Emptiness which is conceptually liable to be mistaken for sheer nothingness is in fact the reservoir of infinite possibilities.
— D.T. Suzuki We join spokes together in a wheel, But it is the center hole That makes the wagon move. We shape clay into a pot, But it is the emptiness inside That holds whatever we want. We hammer wood for a house, But it is the inner space That makes it livable. We work with being, But non-being is what we use.
He sang the name of Vishnu and the birth
And joy and passion of the mystic world,
And how the stars were made and life began
And the mute regions stirred with the throb of a Soul.
My guru told me, "Trust me, I tell you: you are Divine. Take it as the absolute truth. Your joy is divine, your suffering is divine too. All comes from God. Remember it always. You are God, your will alone is done."
If you have regard for me, remember my words. The knowledge "I Am” is the greatest God, the Guru; be one with that, be intimate with it. That itself will bless you with all the knowledge relevant for you and in the proliferation of that knowledge it will lead you to the state which is eternal.“
“ OM Lead me from falsehood to truth, from darkness to light, from death to immortality.” Though One, Brahman is the cause of the many. Brahman is the unborn (aja) in whom all existing things abide. The One manifests as the many, the formless putting on forms. (Rig Veda)
People think that the world itself is overflowing with beauty,
but they forget that they are its cause.
ONLY AT THE VERY END of the Bhagavad Gita, after exhausting a very detailed advice to Arjuna, regarding JANA YOGA (Sankhya Yoga), KARMA YOGA ( Niskama Karma), RAJA YOGA ( Paranayama and other exercises), Lord Krishna taught the easiest of ALL FOUR YOGAS>>> which is BHAKTI YOGA ( Yoga of devotion).
Lord Krishna said:
“ Arjuna, abandon all Dharma (duties) and just surrender unto me (the will of God). I shall deliver you from all bonds of Karma. Do not fear.”
I have no scruple of change, nor fear of death, Nor was I ever born, Nor had I parents. I am Existence Absolute, Knowledge Absolute, Bliss Absolute, I am That, I am That,I cause no misery, nor am I miserable; I have no enemy, nor am I enemy. I am Existence Absolute, Knowledge Absolute, Bliss Absolute, I am That, I am That,I am without form, without limit, Beyond space, beyond time, I am in everything, everything is in me. I am the bliss of the universe, Everywhere am I. I am Existence Absolute, Knowledge Absolute, Bliss Absolute, I am That, I am That,I am without body or change of the body, I am neither senses, nor object of the senses, I am Existence Absolute, Knowledge Absolute, Bliss Absolute, I am That, I am That,I am neither sin, nor virtue, Nor temple, nor worship Nor pilgrimage, nor books. I am Existence Absolute, Knowledge Absolute, Bliss Absolute, I am That, I am That,
Science of nature has one goal:
To find both manyness and whole.
Nothing ‘inside’ or 'Out There,’
The 'outer’ world is all 'In Here.’
This mystery grasp without delay,
This secret always on display.
The true illusion celebrate,
Be joyful in the serious game!
No living thing lives separate:
One and Many are the same.
