Mahakala: “On one hand there is the Saguna Brahman, the samsara,
which is the infinity of forms, endless. On the other, the Nirguna Brahman,
which is formless infinity, absolutely no form, zero as far as form is
concerned. Between these two, connecting them together is Mahakala. He is the
fulcrum, the tangent between Infinity and Zero.
Smarahara: “In Sanskrit, the
word for memory and the word for the God of lust is the same: Smara. Desire is
the cause of all karma, and when desire is destroyed memory too will go, and
you will be free. That is why Losd Shiva is called Smarahara (meaning Destroyer of Lust as well as
Destroyer of Memory.) Sma in grammar means “past”. Memory is the only past. Sma-rahara is He who transforms you from present
tense to past tense. He who kills you. Sma-shan is the place where you go from present
to past, where you are transformed from existence into a memory.”
Kita bramari nyaya- the Law
of Caterpillar and Butterfly: whatever you concentrate on you will eventually
become.
Dhuni- sadhu’s fire
“Kamaturnam
na bhayam na lajja”: fear and shame do not exist for those afflicted with the
disease of desire.
The
expression of Shakti in the physical body is Prana, the life force, the power which keeps body, mind and spirit
functioning together as a living unit.
Third Eye
“My forehead aches a lot while meditating. It’s
uncontrollable”.
“Why is there creation? Because of friction. Without
friction there is no creation. And wherever there is friction, there is fire.
Can you produce fire without friction? No. Unless you take it directly from the
sun, using a magnifying glass for instance.”
"can you control creation? Art is my supreme creative expression. Free".
‘Where even ravi (the sun) cannot reach, there
will go a kavi (poet). But that does not go far enough. I say, ‘where even a
kavi cannot reach, there will go an anubhavi (experiencer).”
Two souls merge into one another, can
anyone describe it?
