So you see that you have a headache. For example, And the mind says okay because I did something yesterday that's why I have a headache. So we are searching the cause of the headache. So the cause is something I did yesterday and we stopped there. So the journey of the Eastern wisdom says go on finding the ultimate cause. So it is the body first, The body, Head is the part of the body and when head is the part of the body then I am not the body so do I have a headache. So we go on searching through the knowledge where exactly, What is the ultimate cause of the pain and the suffering. So time comes we find the ultimate cause is the ignorance, Not knowing the reality. So when I don't know the reality then the sorrow continues, The suffering continues in our life. It's all a part of understanding, Knowledge, Knowledge. So that is why we always talk about the real self, The reality. That real self is the ultimate reality. It is pure consciousness. So my mind claimed that reality is something outside. The moment the mind claims the reality is something different than the real self we will continue to suffer and sorrow. So that is the entire journey of the Eastern wisdom. How are you Sarah? I don't see Sarah. Hi, I have my camera off. I hope that's okay. Okay, Okay. If you don't want to show yourself that is also okay. But keep listening. I love listening. I'm very thankful for these sessions. Listening is very important. But not only listening, After listening changing the mind is important. So this is all about the Eastern wisdom. So that listening takes place. Very good Ashok. I see you horizontally. It is good. You have reached to the highest state of meditation. Very good. There are rare people. You know in yoga we say, Oh you get lot of powers. So this is one of your powers. Ashok is also a technocrat like you Sam. So he is engineer. Yes now engineers can do anything you know in their lives. So there was where the Buddha was born. Buddha was born in Bihar, A native state of, My native state also, One of the 29 states in India, Like US. So there was another master Vajaspati Mishra. So he wanted to write a commentary on one of the most authentic text that I have not taken up yet. So he was so much focused and absorbed. Every day his wife used to bring him a tea, Lunch and the dinner, Used to wash it. He used to see that. You know you see that? The way you explain everything was visible you were on the cliff. But mountains and the peak is visible but still there is a expansiveness. Yes I was missing you David and Jerry. So you see that expansiveness. So that is how I'm explaining. So Vajaspati Mishra was one of the great masters who lived in 9th century, Almost 1200 years ago. So you know sometime it happens that you are absorbed in doing work and your honey says hey you want tea? Oh no not at this time. Let me complete this work. So the mind from 360 degrees totally absorbed, Not by an effort. So this Vajaspati Mishra, His wife's name was Bhamati. So he was writing a commentary on one of the great texts of yoga. So for seven years, It took him seven years to write a commentary and after seven years when the book was finished, Vajaspati Mishra asked his wife, Who are you? Because he was so much absorbed. Do you see that? You see the other side of the truth. When you see the relative truth, Where you have a label of honey, Husband, Wife, Etc. But he was so much absorbed that his mind reached to the highest state of consciousness. He said who are you? I'm your wife. I've been taking care of you for the last seven years. And he said sorry I am extremely sorry. I was totally absorbed. So he named the text in the name of his wife that is known as Bhamati. It is one of the great texts where he talks of ignorance. So this text, You know this text Ashtavakra Gita that we are taking up is a text, If I say so, It is meant for the higher level of seekers. What it means by the higher level of seekers? Your mind says I have a lot of problem give me meditation. So I give you a small mantra and I said you repeat it. You return to me. You say no it is helping me. I'm relaxed fairly. I practice it every day. That is it's a beginning. It's a beginning of your journey. You have yet to learn. And then your mind is constantly in doubt with a lot of conflict and the confusion. Mind is not mature enough to see the ultimate reality. The time comes when your mind is naturally focused on the ultimate reality that is the real self which is the pure consciousness. And you have already started living into that. That means you are the higher level of a seeker. Why? Why? Simple reason. When you are a higher level of a seeker then you only need a knowledge, Understanding, Awareness to enter into the state of meditation. You don't need to practice. So you see that we have many people they they have they argue meditation is a non-practice. Why you are practicing? It is effortless natural only for the higher level of the seekers not for the lower level of the seekers. Lower level of the seekers? Yes do karma yoga here is a mantra. Do lot of practices to purify the mind and to focus it. So now see there is another one of the beautiful verse what we are studying in the second chapter the seeker is narrating his experiences. He was the highest level of a seeker. He heard the master and the transformation started taking place while listening. That is the beauty. You see that the beauty of the Eastern wisdom. So what he says