Our minds fluctuate, holding on to thought after thought after thought, identifying with the past, anticipating the future, restless and relentless. But every so often, either in deep meditation or through a glimpse of quiet grace, the mind stops, and not only that, we stop identifying with the mind. In that space, it is as though we’ve entered a realm where there is no longer any separation. Even as we know we are wearing this body like a piece of clothing, we have at least temporarily left it behind. We are in tune with the awareness that we are boundless, we have broken down the divide between the skin that contains us and the world that we have labeled as outside of us. We are one with everything else. We watch the consciousness, at the same time that we are that consciousness itself. We are no longer human, we just are. Our breath is the breath of everyone else. Our existence is the existence of everyone else. Our vibrations are the vibrations of everyone else.
Yogas citta-vrtti nirodhah.
