 106. Meditation

-
Such seer of "truth" (reality) also realize that
the entire "realm" of "change," even the body-mind and even the soul itself is pervaded,
each and all, by "that" which "exists externally." -2:17
- I am the "externally existing," "all-pervading,"
"transcendental divine person," THE TRUE SELF OF ALL. And my power of creation,
whereby individual beings are made to live and change, is "eternally active" as
the universal, all-pervading life-energy of nature. -8:31
- I am the "divine person," who pervades even
the "realm of nature," and within "whom" every individual being is arising. I am
realized by self-transcending love wherein every action is engaged as a form of
direct and present "communication" with "me." -8:22
- Men and women who are without "faith" in
this "way of communion" with "me" do not realize "me." Therefore, they remain associated
with the "changing realm of nature;" round of psychophysical the experience, and
the repetitive cycle of birth and change and death. -9:3
- Such fools already have "me" (the
"me" as consciousness prior to thought) in every form, but they do not notice "me."
They do not "realize me" in my transcendental nature, the "master" of everything
and the true "self" of all manifest beings. -9:11
- But if anyone will live in communion (at
one-ment, etc.) with "me," surrendering himself to "me" in love, then even if his
love is shown with nothing more than a leaf, or a flower, or a fruit, or water,
I will always accept the gift, and offer "myself" in return. -9:26
- I am situated in the heart of all beings
(as the heart consciousness in all beings). -15:15
- The "divine master" of all beings is literally
to be found at the "heart" (consciousness) wherein the soul observes the changes
of experience. Every experience rises and falls at the heart, spontaneously generated
by "eternal activity," the "universal life-energy." As if the soul were fastened
helplessly to a perpetual motion machine. -18:61
- Therefore, do not surrender the "heart" (consciousness)
to experience, as if you were in love with your own body-mind. Surrender the "heart"
to "me," and no other. I am the divine person, the "eternal master," the radiant
one who pervades the machine of nature as the blissful current of "life-energy;"
and who transcends all experience as "infinite consciousness," the true "self,"
if you will surrender your self consciousness to "My transcendental consciousness,"
and if you will yield your experience into "my all-pervading current of life," then
I will also become an "offering" to you. You will be given the "gift" of "perfect
peace" and an "eternal domain" for your heart (God-union, Satori, Nirvana).
- Now I have revealed "my mystery" to you,
consider it fully, and then choose what you will do. -18:63