Now he is explaining his own experiences of meditation. What his experiences? This universe appears in me. Does this remote say that universe appears in me? Inert, Matter, Unconsciousness. I have defined couple of times what exactly is matter according to the Eastern wisdom. It does not know itself and it does not know others. Anything in the world including the body the mind, Intellect, Ego also they all come under the category of inert. Now I am pure consciousness. I know myself. I'm speaking at the same time I also know you all. Can I live into that state of awareness? What prevents me? Mind moves into the lower consciousness and when it moves into the lower consciousness we enter into ignorance. So that simple translation first. Oh he says wow the universe appears in me because I am aware of you so you appear in me. See that the universe appears in me conceived through ignorance. Just as how? So he gives three examples. You have seen that there is a silver that appears in the mother of pearl, A snake in the rope and the water in the Sunbeam. So the way I see the mirage means the water in a desert. The way I see the silver shining appears in a corn shell in an ocean looking from the far. The way I see the snake in the rope they do not exist. Same way the entire universe do not exist. They simply appear. The ultimate cause. That is my experience Oh master aho vikalpitam vishvam jnanatmai bhasate. Rupyam shukto phani rajyo vari surya karo yatha. So now see that if we have understood there is another verse we have already studied. His experience. He is narrating his experience just as waves foam and the bubbles are not different from water so all this which emanated from the oneself is no other than oneself. It is all demands and awareness. So that awareness dispels the ignorance and what is that ignorance? It is only because of ignorance I see you and me are different. There is a standpoint of the wave in an ocean. So when the wave looks at ocean, Wave looks at the water and the wave looks at the other wave. That is one standpoint of this knowledge. See that so the wave is looking at the wave means I am separate I am different from you. Different by color by shape by weight by height by long list. I enter into the confusion. What about this standpoint from an ocean? Come on wave you are part of me. Now you are an ocean. See that you are an ocean. You are looking at the wave. What we say we all are human beings. Don't fight. Don't enter into conflict. We all are human beings. From the standpoint of an ocean but the highest standpoint water. Remove the water where is an ocean? Remove the wave where is an ocean? Where is a wave? Where is an ocean? So the very existence is water. If there is no water there is no ocean there is no wave. Now place yourself that you are the water you are the existence. What appears outside is different it is not. Essentially it is water. This is what he explains. Can I have that experience? You know we were talking a lot of other experiences of vision and colors and beautiful experiences and especially in Kundalini we undergo variety of experiences. We forget. Do you know what we forget? We are an experiencer. We can never be an experience. The experiences constantly changes. The seer behind that experiences remains the same. So he explained the same thing that that is my experience just as a cloth is one thread the same this existence is woven from the being from the consciousness from the real self. You can also reflect on being and becoming. Being, Becoming, Being never changes. Becoming is constantly changing. So there are two parts of the existence. So wherever you see becoming changes take your mind away from that. Go behind that you will find the being. This is what he is saying. All names and forms not true like the silver in a conch shell. Have you seen sometime you are in a beach and you see the conch shell. Shell is open and the water is there it shines like a silver. It is not silver. So he gives that example. Very famous example in Eastern wisdom. Then the most famous is the serpent, The snake in a rope. While you are walking in the evening it is a rope but the mind superimpose the image of a snake on the rope. Fear, Sorrow, Suffering. Same way the mind superimposes. Superimposes what? He is my honey, She is my sibling and this is my money. Nothing more than that. It is all superimposition. Third example the water that appears in a mirage in a hot Sun desert. I can see you can see that I can see the water and the waves together. It makes sense. Water unchanging, Waves changing. Pay attention being and becoming being. Water no change in the water. Being becoming waves, Ocean, River, Pond. Waves can undergo modifications but the water not. So there is something in us. So constantly maintain your awareness what is that which does not undergo any modification you have found the real self. You have found the real self. See snake in a rope. Snake is superimposed. So I have to remove the ignorance. What I do? I put the throw the light on that rope and I find it is a rope it is not a snake. So I throw the light of focused awareness on the world outside to discover the ultimate reality. I find the real self. There is nothing more than that. So look at the seeker is narrating the experiences. Oh this is my experience. Wow! Just by listening to you I enter into the state of meditation. It is here and now. What three examples indicates? Aho Vikalpitam Vishwam Agyanatmai Bhasate Roopyam Shuklo Phano Raju Vari Suri Kare So what happens? It is a movement of movement from ignorance to knowledge. What work I have to do? How many practices I need to know your name, Location of your house? You see the practice part is gone. I'm a qualified seeker. Practice part is gone. It is all whether I know it or I do not know it. It's a movement from ignorance to knowledge. Action. Now see many masters and especially the Shankara and his many students who became great master. I was talking about Vajaspati Mishra also. So you see that they put the right reasoning. You have to think over it. I want to know my real self. Where it is? Within me. Where it is now? Here and now. Where it is? When it is available? 