“That which you see as other than righteousness and unrighteousness,

other than all this cause and effect, other than what has been and what is to be

-tell me That”. – Katha Upanishad

The Mundaka Upanishad states that when the Brahman is realized

“the fetters of the heart are broken and all doubts are resolved”.

“He does not linger where the Buddha is, and where there is no Buddha

he passes right on”. (Zenrin Poem)

In the Zen teaching of Huang Po (translated by John Blofeld) it is said

“When you practice mind-control (Zazen or dhyana), sit in the

proper position, stay perfectly tranquil, and do not permit the

least movements of your minds to disturb you”.

“PLACE BEFORE YOU THE UNSHAKABLE VAJRA OF NO DISSUASION”.

-Lord Atisha

The Supreme Equipoise

Where in the crest of Love

All forces are exacted to millennial perfection

At levels that are much beyond human perception

The Mother of the Holy Trinity

Sits on her resplendent seat

Adumbrating the future sequence of events

That will map the destiny of a new yuga

By turning the wheel 9 times and 1

“Complete as one-Everything is complete with awakened mind.

All the phenomena of samsara and nirvana are completed”./Dzogchen Tantra

Gadhule aranye samayer shaisab simha dwar hate mare uki

Dekhe agnir tapashay samudra tate kampan

Bramhaputra, kaveri jyotsnar aloy arati kare maha-bharater etihash ke

Samantabhadrer bakhya hate subhro jyoti haridwar theke alokanandar pathe

Nijeke utshorgo kariyache

Kal sesh o agomanir noton mantre

Dikhito hay ei jagat bishwa…

As the age ripens

And rivers ceaselessly flowing to the sea

Observe the silence in the vast void of speechless ocean

The naked sun will be the pilgrim of thy soul

Rising and churning

Bringing chaos to the point of surrender

Love conquering all opposites

By the force of the Mother of the Holy Trinity….

The ESSENCE is free of conceptual thinking and at the same time, its expression is conceptual thinking. Do you understand this?

The profound Knowledge of Brahman has been described in the Bhagavad Gita as the ‘Sovereign Science’.

“By realization of the Self, my dear, through hearing, reflection, and meditation, all this is known”. (Brihadaranyaka Upanishad)

Binds space and time

Through fluted minstrelsy of ‘prana’

The world is revisited again

Through the body

Pervading a vast field of awareness

The junction

Where signal loops coincide

And text, image and sound

Appear from the Indefinable

All that exists is this and not

Beyond it, we learned to pray

Immeasurable eons of a vast mandala of prayers

Is our body…

It is laid bare like a monolith

Tortured through the ages

Canonized and crucified

Yet, wise like a night owl

It enjoyed a charade among autumnal flowers

Perspiring like a log

Kalida in between the Lights

Yogishwar Sri Kalipada Guharoy

And burning like a flame

For the consolation of words

That became a stupa of silence

In the abode of endless prayers…
