Guest guest Posted June 2, 2005 Report Share Posted June 2, 2005 Thanks Michael, That was a beautiful letter and a response from Ramanaashram. Hope all is well. Harsha > > michael bindel <michael_bindel > 2005/06/01 Wed AM 01:24:57 EDT > , > THE FORMLESS REALITY IS OUR TRUE SELF > Most sincere sadhakas who strive throughout their lives for perfection and have experiences of it, such as you did, or perhaps experience it frequently, can in their last earthly moments enter into that experience and attain liberation at the time of death. This is called videhamukti. Jivanmuktas are the living-liberated. Bhagavan was a Jivanmukta. This is very rare. > > There may be some exceptional souls who are Jivanmuktas living in India and other lands. If it is our destiny to meet them, we will. Only a true Jivanmukta can recognize another Jivanmukta. > > "Is the regular experience of this state possible?" Yes, it is possible. It is our final destination. The saints and sages of all times have only been speaking of this. > > If you visit the India Ashram you will not be disappointed. The Maharshi's presence and the powerful presence of the holy Arunachala Hill can be experienced in Tiruvannamalai. Your experience of the Self will be intensified and stabilized more easily there. Sri Bhagavan's physical absence has not diminished his influence. Please go and see for yourself. > > This Formless Reality is our true Self. The body, mind and world are simply thoughts. To abide in the Formless Reality and know we are 'That,' is the purpose of life. Please forget all else and abide in 'That' alone. Only then will you have done what needs to be done and will be a beacon light unto the world - Editor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 2, 2005 Report Share Posted June 2, 2005 Dear Harsha thank you for this message of love and understanding! Today first thing at the computer i reread the message i sent and the last part "got me" its IT nothing else to be stated - "just" going on trying living it moment to moment..... Hope all is well - a touching expression i felt its sincerety these are - at least for michael and his small family - a incredible demanding "time" as michael excepts everything what he encounters as GDS WILL and with his undestroyable belief that this is always whats necessary for him - its "just" his Sadhana better i cannot express my answer to your loving question hoping my answer is "understandable" in times where michael feels nearly everything seems to be "ununderstandable" without our deep belief...... all the best to all of you in deep love in GD michael harsha (AT) cox (DOT) net wrote: Thanks Michael,That was a beautiful letter and a response from Ramanaashram.Hope all is well.Harsha> > This Formless Reality is our true Self.
