Guest guest Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 " Life without desire means the realization of the pure, genuine self that is Atma. When Bound to desire, the self degenerates into selfishness. Atma turns into ego. The way of self-realization is to cleanse the self of this ego of selfishness. Then you reach a state of consciousness beyond the mind or intellect, revealing the true self that is God. The mind is like a cloth that covers and stifles consciousness, the threads of which are desires. If we give up the desires, the threads fall and the cloth disappears, revealing our true nature. - Swami Get the freedom to save as many mails as you wish. Click here to know how.
