50. The impress on the consciousness springing from this perception supersedes all previous impressions. SUTRA FIFTY THE IMPRESS ON THE CONSCIOUSNESS SPRINGING FROM THIS PERCEPTION SUPERSEDES ALL PREVIOUS IMPRESSIONS
t peace, perception is unfailingly true. The poet, the wise philosopher and the saint not only reach a wide and luminous consciousness, but they gain certain knowledge of substantial reality. When we know, we know that we know. For we have come to the stage where we know things by being them, and nothing can be more true than being. We rest on the rock, and know it to be rock, rooted in the very heart of the world. 49. The object of this perception is other than what is learned from the sacred books, or by sound inference, since this perception is particular. The distinction is a luminous and inspiring one. The Scriptures teach general truths, concerning universal spiritual life and broad laws, and inference from their teaching is not less general. But the spiritual perception of the awakened Seer brings particular truth concerning his own particular life and needs, whether these be for himself or others. He receives defined, precise knowledge, exactly applying to what he has at heart.
