Transcript

Now,

When you are breathing,

You find that there is a space in between which you just leave it vacant.

Breathe in.

Now leave it vacant.

Now breathe out.

Now leave it vacant.

Breathe in.

Keep it there.

Then leave it.

Keep outside.

Now breathe in.

Now start breathing in such a way that you stop your breathing.

Attention should be on the heart or could be on the emotions.

It's better.

Keep the breathing inside for a while.

Bring it out,

Then outside for a while.

Breathe in again.

Then you'll find that for a while you will not breathe.

See you settle down.

The layya takes place between your prana and your manhava.

Both the Shaktis become one.

Now at this stage when you are silent,

Now you think of a real intellect.

It's lost.

Just think of it,

It's lost,

It's no more than.

So what is happening,

Actually that this layya,

The attention goes into the intellects and enlightens the intellect.

See the thought is not there.

Try to find your intellect within yourself.

Now see,

See where is my intellect?

Try to find it.

It's not there.

It's not working.

Again try it.

It is working,

But it has become the samashti,

It's become the collective now.

See now.

Did you follow that?

There's no thought.

This exercise will give you this thoughtless awareness,

Establishment of thoughtless awareness.

There is no thought.

So the second lesson.

All right?

May God bless you.
