Guest guest Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 Dear Friends, Too much complexity of thought takes us away from the Self. Self is the ultimate simplicity. It is only the Self, the very core of our existence, as the eternal presence that lights up our individual presence. The nature of Presence is always the same. That is why Advaita says that Jiva and Brahman are identical. Same Self, same Presence. What is the power of Nirvikalpa Samadhi? To simply lay bare the Identity that we always are, this Identity that the ancient sages referred to as Sat-Chit-Ananda. Even now, in this very moment, in our fragile human existence, the fundamental consciousness and being animates our life. We miss it because it is too obvious. It is so abundant, our own being, that we miss it and seek the truth and attach glamor to it. The subtlety and beauty of being lies in its very simplicity. An unripe mind does not feel satisfied with this. Yet, it is this simplicity of being-consciousness that Sages have grasped and thus feel content. Namaste and love to all Harsha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
