Question:
who is trying to look at the source. Should searcher loose his identity too to be in wisdom. Does wisdom only prevails?
Sri Prabhuji:
SELF(atma – Shiva) takes the role of self (jiva) as part of Leela (play of consciousness). Role is so engrossing that self forgets I AM Infinite SELF and starts living as I an limited body- mind- intellect. In other words Shiva believes he is jiva without really becoming Jiva. It is like an actor playing role of beggar suffering totally thinking he is beggar even though as an actor he is free from suffering. Nothing has happened to the actor in reality.
Shiva is considered as Nataraja – great actor. Shiva takes role of jiva in drama of life (leela) and gets 100% involved since he is great actor – Nataraja.
In summary Shiva (SELF) assumes role of jiva (self) in drama of life (leela) and suffers. Same jiva(self) searches “who am I” and recognizes “I am Shiva (SELF)”.
