The article refers this quotation to Chapter 18, verses 71-73, Thinker, but doesn't say which translation it's from.

Judaism: When the consciousness is absorbed in the blissful divine stream the mind is inactive and can thus be slain.



I'm sure I appear pretty darned ignorant, and I read this and think eww, that's not good, is it?

This refers to the ego-mind, Silvergirl. These days I wouldn't say 'slain' but surrendered into one's true heart.

Sikkh: Guru Nanak and the nine gurus after him describe Naam as that which draws the souls back to God and grants them liberation... It is Naam that "enlarges“ our heart, fills it with compassion and ultimately leads us to the throne of God.

Chanting of Name of the God is as important in Hinduism and Sikkhism as meditation.

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru
