DRINKING FROM THE SOURCE

In Uncategorized on January 29, 2012 at 3:13 pm

Meditation fulfills its promise when it becomes effortless.

When you have invested your heart and soul to your daily meditation practice, the time will arrive when you will simply sit and enjoy.  What required effort for so long now proceeds automatically.  The body releases tension, the need for busy-ness in the mind ceases.

When surrender reaches its full potential effort is no longer required to experience the divinity of the temple of the body/mind.  You sit and you drink from the Source.

You begin to recognize that the Source is the substance of your living experience.  Actions come not from thought, but from the wholeness that is the Source.  The instrument of the body/mind may reflect upon choices available to you, but from the Source comes the choosing.

Traditions call this meditative experience variously, samadhi, contemplative absorption, etc.

Trika tradition calls this stage of evolution, abiding in the Heart.

For Trika tantra, all knowledge, will and actions arrive from the divine Agent, and all beings are that Agent.  One universal subjectivity exists as the temple of the Universe.

When we drink from the Source, when we abide in the Heart, we recognize the essential belongingness that characterizes Our Universal Being.  All that can be recognized belongs.

Drink from the Source and you will see, hear and feel–you will recognize all the world as your own body.  Your skin will not end at your fingertips.  Your sight will not cease with the disappearance of the sun, you will hear with the ears of the Universe.  All that is, belongs to You.

I am all that I am.
