Exerpts from Atma Nirvriti by Atmananda Krishna Menon

The Origin and the Dissolution of the World

I Knowledge objectified is thought. Then the 'I' remains as the witness of thought.

II Without My being seen as the witness, thought is joined to Me and I am made the thinker by living beings.

III And subsequently, the thinker is made the physical perceiver and then the corresponding thought becomes a gross object.

IV Thus living beings make of Me the world, and ignoring Me, live in bondage.

V The illusion of the world which comes about by these successive superimpositions can be removed only by going back along the same path.

Thoughts and Myself

I How can thoughts which rise and set in Me, be other than Myself?

II When there is a thought, I am seeing Myself; when there is no thought, I am remaining in My own glory.

All Is Consciousness

I Knowledge has nothing to know. The insentient can never know, being insentient.

II Therefore no one knows anything. All beings stand established as pure consciousness.
