Guest guest Posted July 23, 2003 Report Share Posted July 23, 2003 Its mouth is closed. Within its cavety is seated a heavy darkness, filled with all desires; all the great nerves are centred there; the home it is of breath, mind, light of Knowledge. The Lord whose home is the interior of the Heart-Lotus is extolled as Lord of the Cave. If by force of practice the feeling "I am He, I am the Lord of the Cave" becomes firmly established, as firmly as your present notion that you are the Ego is established in the body, and thus you stand forth as the Lord of the Cave, the illusion that you are the perishable body will vanish like darkness before the rising Sun. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ by Swaminathan ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It is inverted, and in it there is a tiny orifice wherein is firmly seated along with latent tendencies etc. an immense darkness. Thereon the entire nervous system has its support. It is the seat of the vital forces, the mind, and the light of consciousness. That Divinity which shines as the 'I' in the cavity of the Heart- lotus is adored as the Lord Guhesa. When, through intensive practice, the bhavana 'He am I', that is 'That Guhesa am I', is as firmly established as the 'I'-notion deep-rooted in your body, and when you abide ever as the Divinity itself, It shines forth, whereupon ignorance, that is the notion 'I-am-the-perishable-body', is dispelled like darkness before the rising sun. ~~~~~~~~~ by Osborne ~~~~~~~~~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
