-
Awareness is the Self.
-
(Limited or contracted) knowledge is
bondage (contraction and limitation of awareness and
self).
-
That which arises from the source in the
form of fixed patterns of bodily activity, is also
bondage.
-
The basis of limited knowledge is the
misunderstood mother whose primordial inner sounds are
the source of all limiting alphabets, words and
languages.
-
Bhairava (the terrifying face of Shiva)
is a sudden uprising of the light of that divine
awareness (Shiva) that expands to fill and reveal the
entire universe.
-
By sustained awareness the collective
circle or circumference (Chakra) of manifesting powers
(Shaktis) whose activity manifests (Shaktis) the Divine
Awareness, the manifest universe disappears (in
awareness).
-
The three differentiated states of
waking, dreaming and deep sleep are all permeated by the
rapturous joy of (pure awareness) that is the Fourth (Turya).
-
Knowledge (of any external world) is the
waking state.
-
Dreaming is the independent and
autonomous manifestation of thought-constructs.
-
Lack of discriminatory awareness is the
deep sleep of delusion (Maya).
-
Enjoying the triad (of states) is the
heroism of the senses.
-
The stages/stations of yogic
accomplishment are a fascinating wonder.
-
The will-power (Iccha Shakti) of (the
yogi as Shiva in) communion with the divine mother (Uma)
is the splendour of Shiva as innocent, virginal play (Kumari).
-
All experienced phenomena, outer and
inner, are the body (of such a yogi).
-
Through the mind’s concentrated intent to
identify with the heart of universal awareness, all
phenomena, and even the void in which they appear, are
experienced as essentially permeated by that awareness.
-
Through mindfulness
of the supreme principle (identification with the
unbounded and Absolute Awareness that is Shiva) he
become released from the binding power of limited
identity and self-experience.
-
Unwavering
awareness is direct knowledge of Self – the self that
is awareness
and knows itself as identical with Shiva.
-
The bliss of
knowing oneself as that non-localised awareness which is
the ultimate knower - knowing itself as both a localised
self or subject and all its localised objects.
-
On being united
with its power of manifesting or ‘bodying’ (Shakti),
awareness enables all kinds of bodies to be created
according to desire.
-
Through the powers
of both bringing things together and distinguishing them
from one another, one has the power to bring them
together as things distinct but unseparated in space or
time.
-
Mastery of all
psychic powers of awareness (Siddhis) come from knowing
the entire circle or circumference (Chakra) of things as
expressions of the divine spiritual awareness.
