Climax of meditation


“Prolonged meditation greatly calms down the mind. The mind stops wavering and being unstable.


Such a mind remains steady like a flame burning in a place free of disturbing gusts of wind. All that it does is to emit un-flickering light - light on the inner soul.

Once that happens, the person who meditates becomes full of bliss. This bliss is incomparable with any other pleasure attained by indulging in the senses and sense objects. It surpasses all those low level pleasures.

It is beyond the mind. It is experienced only by the intellect and it is the inner bliss coming straight from the soul. This bliss is limitless and eternal.

Once a person attains this blissful state, he remains firm on his path and does not waver any more. He becomes totally disinterested in any other form of pleasure, since nothing can match this inner bliss.

This bliss puts an end to all miseries. It breaks off all bonds that eventually lead to misery. The meditator frees himself completely.

Further, such a realized person sees the same soul in each and everything around him, and also everything in his own self. Or in other words he identifies himself with the universe. The notion of individual ‘I’ and ‘that’ just vanishes, leaving behind just a universal ‘I’”
