What is Brahm? A reality? No, Brahm is not real. Brahm is our utmost need. Brahm is our utmost need. Now call Brahm unreal at your own peril. All our life, all we deal with and encounter is destructibles, and all destructibles betray us at some point or the other.
That’s their name, that’s their nature; to come and go, to arrive and to perish. Now, at our own risk, can we deny something that never destructs? For if there is nothing that never destructs, then we are condemning ourselves to a hellish life, aren’t we?
