Sutra I. 40 Paramanu-parama-mahattvantah asya vasikarah
The deepening and extension of this accomplishment (vashikarah) will extend into and include the smallest and most infinitesimal atom (parama-anu) and also unto the whole of creation or the greater whole (mahattva-antah) knowing no bounds.
Commentary: Through the knowledge gained from meditation by knowing our own mind, the practitioner gets to know the true nature of all finite (anu) phenomenon from the most minute (anu) to the most large (mahattvanto) extending into the very limits (antah) of existence (parama). Here the instrument of seeing is being gradually perfected to the point that the lens no longer creates a distortion. Things then are perceived as they are by a mind that has reached lucidity through meditation, but at this stage the true nature of the mind is still not known, just the nature of "things". When they are known in the holographic sense -- in terms of the objectless, formless (nirguna) non-dual siva/sakti wholeness, then a freedom from their influence is established (vasikarah). Such extrinsic situations can no longer negatively influence the mind and thus nirbija samadhi will be near.
All objects are held together by energy fields. Even the physicists know that what we call the physical or solid world is really all moving/fluid being comprised of empty space, electrons, neutrons, protons, and such, all configured in specific energy patterns forming the characteristics of what we call elements, compounds, DNA, cells, tissues, organs, glands, nerves, brains, animals, people, and objects of perception -- all a product of millions of years of co-evolution emanating from Source. All of creation is moving/dancing and can only be fully related to as a whole -- in context of All Our Relations. A problem of cognitive dissonance and fractualization arises when the conditioned dualistic mind artificially attempts to freeze this process through conditioned thought patterns (vrtti), but through meditation this fascination with the physical is abandoned and eventually dislodged. We then become free from the illusion of materiality. Solid matter as apparent physical "objects" then becomes only a small minded and limited way of seeing things, identifying, and/or relating.
In meditation as the dualistic fixations with apparently separate objects fade, they are gradually replaced by the the universal vision which penetrates and unites the spaces between the smallest atom and the wholeness of the entire created universe all the way to Source. In short, through effective meditation practices all dualistic fixations of objective knowledge eventually become dislodged as clarified Heart Consciousness as universal non-dual awareness arises. First extrinsic or coarse perception is noticeably improved and one is able to separate the actual event or situation from any emotional/samskaric reaction to it. Later the samskaric seeds themselves are removed through continued practice.
This is another reference to the liberating power of remembering or affirming the Great Integrity in All Our Relations - The inherent implicate order of the All and Everything found in the Great Integrity and that One that is contained in everything. Such is the multidimensional non-dualistic holographic reference field that is indigenous/inherent, natural/unconditioned, unlimited/universal and not contrived or biased in anyway. That is at the same time a sutric reference to the profound experiential unity of the micro/macrocosm.
