How to win the mind?

The best way to meditate after one has realized the infinite consciousness, is to meditate AS consciousness, not as a Jiva (mind+body); this will make the path lot easier.

How does the mind arise?

Just as a ripple may arise in an infinitely big ocean, in the same way, a ripple appears in the sea of consciousness.

There is not just one, but several ripples, all appearing in the consciousness (Shiva)from its innate energy (Parvati).

Now, the ocean of consciousness is quite different than the ocean made of water.

The ripples appearing in the ocean of consciousness are also conscious (unlike waves in the sea).

So, these ripples can perceive each other.

This perception is only a movement in a vast ocean of consciousness.

This is where the mind takes birth: one ripple perceives another ripple and forgets their original nature – the vastness of ocean of consciousness.

Perception is not just perception; it also involves comprehension (understanding). (we not only observe something, we also want to understand it and want to know about it also ).

The perception, along with comprehension, generates an individual self (Jiva), based only on thoughts.

So, mind and Jiva are inseparable.

This individual identity then starts its own journey, resulting in a big pile of thoughts, beliefs, convictions, etc., ( Ego ), and Ego gets enclosed in its own cocoon.

Even though the consciousness is a non-doer, the Jiva thinks that it is a doer; even though the consciousness is infinite, Jiva thinks that it is limited; even though the infinite consciousness never dies, Jiva thinks it will die (and get reborn).

All this still happening in pure consciousness (reality) ( the original truth) and still separate from it (unreality) (untruth, relative truth).

This is all Maya (illusion); even illusion is still pure consciousness. (Even dreams happening in you are still you).

The physical actions are not true actions; true actions occur in the mind and then manifest in the world.

Contemplating this deeply can make one realize that the mind is born under a false identity (individuality).

Mind is fake, duality is fake, and all its beliefs are fake, just the way every single dream is.

The true reality is one – the pure consciousness.

Realization of this is enlightenment.

Above is the deepest secret hidden within us, and only you can perceive it via sincere meditation.

It shows that “I-ness” is the first sin.

Dissolving “I”ness merges you into Godliness.
