To which the (un-dead) yogi’s (lucid consciousness) crosses over the threshold of life and death to the shining womb. <br /><br />In truth, Abhaya Caranāravinda Bhaktivedānta Svāmi was right to give you the name hiraṇya-garbhá; the quotes from your research attest to this simple truth.<br /><br />There you go again, bringing tears to my poor eyes again. <br /><br />As Śrī Svāmi Śivânanda writes in his book ‘Kundalini Yoga,’ “Remember the watch-words:- “SECLUSION, MEDITATION, DEVOTION.” <br /><br />Which is good advice for us both (and all who read this comment).<br /><br /><br />Recent Comments:<br /><br />https://jagadanandadas.blogspot.com/2019/05/three-days-in-barsana.html<br /><br />https://jagadanandadas.blogspot.com/2019/05/introduction-to-gopala-tapani-upanishad.html<br /><br /><br />Notes<br /><br />Baḥr al- hayât<br /><br />بَحْر (baḥr) “sea” اَل (al-) “(of) the” حیات (hayât) “life-force (of the soul)”.<br /><br />a-mṛ'ta kuṇḍa<br /><br />अमृत a-mṛ'ta “go through, cross over (to) not die” + कुण्ड (kuṇḍa) “(bowl shaped) well of water” (i.e., the ‘Golden Womb’ or ‘well of souls’).<br /><br /><br />Kundalini Yoga <br />by Sri Swami Sivananda<br />Published by Swami Krishnanada for The Divine Life Society (1971)<br /><br />N.B.* The simple front and back hardboard covers of this small 1971 edition are golden yellow.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
