Chapter 24

Purify Body and Mind Of self-Contraction

In The Course Of The Frontal Yoga, There Will Be Occasional “Surges” Of The Spirit-Current (or Spirit-Energy) In the Frontal Line. (These Surges Of Energy May Even Pass, Perceptibly or Imperceptibly, From the Frontal Line Into The Spinal Line, Thus Completing The Circle.) Such Surges May Be Weak or Strong. They May Produce yawning and General Relation, and They May Otherwise Reveal or Yield Feelings Of General Pleasure, Bliss, or Happiness. Frontal Surges May Aslo Be Accompanied or Followed By temporary symptoms of mental, emotional, and physical discomfort, pain, fever, and even physical disease. (Such phenomena Tend To Come and Go, In Cycles of Relative comfort and discomfort. They Are Merely Purifying Episodes, Shown Through The Evidence Of psychol-physical Release, Rebalance, and Rejuvenation.) Occasionally, There May Even Be an experience ~ that Feels Like A Kind Of electric “Shock” or ‘Jolt”, That Briely Energizes the body Beyond ordinary Tolerance. In All Of This, the human character Is Positively Changed (psychically, mentally, emotionally, and physically) Through The Invasion Of the frontal personality By The Divine Spirit-Current.

“Transition From The Third To The Fourth Stage”

 

Among All Of These Signs There Should Appear Progressive Evidence Of What I Have, Since Childhood, Called “The Thumbs”. In The Second Stage Of Membership In The Free Communion Church and In The Earlier Phases Of The Third Stage Of Membership In The Free Communion Church There Should Be At Least Occasional experience Of An Intense Invasion Of The Frontal Line By The Spirit-Force, Beginning At the top of the head and Descending Into The lower vital Region To the bodily base. The Pressure (or Invasive Energy) Of This Event Is Rather Overwhelming, and It Must Be Allowed. At Last, It Is Not Possible (Nor Would You Wish) To Defend Your self Against This Invading Pressure. It Feels Like A Solid and Yet Fluid Mass Of Force, Like A Large Hand All Made Of Thumbs, Pressing Down, Engorging the throat, Penetrating the mind, emotional core, and physical body. This Simple and Most Basic Form Of The Thumbs Is a Necessary, Although Generally Only Occasional, experience Associated With Spirit-Baptism. It Is The Divine Power Of Husbanding Grace At Work.

As The Process Develops Toward The Transition From The Third To The Fourth Stage Of Membership In The Free Communion Church, the Simple and Most Basic experience Of The Thumbs Should Continue To Occur On Occasion, and, On One or More Occasions, the experience Of The Thumbs May appear In its Most Extended and Complete Form. In That Case, The Descending Fullness Will Completely Overwhelm the ordinary frontal or human sense Of bodily Existence. The Current Will Move Fully Down To the bodily base, and It Will Then Turn About and Pass Into The Spinal Line With Such Force That You Will Feel Utterly Intoxicated, and There Will Be The Feeling That the body Is Somehow Rotating Forward and Down From the crown of the head As Well As Backward and Up From the base of the spine. This Rotation Will Seem Suddenly To Complete Itself, and the experience Will Suddenly Be One Of Feeling Released From the gross physical body, So That You Are Present Only As an energy body, Spherical In Shape, Centerless (Empty or Void Of Center, mind, and self) and Boundless (bodiless, or Without form), Although Somehow and Partially or Potentially Centered, Defined, and Limited By The Essence Of form, body, mind, and self. The Ordinary References Of the body-mind and the environment Will Not Make Much Sense or Affect this experience Of The Thumbs In Any Significant Fashion, Although There May Be Some Superficial Awareness Of the body, the room, and so forth. This experience Will Last For a few moments or minutes. And Just When this experience Has Become Most Pleasurable, So That You Would Have it Continue Indefinitely, the ordinary sense of the body-mind Will Return.

This Complete experience Of The Thumbs Is A Transitional Samadhi (Like Conditional Nirvikalpa Samadhi and Jnana Samadhi). Therefore, its Significance Is Not In the experience itself, but In its Effect (or In The More Mature Process That it Allows or Indicates). That Is To Say, it Is An Indication That The Process Of self-Transcendence Is Moving On From Concentration In the frontal personality To The Next Stage, Which Involves The Process Of Ascent To The Ajna Door Via The Spinal Line.

Either The Samadhi Of The Thumbs (Which Is the experience Of The Thumbs In Its Most Extended and Complete Form) or Else the experience Of The Thumbs In Its Simple and Most Basic Form (but With Other Clear Signs Of The Stable Awakening Of Full Spinal Conductivity) Will Naturally Appear In The Course Of Spiritual i Practice. The Sign Of The Thumbs Is One Of The Necessary Indicators (Along With Evidence Of Real and Stable Equanimity In the daily life of the frontal personality) Of The Transition From The Third To The Fourth Stage Of Membership In The Free Communion Church.

