Guest guest Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 From Gems from Bhagavan IX. HEART P.40-1 " I have been saying all along that the Heart Centre is on the right side of the chest, even when learned men differed from me. I speak from experience. I knew it during my trances [samadhis]. Again during the incident recorded in Self Realisation [his biography], I had a very clear vision and experience. All of a sudden a light came from one side erasing the world vision in its course until it spread all around and cut out completely the vision of the world. I felt that the heart on the left had stopped and the body became blue and inert. Vasudeva Sastri embraced the body and wept over my death. But I could not speak. All the time I was feeling that the Heart Centre on the right was working as well ever. This state lasted 15 to 20 minutes. Then suddenly something shot out from the right to the left like a rocket bursting into the sky. The blood resumed circulation and the normal condition of the body was restored.

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 Just a wild thought .. it could be that our Astral Body has the heart on the right ? The less we identify with our gross physical body .. the more we may feel our weightless astral body ? Of course .. i could be totally off the mark !

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 The path is a long one .. perhaps the other schools of thought may ultimately lead to Advaita ! Many a times we need to learn the HARD way !

I like your metaphor. Here are some more:- Neo Advaita gives you at a cost- mind you- there's no such thing as a free satsang. The icing without the cake. The cart before the horse. A place for long term parking. But let it be said that attractive personalities give some of the basic concepts of Advaita as an introduction for the more mature seekers to move on, hopefully to Ramana. Neo Advaitin teachers are the lazy westerners stepping stones to the razor's edge.
