It just happened and appeared distinctly the phenomenon rather the noumenon of observer, object being observed and the process of observing. While the mind was in its own process of thinking, suddenly it happened that “i” as something different from my mind (with its process of thinking), and this physical body. It looked like all these three are distinctly different. Thus it is clearly evident that indeed these are different and the so called “i” is identifying with these, which is termed as illusion.
While it is happening the intuition says that even this is an illusion, and, this process of happening is a part of neti doctrine and this is the stage as mentioned in the Mundaka Upanishad as “ekameva adviteeyam brahma”
After the enlightenment it just appears that everything what is happening is happening for a reason. Behind every happening there is a well planned and well determined process of happening. It is like behind every happening there is a thought process that has already happened and the effect of the thought process is happening in the now. Hence, it is becoming more and more evident that the whole happenings in the cosmos are only the effect of thoughts that came out from someone.
If everything is pre-determined and well determined, then what is free will? Is there something like that?
All these doubts are there only in the duality. In oneness there is no doubt, because there is no other one. There is only one "sarvam khalvidam brahma." The observer, the object being observed and the process of observing is all one. The questioner, question and the answer is one.
