, dosta troši, ona je zaštitnik, a ipak nije prijatelj...�
O lijevoj opuštenoj ruci, pod sjenom rukava bijele košulje, mladić ne osjeti težinu, niti opaža hladnoću i cjelove, ali nekako čuje kuckanje ručnoga sata, od željeza, od kože, oblog, tankog, starog, ne sjeća se odakle mu. Vjetar ga udara po stomaku, i on je zgrčen, glava mu pognuta, sluša hod žene do sebe, oslušne:
“Ne osjećaš li se bolje...?�
“Malo samo. Ali je to, čini mi se, više do glave trenutno. Tako pasivno, neprestano, more me neke neugodne misli.�
“Onda ih izreci.�, glas je sada bio malo dalje; to je bilo rečeno brzo, pomalo nehajno, očas u vjetrenom zapuhu glasnije:
“Samo ih istreseš u sunce, ovako, kao deku, otreseš, odbaciš, samome svjetlu kažeš što osjećaš... a onda u svjetlu što već bude. Osvijetljene misli se makar vide, manje su strašne zato...”
Ivan Baran, Veliki pad

Neel Burton
“The oldest Vedantic school, Advaita [‘Not two’], represents an extreme and purist position in arguing that Brahman alone is real. The self and the world are within Brahman, with any apparent difference arising from illusion [maya] and ignorance [avidya]. It is as with a rope, which seems to be a snake, or a seashell, which seems to be of silver. This world is like the foam on the sea, or a peacock’s egg, created simply for play [lila]. Since Brahman is all, Brahman is without attributes. When the mind, which is given to maya, tries to conceive of Brahman, it sees Ishvara in one of his many forms. If certain Upanishadic statements appear to be theistic, it is because their author (nominally, Brahman) is catering to his audience. Only in deep sleep, when we are no longer dreaming, might we experience something of the formlessness of Brahman. We are then pure, disengaged consciousness, like the sun after it has set. This is the experience of disembodied Atma, of death, of home.”
Neel Burton, Indian Mythology and Philosophy: The Vedas, Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita, Kama Sutra� And How They Fit Together
