Ramana’s inquiry

the object the subject has dreamed moves within the dream realm so conjured acquiring an ego, a temporary consciousness to navigate the terrain where it has been so placed being hypnotised by the environment the dreamed object inevitably enters trance forgetting its origin it then seeks to expand itself instinctively pursuing ephemeral objects of heart’s desire the entity by itself is merely inert dust hemmed in by senses five and lower mind so it remains in delusion, pausing not to inquire the answer to the age old simple question: ‘who am I?’ recognising thus earth life as but a dream wherein we’re both the dreamer and the dreamed though we’re a receptor, we may yet tweak the dream instantly by simply shifting into the vibrant void of silence nonchalant to outcomes, ceasing to react our nonjudgmental eye and free flowing spirit navigates the labyrinth leaving behind no residue by vaporising thus, ending the purpose of the dream the paradox of enlightenment is clear who gets illumined when there’s no one here all that really happens is imagined boundaries blur whereafter all that remains is the eternal living light of Self