24 by 7. As long as I want to know my real self it is available 24 by 7. What I have to do? So I used to frame a question. How long it takes you to reach to your house from your workplace? 10 minutes? 15 minutes? 1 hour? 2 hours? How long it takes you to reach to yourself? You. Awareness. You. Consciousness. How long it takes you to reach to yourself? So action is not required. Action means practice is not required. This is what he is pointing to. He directly says no you cannot do the practice but until you are a qualified seeker. Why he says? Now see the understanding by reasoning. The way we work in the science, In the laboratory. So we put the reasoning outside to find out the cause and effect relationship we reach to a particular application. So now what he is saying that action is opposite. What is opposite of action? Inaction. I act or I do not act. I speak or I do not speak. They are opposite to each other. Same way what is opposite to the knowledge? Ignorance. Can action be opposite to the knowledge? No. Are you getting it? Action inaction. They make one pair. Knowledge and ignorance they make the other pair. Ignorance cannot be removed by action. What I said before to know your name. What practices I have to do? You need not to do any practice. Here is my name. Know it. See I did not know ignorance. Now I know your name. So knowledge and ignorance makes one pair. Action and inaction makes one pair. So when you are a qualified seeker what happens? You are resilient. You are extraordinarily aware that this mind is not moving to perform any action. Then what happens? The moment you start the meditation body naturally becomes still. Not like those Hatha yoga teachers and the practitioners. With the due respect that is another approach. So you force your body to be still and it cannot become still. So you say that let me do 50 postures. Then you start walking on your hands. Head down, Legs up and still that state is not reached. That is one approach. But here the approach is the knowledge. You cannot attain knowledge by performing an action. The moment you start performing action to acquire knowledge you have gone down. Mind is already out and action is always defective. So this seeker is saying I have that experience. Where is that experience? Come on this body, Breath, Mind, Sense organs, All these thoughts I have already seen that it is just an appearance. So that mind settles in my essential nature. That is what Patanjali says, So what happens then? Then you have an expensive consciousness. You know that you are that consciousness behind all the labels of your gender, Of your name, Of your age, Of your height, Of your profession. They just appear on the consciousness the way the waves appear on the water. The way. Now he says you know the wave appears on the water. Okay the way the snake appears on the rope. Means what? Snake does not exist. There's name, Form, Only one consciousness exists. I enter into that experience. And the third, See that? Third example he says, You know the shining, Shining Sun inside the conch shell appears as a silver but it does not exist. I am so rich, I am poor, I am stressed, I am so and so. They all appear like you know all glitters something. There is all glitters are not good. Something like all that glitters is not good. So what that glitters? Look at it. How smart I am. How big I am. So you are referring to the body. See that? How rich I am. Rich by the wealth. See that? So that identification drops completely. Those identification, Master, This seeker is saying, Were like snake on a rope. Like glittering, Like waves in an ocean. They do not exist. So it does not mean that whatever the money you have in your account you send to me. That does not mean. That is a material level, At a transactional reality. But at present we are talking of the absolute reality and the consciousness. Let us see how it helps us, How this verse helps us to go into the practice of meditation. So called practice is a non-practice. Close your eyes my friend. Eyes are closed. Why? You apply the knowledge at every point. Sense organs gives me the knowledge of the world but it cannot give me the knowledge of the real self. Hence I close my eyes. This is a knowledge practice if I say so. See that? Every point practice is not required. So-called practice. Only what is required? Awareness. Very good. You are aware of the body. Sajagata, Sharir ki, You are aware of the body. You are looking at the body from the top of the head to the toes. At the same time you are aware you are not the body. That much is required. So when you do Hatha Yoga it takes 10 years to discover that you are not the body. So in this path you apply the knowledge. See