Guest guest Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 Awake Yet drenched in the deep of sleep A soft liquid depth A pool of stillness consciousness-depth Why say "I am"? That is only froth on the surface Here in the deep sombre silence So quiet ................ Thank you for this post, which inspired the above poem. Bill - viorica weissman H_S Saturday, May 15, 2004 5:14 AM a glimpse of the real Self every day One early morning Sri Bhagavan explained how we have a glimpseof the real Self every day. Between sleep and waking there isa momentary twilight. The waking consciousness begins withthe "I" thought. Just before the up-surge of the "I" thought,there is a split second of undifferentiated, pure consciousness.First unconsciousness, then the light of pure consciousness,then the "I" thought with which the world-consciousness floods in,this is the order. The middle state is Self-awareness.We can sense it if we are sufficiently alert and watchful.................................................................................\taken fromSri Ramana ReminiscencesG.V.
