Namaste
There is a process after Realization where the journey has just begun to it's new phase of Shifting - Settling - Pulling up - pulling out and cauterizing the remaining seeds that may once again take root and grow to occlude the fullness of Realization. The first falling away or glimpse is not the end - it's just the start. What is the path from that point on ? Staying steady - continuing to be vigilant - allowing the roots to be fully cut. Does mind continue to revolve and spin after Realization ? The mind is like a machine that has been turning and revolving for quite sometime and it may have some subsequent motion for a time after Realization. This is the time where one must be Most Diligent to not fuel the fires of mind. Mind must eventually Slow and Still into that Ever Present Being for Realization to be fully present. The mind Does fall away when One remains Immersed in the Unchanging Reality. Thoughts are the realm of the transient and changing projection of the dream. Ramana sat immersed in the Quietude of Stilled Awareness of that Ever Present Absolute, as there is nothing that the world holds that can overshadow the Absolutes Presence of Reality. When mind is divided it may bounce back and forth for a time UNTIL the Quietude and Stillness of Presence usurps the throne of the delusion of ego as being primary reality. Until this takes place there is a shifting back and forth from witness state to Being. The pull of duality is strong and it's spell is eventually broken. When all has fallen away the mind slows and the thoughts dissolve. At most some stray and random flotsum may appear on occasion but that is the exception rather than the rule. It's just another dream within a dream and nothing more. There are shifts that occur as settling takes place and the last of the threads or potential threads that create and sustain the ego illusion are cut and cauterized. Its not over until the mind has Stilled and died into the Reality versus still chasing and being enamored of the dream. OM Shanti
