Absorption of the Mind - Adi Sankara |
|
The mind, afflicted by the agony of worldly existence and very much fatigued by roaming about through various births, never moves anywhere, having obtained Supreme Bliss (born out of its absorption into its source which is Pure Consciousness). |
|
When the mind has gone to the state of inactivity (thinking) thus: “What is this? Who am I and of whom am I?”––on account of the mass of non-dual Bliss, then (it becomes) insensible. |
|
Note: The insensibility mentioned here is not loss of awareness. The overpowering experience of Pure Awareness beyond thought, which does not allow of the differentiation into the knower, the known and the knowing, swallows up all sense-experience. What remains is only the Non-dual Awarness-Bliss. |
