THE ESSENCE OF RIBHU GITAThe following verses constitute the teachings of Siva to Ribhu,who in turn transmits those teachings to his disciple Nidhaga Rishi.The treatise goes by the name Ribhu Gita.`Sahaja Nishta' or The Natural State60. The firm faith of being the Self is sufficient to dispelall thought and establish one in Brahman-Self. In due course ofthis practice, even the thought involved in that faith fades awayleading to the spontaneous effulgence of the Self. If a personhearkens to this teaching and practises the faith, even if he is agreat sinner, he is washed clean of all his sins and is establishedin Brahman-Self. (Ch.26, v.42)61. There is certainly no such thing as mind with itsconstituents of thought and thought forms of objects. In thisconviction one should ever abide still and at peace, in the stateof thought-free alert Awareness-Self which endures after allsadhanas and its rigours have exhausted themselves in Brahman-Self. (Ch.27, v.29)62. Having gained the experience that there is no creator,no maya, no duality, and no objects at all, and that pureAwareness-Self alone exists, one should ever remain still andpeaceful in that state of Selfhood. (Ch.27, v.34)63. If a person gives heed to these teachings he wouldcertainly gain the grace of Lord Siva and attain the state ofSelfhood even though he is immersed in the dense darkness ofnescience which could not be banished by the glare of a millionsuns. (Ch.27, v.43)
