Guest guest Posted April 12, 2003 Report Share Posted April 12, 2003 Ben, If you are in the presence, visible or invisible, of a Self-realized being, and if you are tuned into to your heart, you will feel the powerful peace and grace of their presence, your mind will be silenced, humbled and you will feel tremendous respect. Gentleness, pure compassion, and light shines from their eyes. There will be no question as the experience is direct and unmistakable. Their heart is boundless, so you will feel that you have entered the space of a great heart. Your heart may resonate "I" - "I". They will not ask for anything or claim any specialness. They only give, but there is no sense of giving. The love and radiance in them is just overflowing. There's no one left, as a person. An impersonal, boundless love and light shine wherever their gaze falls. You cannot go to find them. They will appear, when your heart and mind are pure enough.

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2003 Report Share Posted April 12, 2003 A quote from Robert Adams on no-mind and self-realization--- "The no-mind state is where you come from practicing to the place in the Silence where there are no thoughts to bother you any longer. You get there through Self-inquiry. That's the fastest way. But that's not Self-realization. Self-realization is when the mind is pulled into the spiritual Heart. Liberation, moksha, Self-realization is when the mind that's left over in the Silence is pulled completely into the spiritual Heart. At that time the whole mind, the I, dissolves completely and you are free." From "Silence of the Heart, by Robert Adams, p. 54 Attachment: (image/jpeg) Fiesta Bkgrd.jpg [not stored] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
