Guest guest Report post Posted May 4, 2005 You exist. You are aware that you exist. Abiding in this awareness as awareness is the practice. Looking within with awareness at one's own existence is self-inquiry. There is no higher meditation than this self existent awareness. This practice itself merges in the goal and that is Self-Realization or Self-Recognition. Sri Ramana said to Paul Brunton that the practice of the Sadhaka is the state of the Siddha. It is all an open secret and crystal clear. Everything is transparent as existing and subsiding in awareness. Know That by which all else is known!

Guest guest Report post Posted May 4, 2005 Hi Harsha, I find the practice of self inquiry difficult - confusion as to how... Is it necessary to do this? Or if you can attempt to abide in the presence/awareness, is that enough by itself? I think it is?

Guest guest Report post Posted May 4, 2005 Yes! We are present. We are aware. Remaining quietly in this presence as awareness is enough. Awareness and presence are ultimately the same thing. Existence-Being-Awareness, remaining in any one of these is the same thing.

Guest guest Report post Posted May 4, 2005 Thanks Harsha! Any tips? :-) Is it just remembrance? Yes! We are present. We are aware. Remaining quietly in this presence as awareness is enough. Awareness and presence are ultimately the same thing. Existence-Being-Awareness, remaining in any one of these is the same thing.

Guest guest Report post Posted May 4, 2005 Know That by which all else is known! hi harshiji, i probably should have come to you with this puzzle in the first place... " In sahaja samadhi the activities, vital and mental, and the three states are destroyed, never to re-appear. However others notice the jnani active, e.g. eating, talking, moving, etc. He is not himself aware of these activities, whereas others are aware of his activities. They pertain to his body and not to his Real Self, swarupa. For himself, he is like the sleeping passenger --or like a child interrupted from sound sleep and fed, being unaware of it. The child says the next day that he did not take milk at all and that he went to sleep without it. Even when reminded he cannot be convinced. So also is sahaja samadhi. " ok, so whats this about.... i know asamprajnata samadhi -super-consciousness beyond (perfet) knowledge: the Self dwelling in the Self: acognitive samadhi... i never heard of a liberated being not being aware of the three states, waking states...dreaming and deep sleep...until i saw it on your sight.. that description of the jnanai above is what meher baba calls a *mast*.... i feel like i need to know more about it? :-) devi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In the dialogues Sri Ramana differentiates between Kevala Nirvikalpa Samadhi and Sahaj Samadhi. *Asamprajnata samadhi seems like another name for Nirvikalpa Samadhi.* Have you read the " Talks " or other conversations with Sri Ramana? Perhaps you can also ask your guru on this matter since you respect him much. Love to all Harsha Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

People are attracted to a teaching that resonates with them. Probably, a lot of people look at this stuff and scratch their heads. It is certainly advisable for people to follow their natural inclinations when it comes to such things. If something makes no sense, why listen to it (regardless of who posts it).
