QnA On The Trignosis Program

#### 1 - How will we get the proof that I am not the body, but I exist even without the body?
I exist without the body
Knowledge that I am not dependent on the body
Without the body there will be no intelligence, no knowledge

How to know if there will be a screen without the picture?
There will be no one asking for proof
Belief - Knowledge is possible without the body, mind or intelligence

#### 2 - Everything can be removed but not the brain, so am I the activity of the brain?
It can be removed (a part at a time)
Many creatures do not have this organ
Which activity? I am one, not many
Gradually, on removing the brain, the experience will change, not the experiencer
On removing which picture will the screen disappear?

Self knowledge will also disappear

There will be no proof, nor anyone to take proof
It is not me who is born from memory, but my knowledge
If memory is removed gradually, the experience will change, not the experiencer
Many memories have been destroyed
Which memory? I am one, not many
Belief - The experiencer and its knowledge are the same

#### 4 - I am immortal, but how will we get the proof that I will exist after death?
Who will get it?
If the person still exists, then by progressive elimination
By direct experience and logic
Then it is not death, it is life, in another form
The proof of immortality is found in present not in future
What is it that will die?
There will be no knowledge without the instrument
Even the experience of tomorrow cannot be known, how about death?
Belief - The event that will happen in the future can be known today

#### 5 - If I do not exist in sleep, does it mean that I am changeable? 
Sleep is a state, the state is changeable
Sleep is also an experience, coming and going
The body is active, so is the mind and the senses
There is no memory of sleep state
I cannot remember an incident from 10 years ago, but I was there
When the previous image is erased, does the screen also disappear?

#### 6 - How can I experience myself if not through the senses? Will that experience happen in a subtle state?
It will not happen
What will experience it?
All experiences will happen through senses
The screen cannot appear on itself, its false form can appear
All experiences are me (non-dual level), I experience only myself
Belief - I am some special experience

#### 7 - If all experiences happen to me, then why don't I know the experiences of other people?
People are experiences
There is no one else (Nondual level)
Experience is had, it cannot be known
Knowing means knowledge is in the memory, all people have their own memory
There are many experiences, which the person himself does not know
Even after knowing everyone's experiences, the basic knowledge remains the same
The screen is just the background of all the pictures, there is no memory in it
Belief - I am a person, I am different from others

#### 8 - If you are also me, then why do I not experience your thoughts?
The thoughts are neither mine nor yours, I am the witness
Example of windows
Many mental processes are not experienced
Even after experiencing everyone's thoughts, the knowledge is the same
Even after knowing everyone's thoughts, there will be a doubt that the witness is different
Belief - It takes a strange experience to prove that the essence is one and the same

#### 9 - If I am not any experience, then why do I have a body, why do I have this mind, feelings, thoughts, or why is there a world?
You do not have these
All experiences are causeless
Arbitrary reasons can be given

#### 10 - If I am bliss, then why don't I always experience bliss?
Bliss is not an experience, it is your essence
Bliss is me
There is always bliss
Activities such as happiness and sadness come and go
Belief - Bliss is a pleasant experience or a state of the mind

#### 11 - Why is knowledge not permanent? Why doesn't the mind become stable on its own?
It will not take effort for a man to become a man
Ignorance, doubt, distrust, superstition
No path, knowledge is not the life goal, no Guru
Impurities, suppressed desires, disorders

#### 12 - All is me, this is true love, then why is there only hatred in everyone, why is there no love in the world? If all are one, how is everyone's behavior different?
Behavior or impression are of the body-mind machine
I have no qualities
Love is not a feeling or conduct, it is my essence
People are ignorant
Belief - Essential nature has impressions, qualities or conduct

#### 13 - I am neither able to do anything nor do I feel any happiness or sorrow, so am I lifeless?
Life is due to me only
The bodymind is inert, I am conscious
The liveliness is due to being a witness, not due to actions or tendencies
Belief - Life means actions or feelings etc.

#### 14 - What should I do after self-realization?
I am not the doer, I am the observer
Whatever the body-mind does will happen
That which is necessary or practical and natural
Guru's command
Belief - After knowledge, I have to do specific actions, or change my behavior

#### 15 - Who is my creator?
I am uncreated
Creation can be of objects, which is just a change of name and form
Creation means change, I am permanent
Matter, change and form are necessary for creation
Existence = experience + experiencer, experiencer is not created by experience, experiencer is one
Belief - I am an object or a special experience

#### 16 - Neither am I a living being nor is this my life, then what is the meaning of my being alive?

Belief - Witness has some use, purpose or meaning

#### 17 - Will I forget self-realization after death?
Not my death
I do not have memory
Even if a clay pot breaks, it is clay

Not necessary
By the practice of witnessing
If I am a man, how can I remember, how can I remain a man?
Not effort or action, love and interest
Not a method, proof

There will be no miracle

## Questions on Illusion
#### 1 - Which experience is true and when and how will it happen?
None
Whatever is changeable is experience and that is false
All experiences are created by the mind and generated by the senses

The creature is also false
The body is an object, is an experience
Belief - One object is false, the other is not

#### 4 - Experiences change, but I remember what it was, so whatever it was at that time was true.
Memory is also false
A shadow of false
Double illusion
Anything can be remembered

An event, 
Change of dream

#### 9 - Objects change, yet they exist. How can they be false just by being temporary?
Objects are experiences, they are just appearances
It is an illusion, even if they do not change
Like the bee
The intellect imagines the object (name)
If it changes sooner or later, the intellect calls the object false

Never
Death is also false, birth is also false

There are only two categories - experience and the experiencer
This is necessary
Ultimately, counting is not possible, it is zero

Form means limitedness
Form is not the truth, it is not taken
One form is limited, but there are infinite forms
Belief - Infinity has changed into smaller forms

#### 3 - Is it not arrogance to call oneself ultimate?
Oneness means not having an ego, becoming complete
The ignorant considers himself and others as body
Calling oneself a human, or considering oneself different from one is arrogance, ego

There is no action, no actor
Whatever is necessary
Whatever one likes, according to one's own will
Simple, beautiful, truthful, ordinary life
