While life is short, how can a single minute be wasted? You should pass through this world without any dirt touching you. Where there are no expectations of any kind at all, no blemish of any kind at all; complete purity is there, then there is the status of Gnani! Gnani Purush does not even have the attachment for the body. Gnani Purush is without ego or 'my-ness".
Mamata my-ness means 'mine' and as a result of my-ness, T has continued to exist. The span of my-ness can expand from 'my body' to 'my wife, my house, my town, my country, and my world."
My-ness should be there with a boundary. The boundary of my-ness means, it will be existing as long as one is alive, for example, this body; thus any further extention of my-ness should not be there, including the my-ness for the only son. Otherwise, that extended my-ness will only be painful.
If an insured steamer boat drowns, how much worrying is there by the insurance agent? If one's my-ness is of that kind, it will cause no pain.
If a bunglow burns down after completion of the sales documents, does anything happen? No. If my-ness can vanish by papers of agreement, can it not go away by correct understanding? Otherwise, the bunglow will say, 'Boss, either I will go or you will go."
What are the rules in a museum? You are allowed to see and tour around but can't take anything with you. Just like that, people have to leave everything behind and go with respect, lying down in a funeral bier! In a world of that type, why have all these headaches?
What is indicated by the my-ness that causes clashes? Why is there pain when the wife who is really not your own dies? At the time of the marriage ceremony this my-ness became completely binding by, 'my wife, my wife. Because of that, there was the psychological effect and the myness entered about the wife. This is what causes the pain, and the freedom from this pain occurs when the complex knots of my-ness are untangled by saying, 'not mine, not mine.'
The worldly things are not the impediments but my-ness is an impediment. The object for which there is my-ness will be the binding object. In fact, what object is ours? In the end, even the body does not accompany us!
