Guest guest Posted June 12, 2005 Report Share Posted June 12, 2005 when you do sadhana to a certain degree of effectiveness, this can happen: you feel as if you are going insane. but no one knows it, except maybe you most loving friends. it is like a huge itch you are refusing to itch. it is like water boiling. then when it is over, you remain kind to others. it is very quiet. that is the magic of to do and to get. you are loosening from this world. this is tapas.

Guest guest Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 It is also like an abyss, walking into a dark cave, etc. Why would anyone do this, the mind says. It is like the mind goes crazy inside a big quiet space...but other parts are very very content. I think for me it really becomes apparent in my total loss of interest in worldly success even when it is sitting at my door. I am shaking my head saying, but this makes no sense, I have NO interest. What am I to do? Loving friends watch and wonder. Good thing they still love us.
