Truth is found at the depth of your being, not the surface of your mind. Anything can be justified with the intellect.
As the clouds and fog clear away, the sun is more clearly seen. So too, as the emotions and mind settle down, Truth is more clearly seen.
So simple and so profound. What a great photo to support Brahmarshi’s point.
Especially on mornings when the sunrise looks like this photo (within 5 days ago) I have to pinch myself that I really live in such a beautiful piece of heaven. Then, after meditating in the deep dive for 6 weeks and sitting in front of Brahmarshi for his talks, I ask myself, “what if I had never come to know this Knowledge?” After being in the temple last night after Punditji performed 12 consecutive rudrabhishekams only to top it off with a puja and hymn to Shiva at 1:00 a.m., I floated home to count my blessings.
I love it. It is a perfect reminder. Thank you.
For so many years the debate has continued…(in a nutshell) is consciousness created by the brain or is it beyond. I have watched debates on TV and I have had them with friends. Although a strong intellect is a wonderful tool to possess,
it seems in many cases it could get in the way of truth. The greatly appreciated talk I had this morning with a staff member was about the sweet spot that is possible to consciously slip into (in a moment) that is separate from thought and action. I might not have the vocabulary to accurately describe how it feels however it is the only thing I truly know that is real. It is different than everything so I have no other reference and yet so true it does not need one.
It is so wonderful to have someone in this life that can accurately describe the un-describable.
Thank you Brahmarshi
Over the years, watching my perception become clearer and the fog dissipating from my conditioning (samscaras), this Deep Dive Meditation Retreat has brought me to a pinnacle beyond any prior understanding of the relative. I can feel an intense longing for the consciousness of reality and I’m certainly not referring to the relative existence, but where real love is the language understood and spoken. I see a purer step of how I can participate in that higher level of consciousness.
Your understanding of the Veda and how to teach it has brought me to a place where I am so filled with silence, peace, gratitude, and fulfillment. Now, integrating this level into my daily life is possible because of your commitment to building this divine Enlightened City. And Panditji’s divine Rudrabhishekams, midnight puja, and hymn to Shiva filled me with such beautiful energy I felt I remained in the Transcendent. There were no edges…….
Beautiful comments…. one and all.
So simply put, so profound! Love the picture, so great for the blog!