that? So when you are not the body, The mind is aware. Will the mind move the body? You are not the body. You are not your neighbor. You don't enter into a neighbor's house. Body is a neighbor. See that? I'm using different words to help that knowledge reveal in you. Wonderful. So still we go little deeper. Deeper means we drop the identification of the mind with the body. So look at the neck joint. Be there. Where? On the neck joint. At the same time you are aware you are not the body. Hence you are not the neck joint. But you have an experience of sensation, Comfortable and steadiness. You are not none of these experiences also. Why these experiences, Changes? Apply the principle in your mind that whatever is changing is becoming and whatever is becoming can never be me. Simple awareness is required. To attend that simple awareness we need to be a qualified seeker. Look at those teachings of our great masters. Clarity is there. So after you experience the sensation being comfortable and steadiness, What is behind that? The space. Was the space not there before? Yes. What was blocking? Ignorance. What is that ignorance? The mind has deep conditioning that I am the body. Body is me. I am the body. See that? That is what we are working through the knowledge. So move the mind on the shoulder joints. Be there. So you are aware you are not the body. Still you are looking at the shoulder joints. Still you experience the sensation comfortable and steadiness. And in that state of your experience the mind naturally moves within. Moves within what? It has left the waves. Oh yes, Wave, You are a water. Now I know that knowledge is required. Nothing more, Nothing less. Well look at the hip joint. Be there. No, I'm, We are using this step to recognize the ignorance, Drop that ignorance and allow the mind to live into that extraordinary awareness. Finished. Hip joint, Being there, Being there. I did not say becoming there. See that? So when you are a qualified seeker you instantly absorb what the teacher is saying. That is why we say that we have a very intimate, Intimate should be taken positively, Intimate relationship between the teacher and the student. That helps the teacher to pass on that knowledge. Sensation, Comfortable, Steadiness and mind says I'm aware, I'm conscious, Here is a consciousness, Here is a space which I could not see before now I see it. As behind every wave there is a water behind experience of sensation, Comfortable and, And steadiness. There is water, The consciousness, Pure entire body. Knowledge, I am NOT the body. Knowledge translates into awareness that says I am NOT the body. Very good. What is your experience? Sensation, Comfortable, Steadiness. For the highest level of a seeker that experience of sensation, Comfort and steadiness is a glitter. Why? The seeker in search of the real self. I'm just talking how the knowledge moves the mind. So I experience not only the sensation, Comfort and steadiness and the space inside, Space inside my friend. Now whatever is changing is appearance. They do not exist permanently. They are not existence. Apply this knowledge. So the mind will drop the complaint I had a lot of thoughts you know during the practice of meditation. Let there be. Thought comes and goes. Let them come and go. You are not becoming. You are being. Do you see that knowledge? Are you in that awareness? See that. Are you in that awareness? I believe you understand the difference between the neighbor and you. How close the neighbor? How close the neighbor be? Still we are not the neighbor. I'm using the word neighbor to awaken to that knowledge. First neighbor, The outermost neighbor is the world outside. What is in the world? Our place, Our gadgets, Our relations means the people, The time, The place, Objects. So wherever the mind goes become aware of the change. Honey changes, House changing, Anything everything. So now you do not want to control the mind. The mind goes anywhere and you are aware that it is changing. It is not me. It is either the wave or the glitter or the snake. First neighbor. See that's another way to move into the knowledge and drop the ignorance. First neighbor. So mind goes to the first neighbor. I know everything is changing and whatever is changing is not me. It is a knowledge. It is not a practice. What is that knowledge? Takes place in awareness. What is that awareness? It is consciousness. I cannot have a knowledge without consciousness. They both are blend. They both blend together. They cannot be separated. Now go to the second neighbor. Second neighbor is the body. Physical body. Look at the physical body from the top to the toes. Move your mind again and again to know. What to know? Body is changing? Yes. Can it be me? No. You are living into that knowledge, That awareness. This is what the seeker is narrating the experiences. Come on, This appears but it is not. This appears but it is not. Enjoy. Play. What to play? Move the mind and the body. Enjoy the stillness and even if it is moving, Enjoy the moving. Why? Body is constantly changing. It is like a wave or a snake. It is not me. You experience sensation, Relaxation, Stillness. Very good enough. Good. But it is not me even if it experiences sensation, Relaxation and stillness. Even if it is moving, It is not me. Look at it. Two neighbors. So what happens? The mind enters into an ignorance. Mind enters into an ignorance when the mind confuses itself. This world is not