Description

As part of a 21-volume series, this book provides insight into the truth of the impermanence, suffering and impersonality of all corporal and mental phenomena of existence is Vipassana mediation.

The meditation, which leads to insight, used in Theravada; recommended by the Buddha. Meditation is the way to god, the truth. There is no other way to truth. Truth is not something ready-made.

Truth is something that you have to discover by becoming somewhere else, but within you own being. You are truth covered by unconsciousness. Meditation is nothing but a device to make you aware of your real self.

Awareness of breathing is helpful is kundalini practice. It generates energy. It conserves energy and helps the life force to go upward.

Sahasrar and brahma randhra are the names given to the seventh charka in kundalini yoga. If you do not work on kundalini, if you work on the third body, then too you will reach this point, but it will not be known as brahma randhra, and the first six charkas will not be there. You have gone through another passage, so the milestones with be different, but the end will be the same. All the seven bodies are connected with the seventh chakra, so from anywhere on can reach it. The serpent symbol was chosen to represent the phenomenon of Kundalini.

We have created idols of God Because we cannot perceive an abstraction. We know that the word god is not God, but we have to use the word. The word is a symbol. We know that the word god is a symbol, a term, and not actually God, but we will have to use its. And this is the paradox: when you know that something is not a fact, but also know that it is not a fiction, that it is a necessity, and a real one, then you must transcent the symbol. Then you must be beyond it, and you must know the beyond also.

The feeling of Kundalini is like the movement of a serpent-are just symbolic, but they correspond with reality. The same movement is there, the subtle movement, just like a snake, is there. The force is there, the golden appearance is there-and all of this corresponds to the symbol of the snake.
