To look much at ego may again reflect
as
a reflection of ego.
Let this melt in latent heat of spiritual virtues
named as
discrimination,
renunciation,
restraint,
tranquility,
courage
and
intellect
similarly as an ice cube melts in open air on it’s own.
Any bird can fly high in the sky
as per strength of own matured,
experienced and mighty wings.
But there is always a difference
in flying
of
“Swan” and “Crow”.
Start moving
from circumference to center
and
better stop roaming upon circumference only.
To move along radius is the correct and shortest path
which reaches to center.

An egoless journey from circumference to center with getting ego gradually melted in latent heat of spiritual austerities helps while traversing upon the “Path of Self Realization”
“O SERVANT, where dost thou seek Me?
Lo! I am beside thee.
I am neither in temple nor in mosque: I am neither in Kaaba nor in Kailash:
Neither am I in rites and ceremonies, nor in Yoga and renunciation.
If thou art a true seeker, thou shalt at once see Me: thou shalt meet Me in a moment
of
time.
Kabîr says, “O Sadhu! God is the breath of all breath.”
“Do not go to the garden of flowers!
O Friend! go not there;
In your body is the garden of flowers.
Take your seat on the thousand petals of the lotus,
and
there gaze on the Infinite Beauty.”
“TELL me, Brother, how can I renounce Maya?
When I gave up the tying of ribbons, still I tied my garment about me:
When I gave up tying my garment, still I covered my body in its folds.
So, when I give up passion, I see that anger remains;
And when I renounce anger, greed is with me still;
And when greed is vanquished, pride and vainglory remain;
When the mind is detached and casts Maya away, still it clings to the letter.
Kabîr says, “Listen to me, dear Sadhu! the true path is rarely found.”
“O HOW may I ever express that secret word?
O how can I say He is not like this, and He is like that?
If I say that He is within me, the universe is ashamed:
If I say that He is without me, it is falsehood.
He makes the inner and the outer worlds to be indivisibly one;
The conscious and the unconscious, both are His footstools.
He is neither manifest nor hidden, He is neither revealed nor unrevealed:
There are no words to tell that which He is.”
“THE river and its waves are one surf:
where is the difference between the river and its waves?
When the wave rises, it is the water; and when it falls, it is the same water again.
Tell me, Sir, where is the distinction?
Because it has been named as wave, shall it no longer be considered as water?”
“To what shore would you cross, O my heart? there is no traveler before you,
there is no road:
Where is the movement, where is the rest, on that shore?
There is no water; no boat, no boatman, is there;
There is not so much as a rope to tow the boat, nor a man to draw it.
No earth, no sky, no time, no thing, is there: no shore, no ford!
There, there is neither body nor mind:
and
where is the place that shall still the thirst of the soul?
You shall find naught in that emptiness.
Be strong, and enter into your own body: for there your foothold is firm.
Consider it well, O my heart! go not elsewhere,
Kabîr says: “Put all imaginations away, and stand fast in that which you are.”
“THE shadows of evening fall thick and deep, and the darkness of love envelops the body and the mind.
Open the window to the west, and be lost in the sky of love;
Drink the sweet honey that steeps the petals of the lotus of the heart.
Receive the waves in your body: what splendour is in the region of the sea!
Hark! the sounds of conches and bells are rising.
Kabîr says: “O brother, behold! the Lord is in this vessel of my body.”
“The moon shines in my body, but my blind eyes cannot see it:
The moon is within me, and so is the sun.
The unstruck drum of Eternity is sounded within me; but my deaf ears cannot hear it.”
~ Revered Sant Kabir~

Mystical experiences of an accomplished master experienced from the “Path of Self Realization”
“Only he knows the bitterness of love
Who has deeply felt its pangs.
When you are in trouble
No one comes near you:
When fortune smiles.
All come to share the joy.
Love shows no external wound.
But the pain pervades every pore
Devotee Mira offers her body
As a sacrifice to Giridhara for ever.”
“With my tears,
I watered the creeper of love that I planted;
Now the creeper has grown spread all over,
and borne the fruit of bliss.
The churner of the milk churned with great love.
When I took out the butter,
no need to drink any buttermilk.
I came for the sake of love-devotion;
seeing the world, I wept. ”
~Revered Mirabai~

A seeker’s seeking experience while traversing upon the “Path of Self Realization”
The pain of wound
can
never be realized
till
not get self wounded…..!!!
Dimensionless state of Silence
is
attainment to repose
and
the everlasting, ultimate bliss.
That’s why sings Bhagavad Gita:
“Earnestly resigning all your deeds to me, finding shelter in me, and embracing the yog of knowledge, you should ever fix your mind on me”.
Seeker is counseled to sincerely yield all his actions-
whatever he is capable of doing-to God,
to rest in his mercy rather than depend upon his own prowess,
to find shelter in him,
to adopt the attitude of yog,
and
always bring his mind to bear on him.
Yog means completion,
unity,
that which brings griefs to an end
and
provides access to God.
Its mode, too, is a unity,
the exercise of yagya……….
which is
founded on restraint of the attacking impulses of the mind and the senses,
the regulation of the incoming and outgoing breath,
and on meditation.
Its outcome, also,
is
with the eternal God resulting
for
dimensionless state of Silence
which is attainment to repose
and
the everlasting, ultimate bliss.
**********************
How the pain of wound can be realized till not get self wounded and dimensionless state of Silence which is attainment to repose and the everlasting, ultimate bliss. if really not traversed upon the “Path of Self Realization”???
YOU ASK ME
who are you
and
with such a shaky existence
how can you fall in love?
How do I know who am I or where I am?
How could a simple wave locate itself
in an ocean?
You ask me what am I seeking above
and beyond the pure light
that I once was
and
why am I imprisoned in this cage named body
and yet I claim to be a free bird?
How do I know how I lost my way?
I know for sure I was all straight before I was seduced by love.
~Rumi~