me but definitely I am the body. That confusion is a part of the ignorance. So I believe you are aware of both the neighbors. Aware means awareness, Means knowledge. What is knowledge? It is your experience. Simple three pointers. Awareness, Knowledge, Experience. Why? You are dropping the ignorance. Two neighbors, They interact. They create a very thick layer of the ignorance. Now our third neighbor. Third neighbor is the energy body from outside. What is this energy body? Breath. Casually look at the breath. When you look at the breath, You experience the breath. So a word of caution. Do not change the rate and the rhythm of the breath. Do not change the rate and the rhythm of the breath. Yes. Do not change the rate. Why? Breath is moving on its own. Why to change? Another wisdom. Oh, Breath is changing. I cannot be the breath. It is a part of becoming. It is a wave. It is not me. It cannot be me. Continue. So you see that now another part of the ignorance that pops up in our mind. You are aware of the breath and suddenly the mind says become aware of the body. Body is also changing. No problem. If the mind jumps onto the body. Mind jumps onto the things of the world outside. No problem at all. Why? There are three neighbors. This is not me. Mind jumps because of the past impressions. Let it happen. I am none of them. Talking of the six neighbors and me. Six waves in me. Six different types of the snake and me. Six different glitters in me. It just came to my mind. Flashed. So now what happens? The mind is. . . I'm not asking you to focus on the breath. So that will become the practice. I'm not asking you to change the rate and the rhythm of the breath. That will become the practice. What is opposite of practice? Non-practice. What is opposite of knowledge? Ignorance. What we are doing? We are removing the ignorance. Knowledge and the ignorance are one pair. Clearly understood. So in that field of awareness you have the three neighbors. So the mind changes and it looks at the body, Feels some sensation. Well, I am not the body. Body is changing. I am not the world. The world is constantly changing. Look at it. We have three neighbors. World outside which mind surely says this is not me. But because of ignorance it says this body is mine. Hence I am the body. Smartphone is mine. Hence I am the smartphone. You see we proved the logic wrong. So yes I'm not the body. Second neighbor, Third neighbor is the breath energy body. Where is the fourth neighbor? Mind. Where the thought occurs, Thought comes and goes. Simple thinking. So you are simply aware of the thoughts, Feeling, Emotions, Sensations. Let them come, Let them. . . Even I need not to say let them come and go. Why? The mind is constantly changing. I am aware that whatever is changing is not me. So mind says I am crazy, I am good, I am bad, I am rich and poor. This is just a thought. I am none of them, Not affected by them. See that? Now these four neighbors interact and they cause a lot of confusion. Confusion and the conflict leads me to ignorance and I forget. My level of awareness drops down. My master used to say, I should live in an extraordinary awareness at this moment to see their interaction. Do not fall into ignorance. When we are hundred percent clear that these four neighbors are neighbors, There is nothing I can say this is me. My friends, The way I see you and I declare I am NOT you, You are not me. The same way I am NOT the world outside, First neighbor. I am NOT the body, Second neighbor. You know, Neighbor, You go to deepen ultimate awareness of what the neighbor is. Very close, Maybe very dear and still not me. See that? That is why I use the neighbor, Second neighbor, Third neighbor, Energy body. How close it is. We always explain breath is life, Life is breath. But here in Eastern wisdom say that this is not me. Then comes the mind. Four neighbors we have covered. Outer world is a neighbor, Body is a neighbor, Breath is a neighbor, Mind is a neighbor. Fifth neighbor, It is, You know, The I thought in the mind. I am stressed, I thought in the mind, In the intellect. Intellect is not me, Hence this I thought is also not me. This is what the seeker experienced, He narrates his experience. This I thought, This is the I thought, Where? In the intellect. Fifth neighbor, What to do with it? Do nothing because doing means practice, Practice is against non-practice. Here we are removing ignorance, Knowledge, Ignorance have one pair. Understand. Is there any understanding? Yes. How? Awareness, Knowledge and experience. So how to recognize when there is a trigger, I feel relaxed, Recognize this is I thought, I am disturbed, Recognize it is I thought and you are different from I thought. How can you be a thought? See that. Just look at it. So there is a constant interaction between the five neighbors. They cause a lot of confusion in the conflict, Puts me into the ignorance and I am not able to see my real self. How come? So I thought is there in the intellect. I am rich. It has linked, I thought, Linked to the world outside. See that. I am handsome, I thought linked to the body. I have a lot of stamina, I thought linked to the third neighbor, Energy body. My mind is wandering. My means I am wandering. I thought linked to the mind. I am intelligent. I thought linked to the intellect itself. See that. We have millions and trillions of these thoughts. We forget. Forgetfulness is ignorance. Forgetfulness is ignorance, My