Go Beyond Every God-Image to the Self

Once the ego took hold in human beings, and they fell from, not only Atman consciousness but even from soul consciousness, into the ego, into the level of mind identified with a mortal body, then for most beings in that condition, the only way to reach God-consciousness is through love.

17 Sep 2020Sometime ago, a question about the difference between Atman and soul has been responded with this talk. Words bring several meanings and most times they are very limiting. However, I leave my gratitude to Shunyamurti whom goes through and beyond words quite flowently : ), Namaste.

17 Sep 2020Shunya, this is, in my view, one of your most clear and understandable explanations of the TRUE Kingdom of God, of the extraordinary, not ordinary as in worship of religion, form of God–parabakhti.–the Supreme Bakhti…that is within one’s heart & consciousness, without form or image or mythology, or objective correlative.
My Question: One of my greatest challenges…perhaps because I ALLOW it to be?…is to have any interaction with those who are in ORDINARY bakhti, especially with those humans who are in the most fundamental and extreme sense. Please tell me how I should approach this issue or interact
with such humans…or should I simply withdraw from any association with them? I find that most people are either in ordinary bakhti, or claim to be agnostics or atheists. Where, besides in your Ashram, can I find people who are in EXTRAORDINARY bakhti; i.e., parabakhti. Thank you for your reply. Namaste. DeeDee
