The sukta vividly describes the experience of a meditator. Some of the utterances match with what Shri Ramana Maharshi taught. prahlika_300.ps.gz so called Pravahlika sukta, which describes the activity of mind, jeeva or Durga (as the female aspect of the Ultimate Reality). The word used for these is kumari (not kumarii). These sukta very clearly show that meditation practice preceeded RigVeda and was matured by the time RigVeda was composed. These suktas has interpretation in terms of Advaita also, of course. I hope some of you may find these useful. -- Himanshu --------------8E996000E126C52AA87B39E2 Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML> Dear List members, <BR>I have put two new papers as follows on our web site : <B>ddit.ernet.in</B> <BR>They are available via anonymous FTP under the directory <B>pub/hbdave/papers</B> <PRE>The papers and files are :</PRE> <PRE>etasha_300.ps.gz Etasha's Prattle (aitashapralapa.h) this is one</PRE> <PRE> &nb\ sp; of the so called Khila sukta in RigVeda, which may be</PRE> <PRE> &nb\ sp; of interest to some members of this List.