friends. When there is ignorance, I see the waves are real. Water in the mirage is real. Glitter in the shell is real. The snake is real. This is what this seeker is saying. So just see that you are a seeker like this one who narrates the experiences. The first neighbor, Outermost world, Second body, Third energy body, Breath, Fourth is the mind, Fifth is the I thought in the intellect. What about the sixth? We cannot know it by the mind but we can feel through the experiences. How? When you feel stressed, Anxious, Yes. And also when you feel the pleasure, You feel a sense of pleasure with possessiveness, We can know this ignorant body. Then the mind says how this food has I get satisfaction. You know the word satisfaction expressed by the mind and the intellect, Chosen by the intellect, Comes from this ignorant body. So the sixth neighbor is the ignorant, Ignorance neighbor that puts me to the ignorance. The mind says sensation, Relaxation, Stillness. Very good. Thank you. You just live into that awareness. You are behind all the six neighbors. Just see it is the seventh room in your house and you are crossing one room after the other. That is the beauty of this journey. Ahu means amazing. Wow. Seeker is saying, All these six neighbors appears but what I am, Who I am is behind all the six neighbors. The glittering in the shell appears like a silver, It is not. Snake in the rope. In the sunlight, In a desert, I see the water, It is not. Can we say we are practicing meditation? No. So how we understand this meditation? We are removing the ignorance. Ignorance is opposite of knowledge. But at the very outer level we may define, Oh it is also a practice, My eyes are closed. But actually it is not. It is all a play of awareness moving from lower level of awareness to the higher level of awareness to the highest level of awareness. Lower level of awareness, I am the body. Highest level of awareness, I am the real self. What practice you need? See that. That is the beauty of this journey. Bring your awareness on the right hand. With that awareness that this is not you. Bring your awareness on the left palm. Raise both your palms, Place it in your eyes, Open the eyes inside the palms. You are into that state. We will share our experiences. Bring the hands down. How are you Sara? Only challenge is that you know, I don't, When I don't see then I don't know. Yes, Yes. I had to pick my phone back up. Okay. There is a bit of an echo. So, Very still, Very quiet. Very quiet. Good. Good Sara, Good. I could see and I could feel through my mind that you are still and calm. How are you David and Jerry? It was very good for me. It was, Again, Sort of my experience today was one of listening to all your words, But just being in a bliss and just white light the entire time until the dawn at the end. Beautiful. That is it. And if it happens 24 by 7, We are there. How are you Jerry? So, It was good. Just still, Calm, Quiet and expansive. Expansive. Wonderful. Beautiful. How are you Stephen and Sam? Real good. Very, Very quiet, Calm. As soon as I closed my eyes, I went into a place of nothingness. Beautiful. So, Similar to David, I heard your words, But it meant nothing. It was just, I was here. Melted away. Beautiful. Yes. That is it. How are you Sam? Good as well. I was a little bit today. I have been having some physical pains, But my goal was to, When I was listening to you, Was to realize that that was all, You know, Neighbors. Neighbors, Not you. Exactly. Exactly. Yeah. And I, There were no thoughts. I can't even describe it as space. I wasn't even, I was nowhere. It was amazing. I, You know, It was, I was listening to you. And then I remember one thing is that I said, You said one thing and I said, He's going to ding the bell now, Isn't he? That was great. It was very quiet. Yeah. Thank you. Beautiful. Beautiful. You see that the more we enter into that knowledge, Mind claims you have a lot, Extreme pain, But the mind now has moved, Dropped the identification, Claims it is a neighbor, The pain goes away. Buddha used to do this, Apply this practice to a lot of people. We'll talk next, In the next session. So how are you, Vaibhav? So I'm really good. And it's like, Now I can see the separation from my experiences. So I know that these are not permanent. And that makes me a natural peace. Like I know it will go away and then it's peaceful, Very peaceful. Very peaceful. Wonderful. How are you, Sangeeta? Beautiful. She has a beautiful expression that as if I'm meeting myself, Meeting myself. That's a wonderful expression. You see that? That gives you a wisdom to, Oh, I'm meeting myself. It means how long I have been living in ignorance that I am the body, The mind, The breath, The intellect, The thoughts and I thought. No, None of them. See, I'm meeting myself. How are you, Ashok? How are you, Terry? Ashok froze down, You know, His picture froze down. He did not. So Terry, Terry, How are you? I have an experience of being in the dark. Yeah. That pulsing white circle. Light circle. I went very deep into it before I even started to practice. And then I started to come back out. So I was doing more and more. More. What a beauty. I saw you. Your body was almost still. So it means being. You see that? When it can happen to Terry, Why it cannot happen to you guys? No, I'm just comparing and inspiring you. See that? So wonderful. That is all for today. We'll meet on Monday. Thank you all. Thank you. Namaste.
