Some spiritual insights
The egoist needs to recognize the limitations of the
‘I’ consciousness and look beyond it, by starting to embrace the ‘we’, then the
‘many’ and finally the ‘all’.
We need to live right, to do what needs to be done
when it needs to be done; to respect all life; to share our fortune with those
in need, to keep life simple and to let Spirit freely express.
The yogi emphasizes the inner perception of God through
meditation.
“Man must become internalized in soul conscious,
transforming his little ego into the divine Self, the Soul.”
Paramahansa Yogananda
Internalize awareness
Once the mind is internalized and withdrawn from its
identification with the world and with the body, the inner light comes into
clear and steady focus. The inner sound becomes all absorbing. AUM fills the
brain, its vibration moves down the spine, bursting open the door of the
heart’s feeling, then flowing out into the body. The whole body vibrates with
the sound of Aum.
Gradually with ever deeper meditation the
consciousness expands with the sound of Aum, moving beyond the confines of the
body into infinity. Then we realize our oneness with the all existence as Aum,
the cosmic vibration.
Aum amen is the aspect of the Christian Trinity
which is known as the Holy Ghost, the comforter or word of God.
By still deeper meditation, one expands his
awareness in Christ Consciousness which underlies the manifest universe.
By still deeper meditation, one goes beyond creation
and units his consciousness with that of the Father, in yogic terms, with
Satchidananda, the ever Existing, and ever new Conscious Bliss.
Know you not that you are the temple of God, and
that the Spirit of God dwells in you?
1 Corinthians 3:`16 KJV 2000
Here we realize, that we are not mere human beings
aspiring to Divine status, but that we are spiritual beings temporarily
involved in realm of nature.