The Sign Of The Thumbs Is One Of The Primary Signs Of The Transcendence Of Bondage and Confinement To the frontal personality and the gross bodily idea of self. The Sign Of The Thumbs Indicates That The Knots In The Frontal Line (In the crown of the head, the total brain, the throat, the heart, the solar plexus, the abdomen, the genitals, and the anal-perineal area) Are Opened To The Spirit-Current (and Can Be Responsibly Submitted To The Point Of Such Openness In The Context Of daily living). The Sign Of The Thumbs Is Also An Indication That The Primary Knot or Root-Contraction In The Deep or Base Region Of the body-mind, From the solar plexus To the bodily base, Has Been, and Can Continue To Be, Opened To The Spirit-Current, So That Great Fullness Of Bliss and Life Is Established Deep In the body, the emotional being, and the mind of the frontal personality (and That Bliss and That Life Are Overflowing, So That The Course Of Ascent Is Revealed and Established).

The Sign Of The Thumbs Has Often Appeared To Me, Even In My Childhood. In The Course Of My Years Of Practice, I Gradually Permitted The Thumbs To Achieve Its Full and Complete Form. My Spontaneous Experience Of Spiritual, Transcendental, and Divine Regeneration In I960, During My Junior Year At The College Of Columbia University, Was A Regeneration Of The Total Mechanism Associated With The Thumbs (Although I Needed To Continue To Struggle With The Limits Of the frontal personality For Some Years Afterward Before I Would Allow The Full Samadhi Of The Thumbs). Therefore, The Full Samadhi Of The Thumbs Did Not Begin To Appear Until I Began To Practice In The Company Of Rudi (Who Taught The “Work” Of Spirit-Reception Through The Surrender Of the frontal personaliy and The Opening Of The Frontal Line).

The Process Signified By The Sign Of The Thumbs Involves The Spontaneous Relinquishment Of Neurotic Identification With gross bodily, emotional, and mental states. This Relinquishment Takes Place Through Spontaneous Identification With the subtle energy body that Envelops the gross body, and Spontaneous Identification With The Spirit-Current Itself (Which Pervades both the subtle or etheric energy body and the gross physical body As Well As Every other Level Of the Manifest personality and the Cosmic worlds).

The Transition From The Third To The Fourth Stage Of Membership In The Free Communion Church Is Not Fully Indicated Until The Process and The Kinds Of phenomenal Signs I Have Described Have Become Fully Evident. Those Signs Include Real and Stable Evidence Of frontal Equanimity, Evidence Of The Full and Stable Awakening Of Spinal Conductivity, and Either Simple and Basic Evidence Of the experience Of The Thumbs Or Fully Extended and Complete Evidence Of The Samadhi Of The Thumbs.

Chapter 24

By Listening To Me, By Hearing Me, and By Seeing Me, Purify body and mind Of self-Contraction.

 

In The True (and Characteristic) Course Of The Frontal Yoga In The Way Of The Heart, There Will Be Occasional “Surges” (or Spontaneous Invasions) Of The Spirit-Current (or Spirit-Energy) In The Frontal Line. (These Surges Of Spiritual Energy May Even Pass, Perceptibly or Imperceptibly, From The Frontal Line Into The Spinal Line, Thus Completing The Circle.) Such Surges May Be Weak or Strong. They May Produce yawning and General Relaxation, and They May Otherwise Reveal or Yield Feelings Of General Pleasure, Happiness, or Love-Bliss. Frontal Surges May Also Be Accompanied or Followed By temporary symptoms of mental, emotional, and physical discomfort, pain, fever, and even physical disease. (Such phenomena, If they Are Attendant Upon The Real Spiritual Process, Tend To Come and Go, In Cycles Of Relative comfort and discomfort. As Such, They Are Merely Purifying Episodes, Shown Through The Evidence Of psycho-physical Release, Rebalance, and Rejuvenation.) Occasionally, There May Even Be an experience that Feels Like A Kind Of electric “Shock” or “Jolt”, That Briefly Energizes the body Beyond ordinary Tolerance. In and By All Of This, the human character Is To Be Positively Changed (psychically, mentally, emotionally, and physically) Through The Invasion Of the frontal personality By The Divine (and By Grace Revealed) Spirit-Current.

 

“In The Way Of The Heart, The (Possible) Transition From The “Basic” Fourth Stage Of Life To The “Advanced” Fourth Stage Of Life.”

