Is it necessary for one who longs for
release to enquire into the nature
of categories [‘tattvas’]?

“Just as one who wants to throw away
garbage has no need to analyse it and
see what it is, so one who wants to know
the Self has no need to count the number
of categories or enquire into their
characteristics; what he has to do is
to reject altogether the categories
that hide the Self. The world
should be considered
like a dream.”

Shri Ramana Maharshi
