An educated man asked : Is there an Absolute Being ? What is its relation to the relative existence ?
Sri Bhagavan : Are they different from each other ? All the questions arise only in the 'mind'. The mind arises with waking and subsides in deep sleep. As long as there is a 'mind', so long will there be such questions and doubts.
D.: There must be stage after stage of progress for gaining the Absolute. Are there grades of Reality ?
Sri Bhagavan : There are no grades of Reality. There are grades of experience for the jiva and not of Reality. If anything can be gained anew, it could also be lost, whereas the Absolute is central -- here and now.
