Visions

" God vision is only vision of the Self objectified as the God of one's own faith. Know the Self .
Visions are not external. They appear only internally. If external
they must assert themselves without there being a seer. In that case
what is the warrenty for their existance? The seer only.
The seer alone is 'pratyaksha' . All other perceptions are only
secondary knowledge. The present super-imposition of the body as 'I'
is so deep-rooted, that the vision before the eyes is considered
'pratyaksha' but not the seer himself.
A stanza in Thevaram says : ' O sages, eager to get over all misery,
worry not about inferances and examples ! Our light is ever shining
forth from with in ! With mind clear, live in God !'
This is direct perception. Will the common people admit it? They want
God to appear in front of them as a bright Being mounted on a bull.
Such a vision once originated must also end. It is therefore
transient."

........ Bhagawan Sri Ramana Maharshi.
