ºa state of deep absorption is quite common even among animals. In my book,

In that case, define "God" and the entity that is supposed to unite with it.

ºWhen my neighbor's dog is in heat, she can forget their nearest and

ºisn't much different from those musicians' behavior during their supposed

The dog in heat only thinks of "dearest" - that is what "heat" is about.

Humans in heat show more complicated rituals, that's the major difference.

ºI agree that it is a matter of perception. If you cannot perceive the

ºdifference between Mick Jagger and Sri Ramana during his "cave period",

ºwhat

ºcan I say?

 

If difference means so much to you, why Mick Jagger instead of Ravi Shankar?

 

 

Peace,

Jan

Just labels. Not different from other labels.

I don't fight - contrary to your "case" there is nothing to unite with

nor anything to be united with. No doubt there is even an appropriate

quote on that topic

 

Happy life-long uniting though - one label with another? )

What if a label resists?

All paths go somewhere. 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. Welcome all to a.
