The Four States of Consciousness & Seven Attributes of Turiya #34
The nature of the waking, dreaming, and deep sleep states of humanity has been studied by Indian seers for millennia. They have not just examined it from the waking state, like with wires and machines, but from within dreams and deep sleep, and in meditation on the fourth state beyond these three as well. The result has been the discovery of mankind’s inner nature, from wherein all the physical universe has sprung — as projection of mind rather than creation by God. In short, the entire Kingdom of Heaven lies within us, and only a very small and ever changing portion of it lies outside.
The Nine Steps to Perfection #120
Sadhana, as understood by beginning and intermediate practitioners, is mostly a matter of body, prana, and ritualistic worship. When it becomes obvious after a time that the mind will need its own form of practice, more subtle elements are called into play. The inward journey really begins here, for the “kingdom of Heaven” as it could be called, is most certainly within. The mind, with its thoughts, intellect, and ego constituents, are these inner territories. When they are detected, explored, and refined, all manner of exquisite experiences, like samadhis, come forward. For those whose main path is one of wisdom, this chart lays out the dynamics of a mind that is making itself perfectly qualified for the singular experience of ultimate Samadhi, called Nirvikalpa.

With the Supreme Goal of Human Existence, with Its seven sterling facets, set before ones gaze, divine life will always and ever be at hand.
From Atomic Particles to Atmic Particles #61
The final conclusion of the luminaries and the revealed scriptures is that “All Is Brahman.” But how can this ultimatum be believed when Brahman cannot be an object, an energy, or a thought? As Sri Ramakrishna explained, Brahman, Divine Reality, infuses everything like sweetness permeates sugar cane juice. The same sunlight appears in multiple dew drops that have collected on garden flowers in the early morning. The Light of Consciousness shines in all individuals, and all things — though apparently separated. Similarly, in keeping with the trends of modern science and contemporary human understanding, a way to understand the all-pervasive nature of Consciousness is through examining particles. Western Science has done so on the physical level, but the ancient contemplatives of India saw past the atomic particle and perceived Consciousness vibrating at subtler and subtler levels. This inner vision also revealed to them the presence of inner realms and the secrets of where the eternal Soul goes to and comes from before birth and after death. Whether put in terms of bodies, worlds, deities, or vibration, in-depth teachings on particles clarify our comprehension.
