🎵 🎵 Yes,
It's always there.
It is the same thing that in Ashtavakra we call the Sakshi bhav.
Yeah,
The same.
Yeah,
It's the same Sakshi.
It is the witness is always there.
It doesn't matter whether it is a very calm situation or a turbulent situation with the family members.
Even when there is lots of drama going on Vandana knows that there is a part of me which is not involved in the drama.
It's the mind that is involved.
The mind says I like this.
He should have not done this.
He should have done this.
The mind is going on wah wah wah wah.
But there is a part that is knowing inside what is going on.
Yes,
Sometimes you hear a very quiet voice and then I don't say this.
Don't talk like this.
And still you go and say it and then you regret it that you know I didn't listen to the quietness.
Yeah,
So that's what I'm telling you.
The mind is the one that speaks but the noor does not speak.
The noor is that bliss,
That quietness that is always there.
Why is it called bliss?
Because it noor does not jump in and do the drama.
It is devoid of anger.
It is devoid of hatred.
It is devoid of emotion.
All these emotions are happening where?
Inside.
Where inside?
In what?
In which faculty do you notice it?
I guess it's going on in the mind.
Correct.
So it's the mind that is involved in all this drama.
But the noor is untouched by all the drama.
You notice it.
So you have to now just knowingly again and again be the noor.
That is the practice that you have to do.
Yeah,
We give a lot of attention to the mind and we ignore the noor which is always there.
Yes,
It's not that the noor is suddenly manufactured in Advaita session.
It was always there.
Yeah,
We have not given it importance.
So it becomes like a very small inconspicuous thing sitting in the corner.
Yeah,
And the mind had become bigger because I gave a lot of attention to the mind.
Now I recognize that no,
I'm giving the attention at the wrong place.
I've got the mind.
See the noor behind and be there.
You're taking the life away from the mind and coming back to the noor.
This is who I am.
Yes.
So is it the same as like in one of the messages I mentioned to maintain the koanimal ki,
Sambhava.
Yes,
Yes.
It is the same thing.
Sakshi bhav,
Sambhav,
Equanimity,
Non-reaction,
Going with the flow,
Being with reality as it is.
Just different different ways of saying be in the noor.
Oh okay.
And that's the only thing that's required like just be in the witness mode all the time.
Yes,
Yes.
That you have to make it a practice.
Yes,
Once you complete this first leg,
This is the first leg of the meditation.
Then the second leg of the meditation you can write it down for future if it's not happening now.
Where you keep staying in the noor and see is this noor limited to this body-mind complex or you know is the knowingness like a fiend.
Is it finite or is it infinite?
Just check.
You don't have to focus and increase the mind's attention.
We are not talking about attention of the mind.
We are talking about the noor.
It is there.
Okay.
Yeah.
So that is the next step,
The next second leg.
And we can go slowly,
Slowly even if it is not happening all in one go in one two weekends.
We can always communicate on email and you tell me okay I have learned to just be the noor now.
Now what is the next step and then I'll guide you.
Okay so don't go.
It does not have to be done.
All has to be crushed into this two weekends.
So it's okay.
We can go at our speed every bit.
Up,
Up,
Slowly.
