Guest guest Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 Deep sleep is often compared to Samadhi (spiritual trance), for, the senses and the mind are transcended and the ego is immersed in itself. It is in bliss, but, it is not aware of that bliss, for, wakefulness alone gives that knowledge. So, what can grant realization is the awareness of the waking stage and the bliss of the sleeping stage. Concentrate on the point, where one is having these two: that is the moment of victory. Mark the word 'Sama dhee' - it means balanced, unruffled intellect, and equanimity in the face of grief and joy, pain and pleasure, rejection or rejoicing. One who has attained that stage will be indifferent to fear or favour, to hate or love, to praise or blame. Where there is only One, how can even thought arise? That is the true Samadhi - the being, the awareness and the bliss.- Satya Sai Baba As written at PRASANTHI NILAYAM TODAY http://groups.msn.com/ Mail is the world's favourite email.