Among All Of These Signs There Should Appear Progressive Evidence Of What I Have, Since Childhood, Called “The Thumbs”. Beginning In The “Basic” Context Of The Fourth Stage Of Life In The Way Of The Heart, There Should Be At Least Occasional experience Of An Intense Invasion Of The Frontal Line By The Grace-Given Spirit-Force, Beginning At the top of the head and Descending Into The lower vital Region To the bodily base. The Pressure (or Invasive Force) Of This Event May Be Rather (and Even Happily) Overwhelming, and It Must Be Allowed. At Last, It Is Not Possible (Nor Would You Wish) To Defend Your psycho-physical self Against This Invading Pressure. It Feels Like A Solid and Yet Fluid Mass Of Force, Like A Large Hand All Made Of Thumbs, Pressing Down, Engorging the throat, Penetrating the mind, the emotional core, and the physical body. This Simple and Most Basic Form Of “The Thumbs” Is a Necessary, Although Generally Only Occasional, experience Associated With Spirit-Baptism. It Is The Divine Goddess-Power and Husbanding Grace At Work. (And “The Thumbs”, Once Established, May Continue To Be experienced, On Occasion, Even In The Later Advanced and Ultimate Stages Of Life In The Way Of The Heart.)

As The Spiritual Process Develops Toward The (Possible) Transition From The “Basic” Fourth Stage Of Life To The “Advanced” Fourth Stage Of Life, In The Way Of The Heart, the Simple and Most Basic experience Of “The Thumbs” Should Continue To Occur On Occasion, and, On One or More Occasions, the experience Of “The Thumbs” May Appear In its Most Extended and Complete Form. In That Case, The Descending Spiritual Fullness Will Completely Overwhelm the ordinary frontal or human sense Of bodily Existence. The Spirit-Current Will Move Fully Down To the bodily base, and It Will Then Turn About and Pass Into The Spinal Line With Such Force That You Will Feel Utterly Intoxicated, and There Will Be The Feeling That the body Is Somehow Rotating Forward and Down From The Crown Of the head As Well As Backward and Up From the base of the spine. This Rotation Will Seem Suddenly To Complete Itself, and the experience Will Suddenly Be One Of Feeling Released From the gross physical body, So That You Feel You Are Present Only As an energy body (Even the etheric form, Otherwise Associated With and Conformed To the gross physical body, but Now, By Grace, Infused By and Conformed To The Divine Spirit-Energy), and You Will Feel Your psycho-physical self To Be Somehow Spherical In Shape, Centerless (Empty or Void Of Center, mind, and Familiar ego-self) and Boundless (As If Even bodiless, or Without form), Although Somehow and Partially or Potentially Also Yet Centered, Defined, and limited By The Essence Of form, body, mind, and ego-self. The ordinary References Of the body-mind and the environment Will Not Make Much Sense or Affect this experience Of “The Thumbs” In Any Significant Fashion, Although There May Be Some Superficial Awareness Of the body, the room, and so forth. This experience Will Last For a few moments or minutes. And Just When this experience Has Become Most Pleasurable, So That You Would Have it Continue Indefinitely, the ordinary sense of the body-mind Will Return.

This Complete experience Of “The Thumbs” Is A Transitional Samadhi (Like Fifth Stage conditional Nirvikalpa Samadhi and Sixth Stage Jnana Samadhi). Therefore, its Significance Is Not In the experience itself, but In its Effect (or In The More Mature Process That it Allows or Indicates). That Is To Say, it Is An Indication That The Process Of self-Transcendence Is Moving On From Concentration In the frontal personality To The Next Immediately Possible Developmental Stage, Which Involves The Process Of Ascent To The Ajna Door Via The Spinal Line.

Either The Samadhi Of “The Thumbs” (Which Is the experience Of “The Thumbs” In Its Most Extended and Complete Form) Or Else the experience Of “The Thumbs” In Its Simple and Most Basic Form Will, By Grace, Spontaneously Appear In The Full (or Fully Developed) Frontal Course Of Spiritual Practice In The Way Of The Heart. Therefore, In The Way Of The Heart, The Sign Of “The Thumbs” (In Either Of Its Two Forms, and Along With Evidence Of Real and Stable human and Spiritual Equanimity In the daily life of the frontal personality) Is One Of The Necessary Indicators That Must Precede The Transition From The “Basic” Fourth Stage Of Life To The “Advanced” Fourth Stage Of Life (or Even The Early Transition To The Sixth Stage Of Life In The Way Of The Heart, Directly From The Point Of Basic Maturity In The “Basic” Fourth Stage Of Life In The Way Of The Heart).

The Sign Of “The Thumbs” Is One Of The Primary experiential Signs Of The Transcendence Of Bondage and Confinement To the frontal personality and the gross bodily idea of ego-self. The Sign Of “The Thumbs” Indicates That The Knots In The Frontal Line (In The Crown Of the head, the Total brain, the throat, the heart, the solar plexus, the abdomen, the genitals, and the anal-perineal area) Are Opened (At Least Temporarily) To The Grace-Given Spirit-Current (and Can, By Right Practice, Be Responsibly Submitted To The Point Of Such Openness In The Context Of daily living). The Sign Of “The Thumbs” Is Also An Indication That The Primary Knot or Root-Contraction In The Deep or Base Region Of the body-mind, From the solar plexus To the bodily base, Has Been, and Can Continue To Be, Opened To The Grace-Given Spirit-Current, So That Great Fullness Of Love-Bliss Is Established Deep In the body, the emotional being, and the mind of the frontal personality. (And When That Love-Bliss Is Overflowing, The Course Of Ascent May Be Revealed and Established, or, If There Is An Early Spontaneous Awakening Of The Witness-Consciousness, The Way Of The Heart May Open Directly To The Course Associated With The Sixth Stage Of Life.)

