Guest guest Posted August 11, 2002 Report Share Posted August 11, 2002 Pure Being (Summa Irutthal) What our Master clearly teaches By way of great, good, powerful tapas Is only this and nothing more Be Still. Apart from this the mind has no Task to do or thought to think. The stillness shining as pure Being Is our true nature, the Self-state. Only through rare, strenuous tapas This "laziness" is attained. Praise those Abiding thus as paragons of virtue. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ from Sri Muruganar: The Garland of Guru's Sayings, v. 773, 774 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [The Tamil word summa means peaceful, natural Being, stillness.] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
