VEDANTA : P 16 of 23 .

BRIHADARANYAKA    OF     SHUKLA   JAJURVEDA :      Page   17   of    20
=========================================
The   Shining Self  never   dreams and   keeps   IT's   body   alive with   the   Vital  force   of   PRANA.
In  Dreaming -state ,shining   Self  assumes  many   forms  .
When one  is freed from   all   desires, the  Self  enters  the   State   of  Dreamless   sleep.
In   the    Unitive-State   one  sees  without    seeing ( Supra-Conscious   or   Super -Sensorial Vision ).
One  sees  externally,only   when one  is  in  Separative state  ( Duality   or  Subject-Object   Situation).
When   the   body grows   weak   in  Old-Age,the Self   separates IT-self.

He  who  is  dying  merges   in   Consciousness  and   thus  Consciousness  accompanies  him   when the  individual   Self   departs  along  with   the   Impressions('prints')   of    all  that  he has   done , good   and bad.
We   are   said  to   be   what  our  DESIRE   was  and   is.
It is  the   Desire   at  the   time   of   Death  that  determines  what our next   Life  will   be.(  Priciple   adapted   by Gautam  Buddha ).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The  THUNDER    SPEAKS :
Children   of  PRAJAPATI  ,the  Creator  were gods , human  being  and   asuras (  godless  beings).
They   all   learnt  from   Prajapati  the  meaning   of Lightning-Sound  ---as  ;'Dwa'.
  To    gods   it  was   'DAMYATA'   or   SELF - CONTROL.
  To   humans   it   was ' DATTA'   or   Spirit   of  GIVING.
  To   Asuras    it  was   DAYADDHYAM   or  spirit of  KINDNESS .

* DEATH  IS   THE  FINAL   STATE    OF    SELF  IN   LAST    PHASE   OF   LIVING   ( Not  an END )AND  WAITING   IN   'TRANSIT '-STATE .