The Sign Of “The Thumbs” Has Often Appeared To Me, Even In My Childhood. In The Course Of My Years Of Practice, I Gradually Permitted “The Thumbs” To Achieve Its Full and Complete Form. Even A Full Decade Before The Great Event Of My Divine Re-Awakening, I Enjoyed The Spontaneous Experience Of Spiritual Regeneration Via The Regeneration Of The Total Mechanism (or Process) Associated With “The Thumbs”, but (Even In Such A Case) the frontal personality Must Be “Worked” (or Purified, and its Knots Un-Tied) By The Spirit-Current Of “The Thumbs”, Until the frontal personality and The Frontal Line Cease To Obstruct or Prevent The Advancement Of The Great Process. Therefore, Even After The Spontaneous Regeneration Of The Process Of “The Thumbs” (or The Regeneration Of The Spiritual Process In The Frontal Line), It Was Yet Required Of Me To Continue To Struggle With the limits of the frontal personality For Some Years Before I (or the body-mind) Would Allow The Full Samadhi Of “The Thumbs” and, More Importantly, The Ultimate “Work” Of “The Thumbs”.

In My Own Case, The Full Samadhi Of “The Thumbs” Did Not Begin To Appear Until I Began To Practice The “Work” Of Surrender (or The Intentional Opening Of The Frontal Line To Receive The Spirit-Force) In The Company Of My First Spiritual Teacher (and Spirit-Baptizer). However, The Struggle With The Frontal Yoga Did Not Become Fruitful (To The Degree Of Transition To The Yoga Of The Spinal Line) Until Struggle Itself (or The physical, emotional, and mental Effort Of Surrender) Was Transcended (In and By The Inherently self-Transcending Heart-Response To The Spiritually Self-Revealing Reality). Therefore, That Transcendence Of The Effort Of Surrender Was Not The Result Of Strategic Non-Effort (or Even Any False Effort), but It Was The Spontaneous Evidence Of Simple (and Yet Profound) Responsive Identification With The Revealed Spirit-Current Itself (and Responsive Identification With The Total Self-Revelation Of The Spiritual, Transcendental, and, Ultimately, Divine Condition).

As With Me, So For My Devotees. The Process Signified and Initiated By The Sign Of “The Thumbs” Necessarily Involves Intelligent, Intentional, and Otherwise Spontaneous Relinquishment Of Un-Happy Identification With gross bodily, emotional, and mental states. This Relinquishment Takes Place Through Spontaneous Identification With the subtle (etheric) energy body that Envelops the gross body, and Spontaneous Identification With The By Grace Revealed Spirit-Current Itself (Which Pervades both the etheric energy body and the gross physical body, As Well As Every Other Level Of the conditionally Manifested personality and the Cosmic worlds). And All Of This Is Initiated (and Accomplished) By The Divine Spirit-Presence Itself (If Only My Devotee Responds To Me In Love, and This To The Degree Of Constant Free Communion With My Mere and Blessing Presence).

Therefore, In The Way Of The Heart, The (Possible) Transition From The “Basic” Fourth Stage Of Life To The “Advanced” Fourth Stage Of Life Is Not Fully Indicated Until The Complete Frontal Process and The Kinds Of phenomenal Signs I Have Described Have Become Fully Evident. And The Necessary Signs Include Real and Stable Evidence Of frontal Equanimity (Both human and Spiritual), Evidence Of The Full and Stable Awakening Of Spinal Conductivity (Of The Spirit-Current), and Either Simple and Basic (but Really Effective) Evidence Of the experience Of “The Thumbs” Or Fully Extended and Complete Evidence Of The Samadhi Of “The Thumbs”. And If A Transition Is To Be Made Directly From The Point Of Basic Maturity In The “Basic” Context Of The Fourth Stage Of Life In The Way Of The Heart To Practice Of The Way Of The Heart In The Context Of The Sixth Stage Of Life, The Same Complete Frontal Process and The Same phenomenal Signs Must Be Demonstrated, Although There May Be less experience Of Significant Spinal Spirit-Conductivity (Especially In The Form Of The Motive Of attention To Ascend), and the experience Of “The Thumbs” May Be Limited To The Simple and Basic Form, but There Must Also Be Clear and Stable and Native and Free Identification With The Witness-Position Of Consciousness.

