Guest guest Posted April 13, 2002 Report Share Posted April 13, 2002 Jaya Guru Datta, Here is today's saying: “In the previous lessons, we understood that the body, the sense organs, the mind and the intellect are not 'I'. Shall we then say that Prana (life force) is 'I'? After all, the question about 'I' arises only if life (prana) is there. The sense organs, the mind and the intellect -- all these function only if there is Prana. Can we therefore conclude that the Prana is 'I'? No. Consider the state of deep sleep (sushupti). In that state, Prana is very much there. But there is no sensation. The thought of 'I' is not there too. We have just said that the Indriyas function where there is Prana. Does it not seem contradictory?"
