Self-images

 

 

The body is the result of prarabdha karma,

 

the fructified part of a vast store of accumulated (sanchita) karma.

 

So Hindus and Buddhists say the mind creates the body ;

 

it is natural that the mind then foolishly identifies with its creation.

 

 

 

As God's image becomes clearer and more powerful,

 

more of the divinity associated with It saturates the mind mirror.

 

Slowly God is the only thing in the mind,

 

wiping off everything else.

 

That is the state of God-realization.

 

 

(Swami Satyamayananda in May's 2003 issue of Prabuddha Bharata,

'Self-images.' )