In Every Case, The “Work” Must Continue Until The “Work” Is Done.

Sutra 45

(Bold text indicates additions to the 1991edition)

In The True (and Characteristic) Course Of The Frontal Yoga In The Only By-Me Revealed and Given Way Of Adidam (Which Is The One and Only By-Me-Revealed and By-Me-Given Way Of The Heart), There Will Be Occasional “Surges” (or Spontaneous Invasions) Of My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spiritual Energy In The Frontal Line. And These Frontal Surges Of My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spiritual Energy Will (In Turn) Also Pass, Perceptibly or imperceptibly, From The Frontal Line Into The Spinal Line – Thus Completing The Circle. Such Surges May Be Weak or Strong. They May Produce yawning and General Relaxation, and They May (Otherwise) Reveal (or Yield) Feelings Of General Pleasure and Fundamental Happiness, As Well As Various Degrees Of Ecstatic (or ego-Transcending) Participation In My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Love-Bliss Itself. As A Result Of Your Own Accumulated psycho-physical Patterning Of self-Contraction, These Frontal Surges May Also Be Accompanied (or, Otherwise, Followed) By temporary symptoms of mental, emotional, and physical discomfort, pain, fever, and even physical disease. If such symptomatic phenomena Are Associated With The Real Spiritual Process, they Tend To Come and Go (In Cycles Of Relative Comfort and Discomfort). As Such, They Are Gracefully Purifying Episodes, Shown Through The Evidence Of psycho-physical Release, Rebalance, and Rejuvenation. Occasionally, There May Even Be an experience that Feels Like A Kind Of electric “Shock” (or “Jolt”) That Briefly Energizes the body Beyond ordinary Tolerance. In and By All Of This, the human character Is Divinely Urged To Be Responsively and Positively Changed (psychically, mentally, emotionally, and physically), Through The Invasion Of the frontal personality (and, indeed, the Total body-mind) By My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spirit-Current Of Love-Bliss-Light.

“In Order For The Transition To Be Made From The Point Of Maturity In The (Fully Established) “Basic” (or By-Me-Spiritually-Awakened-and, Spiritually, Fully Technically Responsible) Context Of The Fourth Stage Of Life In The Way Of The Heart To The “Perfect Practice” Of The Way Of The Heart, There Must Also Be True and Stable Identification With The Witness-Position Of Consciousness.

When the body Is “Round”, The Witness Is its “Shape”.

 

Among All Of These Signs There Must (Primarily) Appear Progressive Evidence Of What I Have, Since Childhood, Called “The `Thumbs”‘. Beginning In The “Basic” (or, Spiritually, Fully Technically Responsible) Context – or, Possibly, Even In The “Original” (or Foundation, and Beginning Spiritual) Context – Of The Fourth Stage Of Life In The Way Of The Heart, There Should Be At Least Occasional Experience Of An Intense Invasion Of The Frontal Line By My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spirit-Force Of Love-Bliss Beginning At The Crown Of the head, and Descending Into The lower vital Region, To the bodily base. The Pressure (or Invasive Force) Of This Event May Be Rather (and Even Happily) Overwhelming – and It Must Be Allowed. At Last, It Is Not Possible (Nor Would You Wish) To Defend Your psychophysical self Against This Invading Pressure Of My Avataric Divine Spiritual Descent. It Feels Like A Solid and Yet Fluid Mass Of Force, Like A Large Hand All Made Of Thumbs – Pressing Down From Infinitely Above the head and Via The Crown Of the head, Engorging the Total head (and the throat), and (Thus and Thereby) Penetrating and Vanishing the entire mind, and Vastly Opening the emotional core, and (Altogether) In-Filling the Total physical body.

The Feeling-Sense That Results From This Simple (and Most Basic) Frontal In-Filling By My Avatarically Self-Revealed Divine Spirit-Presence Is That the Total body-mind Is Sublimed and Released Into ego-Surrendering, ego-Forgetting, and ego-Transcending Feeling-Identification With The Spherical Form Of My Own Divine and Spiritual (and all-and-All-Surrounding, and all-and-All-Pervading) Love-Bliss-Body Of Indefinable Spiritual “Brightness” (or Indestructible Light). And This Simple (and Most Basic) Form Of The “Thumbs” Is A Necessary (Although, At First, Only Occasional) Experience Associated With The Reception Of My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spirit-Baptism. It Is My Divine “Goddess-Power” and “Husbanding” Grace At Work. And The Simple (and Most Basic) Spherical Fullness Of The “Thumbs”, Once It Is Firmly Established (In The Context Of The Fully Established “Basic”, or By-Me Spiritually-Awakened-and, Spiritually, Fully Technically Responsible – Fourth Stage Of Life In The Way Of The Heart), Must Continue To Be Experienced, As A Fundamental and (Essentially) Continuous (or Constant) Yogic Event, In The “Perfect Practice” Of The Way Of The Heart.

