Several years ago Swamiji laid out a plan for the next few years of study. Mandukya, Katha Upanishad and then one or two more? I'm still working through his Katha Upanishad talks from two years ago and I would love to know what his overall proposed study plan is. Is it written down, or commonly known? Realizing that I have been listening to Swamiji for seven years, what a blessing.

We are both enlightened in the opening that is ever-present awareness. That opening is free of the set apart violence called subject and object, in here versus out there, self against other, me against the world. ~ Ken Wilber

39:12 How can it be boring, just imagine seeing Sri Ramakrishna everywhere, once one of Sri Sri Ma’s devotees was about to swat an ant and she said what are you doing, I see none other than Sri Thakur crawling in that ant’s place. Imagine the bliss of seeing Thakur in inanimate objects as well, it’s one thing to see to see this world as a wax garden as Thakur used to allude to, but imagine seeing everything as Thakur himself, it’s the most interesting thing conceivable.
