Locating Presence Having
the impulse to be present is
an achievement in itself, yet it is only
the first step. The next step—which we
must learn to take quickly—is to follow
that impulse and actually locate presence
in ourselves. Related thoughts
It
is quite easy to be in imagination.
It is extremely difficult to engage presence. The
man whose mind has truly learned to pray
converses with the Lord face to face. When you find the one you seek, abandon the world and let it go. Release
the mind, let it fly from the bow and
swiftly find its target—Brahman. At
first you find yourself behind the veil,
even if you are practicing remembrance.
After that comes unveiling, which is
presence. What
you want is profoundly expensive,
and difficult to find, yet close
by. Kabir When you find it, you will want for nothing else. |
