The God of Death continued:
The sense Functions of the sense Organs are touch,smell,vision ,sound, taste . These sense Functions are subtler than the sense Organs themselves. The Mind is subtler than the sense Functions.The Intellect ( the discriminating or judgemental faculty ) is subtler than the Mind. The Unexpressed Reality/Unmanifest Reality is subtler than the Intellect.
God is subtler than the Unexpressed Reality.
Humans should try to merge their faculty of Speech into their Minds.They should merge their Minds into their Intellects.They Should merge their Intellects into God.
Arise,Awake,Go to those learned Sages who know this and learn from them the Knowledge of God.
God is indescribable, untouchable, formless,tasteless, odourless, inerodible, greater than the greatest and permanent.
God has made it difficult for humans to acquire this knowledge by making their sense Organs oriented outwards.Common people fail to orient their sense Organs inwards.It is an uncommon person who is successful in orienting his/her Organs inwards and realize God.
After the Self leaves the body, nothing worthwhile is left behind.
When people die,some Selves may take up new human bodies, some Selves may take up animal bodies or some plant bodies.
This is in accordance with the" Karma" of the previous births.
Nachiketa asks: How will I know that God has illumined my Intellect ? Does he/she/it illuminate at all ?
The Lord of Death replied: Yes. God illumines. The Lightning,the Moon , the Sun, the Stars do not illumine themselves.God illuminates them.
It is God's Law that is obeyed by the Sun when it warms the Earth.It is the Law of God which the Fire obeys when it burns.It is the law of the God when the Air blows this way or that way.
