[Wagner]

We are all vessels,
Containers for all
Of the light that's ever glistening behind star-driving fire.
But the I does not see this
So confined to our surface
To reap the illusion
That too few of us pierce through...

But if we ride upon the hour we wake
Our thoughts can't take us down to greet the lies
That tell us that we'll grow old,
That we must die before we realize
There is no “me,"
This is immortality
In disguise as reflective mind.

The microcosm is the mental representation of the macrocosm,
Which corresponds to the material universe of the senses.
Perception flows out through the microcosm and into the macrocosm.
Its source is Awareness.

Train the mind to obtain long periods of sustained, one-pointed concentration.
When this can be done continuously and with effort it is called Dhyana.
When it is done continuously and automatically it is called Samadhi.
When it is done continuously and automatically and all distinction between the meditator, the meditation and the object of meditation ceases to be, it is called Nirvikalpa Samadhi.
