About this listen
Atma Bodha, Verse 5: For mokṣa, only vrtti-vyapti occurs (not phala-vyapti) because Awareness is already present. The mind creates akhanada-akara-vrtti (thought that removes all wrong notions about Self) without producing a mental image of Ātmā. Once this vrtti removes ignorance completely, it too dissolves – like soapnut powder settling with dirt after cleaning water.
Atma Bodha, Verse 6: The world (saṃsāra) is like a dream – filled with rāga-dveṣa (likes-dislikes) and appearing real while being experienced, but its unreality is recognized upon awakening. This introduces the satya-mithyā prakriya (teaching of real-dependent existence), where reality has three levels: satya (independently existing), mithyā (dependent existence), and tuccham (completely unreal). The world exists at two levels: vyavaharika (empirical reality, like pot-clay) and pratibhasika (subjective reality, like dreams). Both are mithyā – depending on a higher reality for their existence.
