Overcoming Your Mental Limitations.

​Dear All,

As a result of the group meditation sessions on Tuesdays and also when you meditate at home, you may begin to notice in your day-to-day life a certain sense of mental freedom which comes from regularly entering thoughtless awareness.

This sense of freedom is the beginnings of a state which in sanskrit is called 'jivan- mukti' or 'liberated while living' . The analogy for it is like this: When  a bird is born, it is first born as an egg; the egg then hatches to release the bird.

Similarly,  the 'egg' that we're 'trapped' in is the mental casing created by our ego and super-ego(conditionings). It's the awakened kundalini that 'cracks' this egg for us by taking us beyond the mind, which is artificially generated by the psychological activity of the ego and conditionings.

However the newly-born bird could still have pieces of the broken egg-shell  on it . This is why although the kundalini is awakened, a person may still persist with old forms and ideas. The conditionings haven't yet been fully shed.

It's only in shedding those conditionings that you slowly begin to realise that you can fly!

The Brain is real but not the mind.

See you at group meditation on Tuesday.

Regards
