Guest guest Posted March 31, 2001 Report Share Posted March 31, 2001 I want to thank you all for the beauty of your presence (at NDS and HS) and welcome the new members who have recently joined . Welcome back to Dharma , Lobster, and Joyce Short. is an eclectic Satsangha open to all religions and faiths and paths in the yogic and meditative traditions and those that lie outside such traditions. It is a spiritual fellowship that is nurtured in an environment of mutual respect, amity, and good will. The Sangha has the blessings of the Sage of Arunachala, Sri Ramana Maharshi, who guided me and by whose instruction and Grace I saw the Truth of the Heart as Pure Seeing, Pure Being, and the Emptiness that by its very Nature is always full, always full, and never overflowing, there being no boundaries to overflow past. For the last 24 years, other than Chitrabhanuji, who is also my friend, I have had no inclinations to visit any gurus or learn some special knowledge, etc. Sometimes when we look at the gurus and the wise men and the clever language games that are played by others, we see that many such people are struggling with their own issues, their own problems. It is enough if they can help themselves. On this path, the pathless path, one is essentially alone. Until One Realizes the Beauty and Wonder of this Alone-ness, the Wholeness of it, the All-Oneness of It, it is nice to be in the company of good people. Satsangha means the company of Truth, or the good people who have Known the Truth Directly. Satsangha can also be with good books. I loved those "Books of Secrets" that were flowing from Rajneesh (Osho later) in the 1970s for their humor, insight, brilliance, and outrageousness. For me ultimately, the "Talks" with Ramana Maharshi provided the Grace and served as a wonderful companion. Many people find Ramana's teaching repetitive and even boring. But It was the only thing that attracted me and what I stayed with always. Once you have looked into the Heart and found the Heart looking at you as You, One can never look away. One is the Heart! The Eye behind the I AM. As the spring begins, I wish you all well and may everyone find the spark of love that becomes the fire of devotion for the Lord of the Heart. The Upanishads beautifully declare, "Know That by which all else is known." Self Knowledge is the Only Knowing. Love to all Harsha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No path goes nowhere. Paths, places, sights, perceptions, and indeed all experiences arise from and exist in and subside back into the Space of Awareness. Like waves rising are not different than the ocean, all things arising from Awareness are of the nature of Awareness. Awareness does not come and go but is always Present. It is Home. Home is where the Heart Is. Jnanis know the Heart to be the Finality of Eternal Being. A true devotee relishes in the Truth of Self-Knowledge, spontaneously arising from within into It Self.
