[Unseeking Seeker]

@ Nowayout … hmmm methinks you should understand what bliss is then, for unless imbibed and assimilated, it may be mistaken as mere exuberance.

Your brother suffers … you yet breathe, your heart beats, you eat, you sleep, you think, you remain alive. Is it selfish or are these attributes innate to your being?

As with all of this, so with bliss. It is a magnetic current divine which pervades our form, irrespective of external circumstance. So how do we get to bliss? Well, you can call this by any name, HolySpirit, God-energy, kundalini, Grace … ultimately, what it is, is a fusion of male and female polarities (within us) from the tantric perspective.

Tantra. Is it a dirty word? What is Tantra? Literally it means weaving … weaving the thread of truth. Practically, it deals with harnessing of the all pervading life force.

There are as many doors as there are pores. We may choose any path, all are pathless. Bhakti or prayer, meditation, serving others … all require surrender of identity based (ego) doership, becoming empty of beliefs, desires and fears, of thought patterns, until we are simply poised in the void in unexpectant astonishment and wonderment. Like a child. Then, at the optimal time, the energy is imbibed and assimilated enigmatically, blossoming at our heart centre, whereupon our central vein (Sushumna) is ignited. Bliss in permanence. Like our breath. It then, just is.

Too esoteric? Truth is sometimes stranger than fiction, my dear. Are you ready to simply remain still, for as long as it takes, settling for nothing less than to see God here, now, within?

Blessing be to you too, Nowayout. May the benign bliss burn graze you too.
