as far as your conscious experience is concerned, you are the basis of the existence. You know everything that exists because you exist. So, your existence is an absolute prerequisite to know the existence of anything else. Whatever that you know as existing keeps changing; one thing that remains constant is the the subject, the observer self, the one which witnesses everything that exists. This unchanging observer is more real when you compare it with the reality of the objects which are observed. As we already discussed, in Vedanta, the definition of that which is real is the one which never changes. This unchanging absolute reality aspect is named as sat or truth

ANTIMA SMARANA

Does a person have the potential to incarnate within the same ancestral line?

According to Gītā what determines your next birth is antim-smaraṇa - the thoughts which occupy your mind at the moment of death - i.e. when you separate from the body. And the thoughts that will spontaneously arise are those which were dominant throughout your life.

So theoretically if you focus hard enough you will accomplish that - but usually no matter how hard you speculate about this project - when the plane is about to crash or the truck is about to hit you - some expletive will usually come to mind!

Buddha took 45 years to teach them and 500 Arahats - Noble Disciples collected his teaching after he passed to Nibbana.

Then they passed it down orally generation after generation and 500 years later, they wrote it down due to famine, decease spread, war etc. and couldn’t lose the Dhamma together with learned monks. They wrote it down on palm leaves in a country now called Sri Lanka. It was not because they were environmental friendly but because China didn’t invent paper and exported to them yet.

2,500 years after Buddha passed to Nibbana, there was Sixth Sanga Council hold and crossed check the text from Theravada branches from eight countries and they certified all of them - original Pitaka, commentaries and sub commentaries.

A monk who knows by heart all Tipitaka is called Dhamma Treasurar or Keeper of Dhamma Treasure. Ancient time there was a war to get Tipitaka.

But, you can read most of Dhamma free online and find out what was taught to human kind 2,600 years ago. The original recording language is Pali and it was not an everyday language anymore. But, thanks to the monks, it is not a mystery language like Egyptian but just to save Buddhist scriptures.

KRSNA X BANANA PEELS

Shortly after rejecting Duryodhana’s opulent feast, Krishna went to Vidura’s house. Vidura was Krishna’s devotee, and was also very affectionate to Arjuna and his four brothers. In fact, on several occasions he had saved them from great danger. Because of this, Krishna was very fond of Vidura.

When Krishna got to Vidura’s house, Vidura was not there, so Krishna pleaded with his wife Viduräëé, “Oh, Vidurani Maiya, I am so hungry! Please give Me something to eat.”

Vidurani was very affectionate to Krishna, and she was anxious to serve Him. She began to offer Him bananas, but in her confusion, she threw away the fruit and gave Him the peels. Krishna affectionately accepted the peels, and relished them joyfully.

They tasted sweeter to Him than all the preparations and offerings made in Dvaraka by his chief queens Rukmini and Satyabhama. While Krishna was completely absorbed in accepting Viduräëé’s offering of banana peels, Vidura came in.

He was astonished at what he saw, and exclaimed, “Oh, Vidurani! What are you doing?”

Krishna tried to caution him, “Don’t speak to her. She is not in her external senses. She is fully absorbed in transcendental love and affection.”

Vidurani, however, came back to external consciousness when she heard her husband speak, and soon realised what was happening. She then gave Krishna the fruit of the bananas and threw away the peels.

Krishna was a little disappointed. “Oh! This fruit is not as tasty as the peels were.”

ANANDA BLISS PURE MIND

The third word ananda or bliss is what liberation feels like. We all always experience the absolute reality each and every minute; in fact, every moment that you experience is the experience of Brahman. But it is clouded by our duality and ignorance. The experience of reality is not pure but it is contaminated by the clouds like delusion,hatred, greed and dissatisfaction. So, people don’t taste the absolute reality in its purity as long as they are in duality. But once a person is liberated, his experience of reality is pure. This way of experiencing cannot be put into words. The word bliss is just an indication to let you know that it feels good. But it is not exactly like the experiential happiness or pleasure. It is more like an extremely peaceful, satisfied, quite ordinary, guilt-free, conflictless, self-less experience of life with a sense of innocence. It is doesn’t feel like anything new but feels like something quite natural and ordinary. You also feel like you have already known it. You have a sense of wonder like a child and a mind similar to a child. It is not a distinct experience, the type which comes and goes. It is not an altered state of consciousness either. It feels more authentic and real than the conceptualized self and it feels like there is a synchronicity with the whole existence. You feel boundless and weightless. This experience of reality is ananda.

Buddha was not interested in describing absolute reality at all. He discouraged thinking about how nirvana feels like. Because, no matter how hard you try and how much intelligent you are, you cannot imagine how the nondual reality feels like, when you yourself are living in duality. This is true! But Sat-Chit-Ananda gives you an idea to work with. It gives you something that your mind can grasp.
