I also have been watching this discussion, and it just reinforces various positions in my own mind. First of all one cannot experience the Self and be realised, for who is it that experiences the Self? One can experience the Self in lower samadhis but that is all. One is experiencing the energy of the Sakti until one becomes the Sakti(Saguna) and Nirguna Brahman simultaneously. At this point it is all illusion and never ever happened. Whilst one is connected by a body it is an appearance only....Ajativada. All the other machinations and worshippings, puja etc are all in the cause of concentration only. We do all these things to realise we do nothing at all...Tony. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
