19. CARPENTER’S HINDU WORLDVIEW ON NATURE
The Universal Consciousness
 nature of UC

‘At rest everywhere’ ‘Indifference’ Equality’
[Tilleinathan Swami]
 Not in the form of Thought
 It touches, sees, hears and is all those things which it
perceives- without motion, without change, without effort,
without distinction of subject and object, but with a vast
and incredible joy.

Nature and Universal Consciousness – You are not
to differentiate yourself from Nature – speak of
external world as ‘I’. Non-differentiation is the final
deliverance
 Development of Universal Consciousness – Supress
seat of primary Consciousness – Be with Nature

