Namaste Divine Beings.
Let's explore.
The greatest potential that lies within us,
The attainment of the supermind state,
The yogis call Turiya,
The sleepless sleep.
The supreme states of meditation.
An important attainment of going within through yoga,
Meditation.
Dancing,
Singing,
Painting,
Service,
Innovation or any activity that makes our heart sing is.
The supermind state,
The yogis call Turiya.
Whenever I enter an ancient temple,
I see the divine rising level upon level.
To me,
These sacred levels represent the ascending states of consciousness revealing the limitless potential within every human being.
There is the waking state.
Where we identify with the body and the external world.
There is the dream state where the mind creates its own realities.
There is the deep sleep where the mind and body disappear from our awareness.
And beyond them is Turiya,
The fourth state,
The state of pure meditative awareness.
The Siddhas call it the sleepless sleep.
The body may rest,
The mind may become still,
Yet.
Consciousness remains fully awake.
In this Mind Beyond Mind state,
We receive wisdom from Source.
Sometimes we approach the state through what is called the flow.
Flow arises when we are completely focused,
Inspired,
Passionate and absorbed in what we are doing.
An artist disappears into the painting.
A musician becomes the music.
A dancer becomes the dance.
An athlete becomes the movement.
A scientist becomes one with discovery.
A leader becomes completely present to a greater vision.
Time seems to disappear.
Self-consciousness falls away,
Thought and action become one.
Flow is effortless effort,
A state in which life appears to move through us.
Yet,
Turiya is deeper than flow.
In flow,
The mind becomes completely absorbed.
In Turiya,
We awaken to the consciousness beyond the mind,
The doer,
The action.
And the object of action becomes to merge into.
Oneness.
We become the witness,
Silent,
Luminous,
Limitless and free.
In Turiya,
We experience ourselves as spirit,
Above and beyond the limitations of the body and mind.
We transcend the compulsive pull of karmic imprints.
Instead of unconsciously repeating the past,
We consciously create a destiny in alignment with Dharma,
Our ordained higher purpose.
From this stillness arises intuitive intelligence.
Thoughts become clear.
Action becomes precise.
Creativity becomes effortless.
Creation flows without any inner resistance here.
We may experience the grace of Goddess Mahalakshmi not merely as material wealth but as the abundant power of consciousness taking form as in manifestation.
It is the inner abundance from which wisdom,
Opportunity,
Creativity and greater reality manifest with grace and ease.
Why must each of us connect with Durya?
Because the ordinary mind functions within the boundaries of memory,
Conditioning,
Fear and past experience.
Turiya opens us to the possibility beyond these boundaries.
It does not give us a different mind.
It reveals the greater consciousness that has always existed within us.
As we connect with Turiya,
We multiply our potential.
Our tension becomes stronger.
Our intuition becomes clearer.
Our creativity expands.
Our action becomes more effective.
Our leadership becomes visionary.
Our relationships become more conscious.
Our higher purpose becomes unmistakable.
We do not merely work harder.
We access a higher state from which inspired action can flow.
Like the ego,
We rise above.
The immediate and perceive the greater picture.
We gain vision to lead.
The wisdom to serve,
The clarity to fulfill our highest purpose.
In Turiya,
We no longer act from fear,
Conditioning and limitations.
We act from mastery within.
This is the objective of meditation.
This is the fulfillment of yoga.
This is the transformative gift of enlightenment.
Be still.
Be awake.
Be inspired.
Be the spirit.
Enter the flow.
Go beyond the mind.
Manifest from Turiya.
From the master of all,
Become the master of all that we do.
Duria.
Is not true.
An escape from the world.
It is the mastery of life from the highest state of consciousness.
Om Namah Shivaya.
Nandiji.
