Sri Ramana Maharshi
Q. Why is there imperfection in Perfection? That is, how did the Absolute become relative?
For whom is this relativity? For whom is this imperfection? The Absolute is not imperfect and cannot ask. The insentient cannot ask the question. Between the two something has risen up which raises these questions and which feels this doubt. Who is it? Is it the one who has now arisen? Or is it the one who is eternal?
Being perfect, why do you feel yourself imperfect? Such is the teaching of all religions. Whatever maybe the experiences, the experiencer is one and the same.
'I' is purana - perfection. There is no diversity in sleep. That indicates perfection.
What a beautiful answer. Thanks!
