[abhisamaya] Oneiric Universe

Yoga Vasishtha : "The Self is empty like space." "The Self is infinite consciousness." "The Self-realized experience higher planes of consciousness." Bassui Zenji : "Perceiving one's own Mind in a moment of single-mindedness is incomparably greater than hearing for ten thousand years why this is so." "The radiance of this Mind will light up every corner of a universe free of even a single blemish." Shiva Sutras : "The stages of yoga are suffused throughout with miraculous amazement." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIsAegSxRy4&feature=related --- In [email protected], "maheshvaranandaji" <deborahdepinto@...> wrote: > > Bodhidharma : > "Your mind is Nirvana." > > "Deluded people don't know who they are.
