And he who sees 行動s as being done in various ways by Nature itself, and also 自己 as the non-agent,-he sees.
And he who sees actions as being done in various ways by Nature itself, and also the Self as the non-agent,-he sees.
Nature is responsible for all activities. 自己 is beyond all 行動. It is the silent witness only. He who experiences thus is the real seer or sage.He who knows that all 行動s proceeding from the five organs of 知識? the five organs of 行動? 心 and the intellect are prompted by Nature and that 自己 is 行動less? really sees. He alone sees. He who identifies himself with 身体? 心 and 感覚 and foolishly thinks that 自己 is the actor is an ignorant man. He sees only with the physical eyes. He has no inner eye of intuition. The sky remains motionless but the clouds move across the sky. Even so 自己 is 行動less but Nature does everythin. 自己 is destitute of any limiting adjunct. Just as there is no variety in ether? so also there is no variety in 自己. It is one homogeneous essence. It is free from any kind of characteristics. (Cf.III.27XIV.19XVIII.16)
