Beyond reason

“Neodämmerung” from Matrix Revolutions

• असतो मा सद् गमय ।
  तमसो मा ज्योतिर्गमय ।
  मृत्योर्माऽमृतं गमय ॥
  From the unreal (delusion) lead me to the real (truth).
  From the darkness lead me to the light.
  From death lead me to immortality. -- Brihad Aranyaka (1.3.28)



• विद्यां चाविद्यां च यस्तद्वेदोभयँ सह ।
  अविद्यया मृत्युं तीर्त्वा विद्ययाऽमृतमश्नुते ॥
  Pursuing both Vidya and Avidya, he overcomes death by transcending them -- Isha Upanishad (11)   .. (pursuing Vidya alone leads to pride/delusion)



• यस्मिन् द्यौः पृथिवी चान्तरिक्षमोतं ।
  मनः सह प्राणैश्च सर्वैः ।
  तमेवैकं जानथ आत्मानमन्या वाचो ।
  विमुञ्चथामृतस्यैष सेतुः ॥
  In him are woven the sky and the earth and all the regions of the air.
  And in him rest the mind and all the powers of life.
  Know him as the One and leave aside all other words.
  He is the bridge of immortality -- Mundaka Upanishad (2.2.5)



• इन्द्रियेभ्यः परं मनो मनसः सत्त्वमुत्तमम् ।
  सत्त्वादधि महानात्मा महतोऽव्यक्तमुत्तमम् ॥
  Beyond the senses is the mind, and beyond the mind is reason, its essence. Beyond reason is the Spirit in man, and beyond this is the Spirit of the Universe, the evolver of all. -- Katha Upanishad (6.7)



• यदा पञ्चावतिष्ठन्ते ज्ञानानि मनसा सह ।
  बुद्धिश्च न विचेष्टते तामाहुः परमां गतिम् ।
  भिद्यते हृदयग्रन्थिश्छिद्यन्ते सर्वसंशयाः ॥
  When the five senses and the mind are still. And reason itself rests in silence, then begins the Path supreme -- Katha Upanishad (6.10)



• भिद्यते हृदयग्रन्थिश्छिद्यन्ते सर्वसंशयाः ।
  क्षीयन्ते चास्य कर्माणि तस्मिन् दृष्टे परावरे ॥
  And when he is seen in his immanence and transcendence, then the ties that have bound the heart are unloosened. The doubts of the mind vanish, and the law of Karma works no more -- Mundaka Upanishad (2.2.8)

From the unreal (delusion) lead me to the real(truth) (2)
From the darkness lead me to the light
From death lead me to immortality.

He who knows both knowledge and action,
with action overcomes death
and with knowledge reaches immortality.

In him are woven the sky and the earth
and all the regions of the air,
and in him rest the mind
and all the powers of life.

Know him as the ONE
and leave aside all other words.
He is the bridge of immortality.

Beyond the senses is the mind,
and beyond the mind is reason, its essence.
Beyond reason is the Spirit in man,
and beyond this is the Spirit of the Universe,
the evolver of all.

When the five senses and the mind are still,
and reason itself rests in silence,
then begins the Path supreme.

So on and so forth
So on and so forth
So on and so forth

And when he is seen in his immanence and transcendence,
then the ties that have bound the heart are unloosenend,
the doubts of the mind vanish,
and the law of Karma works no more.