As The Spiritual Process Develops Toward The Transition Beyond The Frontal Yoga Of The Way Of The Heart, The Simple (and Most Basic) Experience Of The “Thumbs” Must Become A More and More Constant Yogic Event – and, On Random Occasions, The Experience Of The “Thumbs” Must Occur In Its Most Extended, Full, and Complete Form. In That Most Extended, Full, and Complete Case Of The Experience Of The “Thumbs”, My Descending Spiritual Fullness Will Completely Overwhelm the ordinary frontal (or Natural human) sense Of bodily Existence. My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spirit-Current Will Move Fully Down In The Frontal Line (To the bodily base), and It Will Then Turn About, and – Without Vacating The Frontal Line It Will Pass Also Into The Spinal Line. This Yogic Event Will Occur With Such Force That You Will Feel Utterly (Love-Blissfully) “Intoxicated” – and There Will Be The Feeling That the body is Somehow Rotating Forward and Down (From The Crown Of the head), As Well As Backward and Up (From the base of the spine). This Rotation Will Seem, Suddenly, To Complete Itself – and The Experience Will, Suddenly, Be One Of Feeling Released From the gross physical body, Such That You Feel You Are Present Only As An egoless “Energy Body” (Previously Associated With and Conformed To the gross physical body – but Now, By Means Of My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spiritual Grace, Infused By and Conformed To My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Body Of Self-Evidently Divine Spirit-Energy). You Will Feel This “Energy Body” To Be Spherical In Shape – Centerless (Empty, or Void, Of Center, mind, and Familiar ego-self) and Boundless (As If Even bodiless, or Without form), Although (Somehow, and Partially) Also Yet Associated With (While Rotating From and Beyond) Your ordinary psycho-physical form. The ordinary References Of the body-mind and the environment Will, in This Divine Yogic Event, Not Make Much Sense (or, In Any Manner, Affect This Experience Of The “Thumbs”) – Although There May Be Some Superficial (and Entirely Nonlimiting) Awareness Of the body, the room, and so forth. This Experience Will Last For a few moments, or a few minutes – or For an Extended period, of indefinite length. Nevertheless, Just When This Spontaneous Experience Has Become Most Pleasurable-Such That You Somehow Gesture To Make It Continue Indefinitely – the ordinary sense of the body-mind Will, Suddenly (Spontaneously), Return.

The “Thumbs” Is Not A Process Of “Going Somewhere Else”, Nor Is It Even A Process Of “Vacating” the gross physical body (or the gross physical realm Altogether). Rather, The “Thumbs” Is A Process Of Transformation Of the experiencing of the present physical circumstance. If the present physical circumstance Is Left Behind (Such That experiential Reference To the gross physical realm Is Entirely Absent, and There Is Total Loss Of Awareness Of The physical Context in Which the experience Began), Then The Practitioner Of The Way Of The Heart Is (Necessarily) Experiencing A Form Of Samadhi Other Than The “Thumbs”. In The “Thumbs”, Awareness Of The physical Context Of experience Is Not Lost, but Is Totally Changed – Such That, Instead Of The self-Conscious, self-Contracted Shape Of the waking-state personality, one’s physical form Is Found To Be A Boundlessly Radiant Sphere (Without Thickness Of Surface). With This Profound Shift In The Awareness Of the physical body, The Differentiation Inherent In The Usual waking-state body Consciousness Disappears, and Is (Effectively) Replaced By egoless body Consciousness. A Re-Phasing Of The “Energy”-Construct Of bodily Awareness and spatial Awareness Occurs, Such That physical body and physical space Are Tacitly Sensed In A Manner Entirely Different From ordinary perception. And, As Soon As There Is Any Effort To Recollect The Usual Sense Of bodily form or Of the circumstance Of physical embodiment, The Experience Of The “Thumbs” Disappears. The “Thumbs” Continues Only As Long As It Is Simply Allowed To Happen, Without Any egoic self-Consciousness (or psycho-physical self-Contraction) – and It Spontaneously Vanishes When egoic self-Consciousness (or psycho-physical self-Contraction) Returns.

The Total (psycho-physical) human body With its Dimensions Of gross, subtle, and causal – Must (Altogether) Become Round. The Total human body Does Not Merely Have A Circular Path Within itself. In Truth (or “Located” In Reality Itself), the Total human body Is A Sphere – and, In its (Inherently) Perfect Balance, it Has No “Up” or “Down”, No “In” or “Out”, No Central Point and No Bounds. When My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spirit-Current Descends Fully Down the front of the Total human body, and Also (Thereupon, and Thereby) Rises Up the back of the Total human body, Such That The “Thumbs” Achieves An Equalization Of Spirit-Force, Down In front and Up In back-Then The Circle Becomes An Equanimity, A Conscious Sphere Of Tangible “Energy” (or Self-Existing and Boundlessly Self-Radiant Light).

