Paul Brunton Philosophic Foundation homepage > Notebooks of Paul Brunton



Although we live in a world that is basically unreal--if we define reality as that which never changes, which ever was, is, and will be--we have to live in this world as if it were real, substantially real. We are compelled to do so, because we find ourselves here and we have to be active here. What it amounts to is that the maya of the Indians has to be treated as if it were Brahman, but we can only do so safely if we know the Truth.
