Guest guest Posted March 15, 2000 Report Share Posted March 15, 2000 Hi Tony and others, Thank you very much for your clear and to me relatively easy to understand description of why and how purification should be done. When I think about it, I have come across similar purification / sadhana systems and this was not so different from the other Hindu systems I have read about. Still, thank you again for the description. I found the delineations of the different sheaths very interesting. As well as these quotes: On Tue, 14 Mar 2000 14:01:06 Tony O'Clery wrote: > (When a stage is reached that one feels deeply >that whatever is being done is happening and one has >not got anything to do with it, then it becomes such a >deep conviction that whatever is happening is not >happening really; And that whatever seems to be >happening is also an illusion.) Sri Nisagardatta >Maharaj. Thank you for this quote. Reading such quotes, along with stories such as Bernadette Roberts' and contemplating it it on my own makes me more and more see the value of them. > We move from thinking we are our own thought, >to realising we are God's thought and eventually we >realise there was no thought at all. This I believe is >the end result of the teachings. I do agree with you on this. Many ppl from different traditions mention this. >Human Beings are like a flower,a flower bursts into >creation and it gets to a certain point,at the end of >the day when it closes its petals and it goes back in >again.Human Beings are the same,not every flower >bursts into creation and comes back in at the same >time.Some close earlier some close later >These are exracts from a talk I gave. They were lucid and interesting. Thank you very much. Yes, I do see the allegory in the flowers, as well as the time difference in them. ) Love, Amanda.
