*absolutely* True A perfect definition of my so beloved swami sarwapriyanand ji mahaaraaj

@@ajittrivedi7487 totally agree

I agree wholeheartedly. Swami is in the same exalted category with Allan Watts (another extraordinary speaker)!

I have achieved Divyanand heari ng Pujya swamiji's Prawchahan. But I'll be more happy to hear t in Hindi.So much respect to Swamiji.

A spiritual experience is one thing, the theological framework that we use to contextualize it is quite another. The core of all spiritual epistemology is a kind of 'cleansing', in Christianity from sin, in Buddhism and Hinduism from karma/impressions. This cleansing should make sure that we learn to discern real knowledge and insight from those forces within that can hinder the inquiry (karma, sin, desires, bias, etc.). By being free of those, we know that the knowledge and insight we gained isn't informed by our biases, wishful thinking, intellectualization, etc. Sometimes, experience and context happen at the same time, that is the gained insight IS part of the experience, not a posthoc rationalization. The insight/knowledge is usually non-verbal, non-visual, just a whole lot of information contained in one second, which takes a second to understand and sink in, but a long time to explain and put into words. That kind of knowledge transcends known epistemology, and it is by nature something that cannot be known unless by Grace, as a kind of revelation, a gift that cannot be grasped by the usual trajectory of human inquiry (bottom to top) but only by enlightenment, from above, as a gift of Grace (Grace exclusively descends, so the trajectory of that information is always top-to-bottom). I had this experience, and the insight was clear: Man is not God. Man cannot embody God. The human body cannot do this, it wasn't made to do this, this would absolutely, 100% kill it. There was one, and only one body that could embody God, and that is the body of Christ, the son of God. Our bodies cannot do this. The body of Christ is a metaphysical mystery, one of a kind, it is the only body that can contain within itself infinity, eternity. Every other body would be killed. We as humans, bound by flesh, come to infinity only through Christ, whom God made only so that this communion between man and God would be metaphysically possible so that we can commune with God in flesh, while the body of Christ, still a body, still in Heaven, can soak the impact of the clash between the physical, bound man and the uncreated, boundless, Father. God isn't a force, it's not 'all that is, it's not some form of energy, He is A PERSON. Think of it as - infinity as a PERSON. This is how He introduced himself to me, this is how I know Him. If you are really interested in psychonautics - read the early church fathers, far superior psychonauts, and theological minds than any Buddhist and Hindu monks. The Orthodox theology is so deeply seeped in mysticism, in my opinion much more mature. Surrender and opening up are very important and vulnerable movements of the soul, and if you do it in an unsafe environment it is very dangerous. I know that now.

Yeah

You did this today because I listened yesterday.

We are and all is what your Profile picture says.

can you give an example of an 'eternal cause'?

True! The video is an inverted mirror image. Even the flip chart seems to be written from right to left.

“Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists. Herein lies the peace of God” -A course in miracles I love that everyday I awaken my true self guides me. I have learnt over the years that no matter where you look the teaching is always the same .... only the teacher “changes” or is the same in different form.... when you can hear what is being said rather than just listening to what is being or determining value as to who is doing the speaking I realise that the “other” has always been me in different forms or versions of god.

True