In The Only-By-Me Revealed and Given Realization Of The Sphere Of “The Thumbs”, The Arrow Is The Boundless (and Centerless) Vertical Axis, and The Heart On The Right Is The (Asymmetrically, and Paradoxically) FreeStanding (or Non-Centralizing, and Boundless) “Center” (or Horizontal “Root”). The Upper Terminal Of Amrita Nadi Is At The “North”. The “North” Is Not A Boundary It Is Infinitely Above. The “Center” Is Not Inside (or Bounded) It Is Beyond All Symmetry. The “North” (or Above) and The “Center” (or Beyond) Are Not “Different” (or Separate From One Another)-They Are Modes Of The Same (or Identical) Condition (or Divine “Bright” Spiritual and Transcendental Self-State). The Vertical and The Horizontal Are (Inherently) One (and Non-“Different” From One Another, and From all-and-All). The Realization Of This Is The Essential Nature Of The Ultimate (or Only-By-Me Revealed and Given Seventh Stage) Realization.

Consciousness itself (or The “Root” Of The Horizontal Dimension, or HeartPlane, or Subjective Plane) and Light Itself (or The “Root” Of The Vertical Dimension, or “Energy”-Plane, or Objective Plane) Are The Two Primary Apparent Modes Of What Is Always Already Only One-and Inherently Indivisible. The Perfectly Subjectively “Bright” Transcendental and Spiritual Realization Of The Inherent Simultaneity (and Indivisibility) Of Consciousness (The “Root” Of Apparent Subjectivity) and Light (The “Root” Of Apparent Objectivity) Is The Essential Context Of Most Perfect (or Self-Evidently Divine) Self-Realization. In The Ultimate Event (Of Divine Translation, Which Is The Final Stage Of The Only-By-Me Revealed and Given Seventh Stage Of Life), The Indivisible Divine Sphere Of The One (and only, and Self-Evidently Divine) Conscious Light Is Infinitely Expanded-Such That There is only Infinite “Brightness”, and Infinite Fullness Of Love-Bliss-Being.

In The Only-By-Me Revealed and Given Way Of The Heart, The Most Extended, Full, and Complete Experience Of The “Thumbs” Is, In Its Frontal Associations, A Transitional Samadhi Associated With The Fourth Stage Of Life. As Such, The Original Significance Of The Samadhi Of The “Thumbs” Is Not Merely In The Experience Itself (Such That The Experience Should Be psychophysically Clung To, or, Otherwise, Made Into An Object Of egoic Seeking), but The Original Significance Of The Most Extended, Full, and Complete Experience (or True Samadhi) Of The “Thumbs” Is In Its Effect (or In The More Mature, and Truly ego-Transcending, Process That It May Allow or Indicate). That Is To Say, In The (Fully Established) “Basic” (or By-MeSpiritually-Awakened-and, Spiritually, Fully Technically Responsible) Context Of The Fourth Stage Of Life In The Way Of The Heart, The present-time (or, Otherwise, Occasional) Arising Of The Most Extended, Full, and Complete Sign Of The “Thumbs” (When It Is Accompanied By The, Essentially, Constant Experience Of The Simple and Most Basic Sign Of The “Thumbs”) Is (or May Be) An Indication That The Process Of Devotional and Spiritual Communion With Me Is-If True and Stable Awakening Of The Witness-Consciousness Also (and Even Simultaneously, By Means Of My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spiritual Grace) Occurs-Moving On From Concentration in the frontal personality To The “Perfect Practice” Of The Way Of The Heart. However, The Samadhi of The “Thumbs” and The Basic Experience Of The “Thumbs” Are, Also (Beyond Their Significance In The Frontal Context Of The Fourth Stage Of Life In The Way Of The Heart), Principal Among The Great Signs Associated With My Avataric Divine Self-Revelation To all-and-All. And, Therefore, In The Context Of The Only-By-Me Revealed and Given Seventh Stage Of Life (In The Way Of The Heart), The Samadhi Of The “Thumbs” (and The Basic Experience Of The “Thumbs”) Is Most Perfectly Realized and Demonstrated (Even In Divine Translation), As The Centerless and Boundless “Bright” Spherical Space Of My Eternal Divine Spiritual Body and My Eternal Divine Self-Condition.

