Small Dosages of Truth and Wisdom

[Pheena]

Devotion following union

That ... contemplation which is practiced on the highest Reality over and over again is... japa...

(p. 133, verse 145)

Unswerving buddhi without any image or support constitutes meditation.

(p. 134, verse 146)

Worship ... consists in setting one's heart on that highest ether of consciousnes which is above all thought-constructs. It really means dissolution of self with perfect ardour (in the Supreme Consciousness known as Bhairava).

(p. 135, verse 147)

When in the fire of Supreme Reality..., the five elements, the senses, the objects of the senses along with the mind (whose characteristic is dichotomizing thought-construct) are poured, with cetanâ as the ladle, then that is real oblation.

(p. 137, verse 149)

... sacrifice in this system simply means spiritual satisfaction characterized by bliss... the absorption into the shakti of Rudras is alone real ksetra (place of pilgrimage) inasmuch as this absorption destroys all sins...

(p. 138, verse 150)

The essence of Self consists universally in autonaomy, bliss, and consciousness. One's absorption in that essence is said to be (real) bath {of purification}

(p. 139, verse 152)

japa:

A mantra is usually one of God's names, or a brief statement or plea directed toward God; the act of repeating the mantra over and over again is japa. Hence japa is a continual invocation of God.
