EXISTENCE
That Space where breath and thoughts originate
GR explained how he felt that the Space where breath and thoughts originate IS ALWAYS ON. It was always there, before the breath, before the thought, as the Silent Witness.
Mahaprabu: That alone is Existing. You will feel like you are immersing. Later it will feel like you are being engulfed by it. After that only, you will know “That alone exists”. Actually only that space is there. That feeling you described as “Space is always ON” = Disappearance of GR. (Substitute your initials here. Refers to the ego)
GR: Disappearance of the non-existent GR!
Mahaprabu: Instead of non-existent GR say the disappearance of the thought of the non-existent GR. Since the thought of GR does exist. Disappearance needs something to exist!!
Read the above line again to see how careful and attentive Sri Mahaprabu is at all times. This discussion happened while he was driving. He catches the mistake I made when I said ‘Disappearance of the non-existent ego’, and gives a clear explanation for it.

Please read the post titled Boss and the Servant, first. For 2 hours Sri Mahaprabu was in Samadhi.

And why the Suffering that we feel is purely imaginary. He proves this beyond doubt. Read on!...
