Profound explanation 🙏 short of words to express gratitude 🙏

[prabinbardoloi]

O revered one! I have been travelling with you for some time. Taking the cue from you, I have suddenly took bliss itself to meditate upon! I feel so good ( state of the mind of course) like being in the bliss truly! When I meditate upon the Self it is always the darkness or the blankness I abide in for few minutes. But now I can continue to be in this blissful state much longer and it even lingers when I open my eyes! Feeling much closer to the four A’s you mentioned in referring to Swami Vivekananda’s advice to Ramaswami.🙏

47:03 Verse 23

taṁ vidyād = yoga which has been taught now (knowledge of Self realisation)

duḥkha-sanyoga-viyogaṁ yoga = disunion from the union with pain (separates one from pain/sorrows)

55:51 niśhchayena:

1. All this yoga practices are difficult/ advait vedanta too is difficult then? Just believe it that I am an immortal awareness. I am Brahman. There are arguments to show that everything else is appearance in Brahman. By Ashtavakra

2. yoktavyo yogo ’nirviṇṇa-chetasā: If make-belief doesn't work, then try again. Hold onto it. 1000 times defeated try '1001th' time. Practice it. You have the power to try it every second, if one second it doesn't work, doesn't matter. In the next second you have the power again to make a choice. So hold onto it.