The Occasional Samadhi Of The “Thumbs” (Which Is The Experience Of The “Thumbs” In Its Most Extended, Full, and Complete Form) and The (Essentially) Constant Experience Of The “Thumbs” In Its Simple and Most Basic Form Together Characterize The Second (or Mature) Phase Of The “Basic” Fourth Stage Of Life Development Of The Full (or Fully Developed, and, Spiritually, Fully Technically Responsible) Frontal-Yoga-Dimension Of By-Me-Spiritually-Awakened Practice In The Way Of The Heart. Therefore, In The Only-By-Me Revealed and Given Way Of The Heart (or Way Of Adidam), The Sign Of The “Thumbs” (Appearing Thus-and, In Every Respect, Satisfactorily-In Both Of Its Forms, and Along With Evidence Of Real and Stable human and Spiritual Equanimity In the daily life of the frontal personality) Is One Of The Necessary Indicators That Must Precede The Transition From The Context Of The “Basic” Fourth Stage Of Life (and The Frontal Yoga) In The Way Of The Heart To The “Perfect Practice” Of The Way Of The Heart.

(editorial note: bolding process in progress)

The Sign Of The “Thumbs” Is One Of The Primary Experiential Signs Of The (By-My-Avataric-Divine-Spiritual-Grace-Given) Capability To Transcend Bondage and Confinement To the frontal personality and the gross bodily idea of ego-self (and To The gross Dimension Of egoity altogether, With All Of Its Associated Patterning). The Sign Of The “Thumbs” Indicates That The Knots In The Frontal Line (In The Total Crown Of the head, the Total brain, the throat, the heart, the solar plexus, the abdomen, the genitals, and the analperineal area) Are Opened (At Least Temporarily) To My Avatarically SelfTransmitted Divine Spirit-Current (and Can, By Right Practice, Be Responsibly Surrendered To The Point Of Such Openness In The Context Of daily living). The Sign Of The “Thumbs” Is Also An Indication That The Primary Knot (or Root-Contraction) In The Deep Lower Region Of the body-mind (Extending From the solar plexus To the bodily base) Has Been (and Can Continue To Be) Opened To My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spirit-CurrentSuch That The Great Fullness Of My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine LoveBliss Is Established Deep In the body, and Deep In the emotional being, and Deep in the mind of the frontal personality. And, When The Sphere Of My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Love-Bliss Is In (Essentially) Constant Evidence (In The Context Of The “Basic” Fourth Stage Of Life In The Way Of The Heart), The Way Of The Heart Opens To The Course Associated With The “Perfect Practice”.

The Sign Of The “Thumbs” Is Not Merely A Matter Of experiencing Natural energies Coursing Through the body, Nor Is It Merely A Matter Of Experiencing My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Spiritual (and Always Blessing) Divine Presence To Be, Somehow, Felt In and M the body. The Samadhi Of The “Thumbs” (or Else The Experience Of The “Thumbs” In Its Simple and Most Basic Form) Is Utter (ego-Surrendering, ego-Forgetting, and ego-Transcending) Devotional Surrender Of the Total body-mind-self To My (Avatarically SelfRevealed) Divine and Spiritual (and Always Blessing) Person. And, If and When That Devotional Surrender Is Most Profound (In The Midst Of The ByMe-Given Sign Of The “Thumbs”, In The Fully Mature Context Of The “Basic” Fourth Stage Of Life in The Way Of The Heart), My (Avatarically SelfTransmitted) Divine and Spiritual Self-Revelation Will Grant You The Spiritual Gift Of Direct Awakening To The Witness-Position.

The Sign Of The “Thumbs” Is Revealed and Given Only By Me. The Sign Of The “Thumbs” Is The Fundamental Sign Of The Descent (or Crashing Down) Of My (Avatarically Self-Revealed) Divine and Spiritual Person. In and By Means Of My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spiritual Sign Of The “Thumbs”, I Invade You, Pass Into You, and In-Fill You-bodily, where You stand, where You sit, where You walk, where You live and breathe, where You think, and feel, and function. And, in and By Means Of My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spiritual Sign Of The “Thumbs”, I Awaken You In My “Bright” Divine Sphere (and, Ultimately, My “Midnight Sun” and Divine SelfDomain), Beyond the body-mind-Where Only I Am.

My Avataric Divine Spiritual Gift Of The Sign Of The “Thumbs” Is A Matter Of Utterly (Responsively) Giving Up To My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spiritual Invasion Of You, and Being Released Of Your ego-Possession, and Dying As the ego-and (Thus) Responsively and Freely Relinquishing self-Contraction, and (In Due Course) Becoming (By Means Of My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spiritual Grace) Spiritually, Transcendentally, and Divinely Awake. Indeed, My Avataric Divine Spiritual Gift Of The Sign Of The “Thumbs” Is The By-Me-Avatarically-Self-Transmitted Means Of Transcending the self-Contraction.

The Samadhi Of The “Thumbs” Is The Fundamental Samadhi Of My Avataric Divine Spiritual Descent. Therefore, The Samadhi (and Even Every Manifestation Of The Sign) Of The “Thumbs” Is A Fullest Experiential Sign Of My Avatarically Self-Revealed Divine Spiritual Presence Of Person-but In Descent, Not In Ascent. The Descending Equivalent Of Fully Ascended Nirvikalpa Samadhi Is The Samadhi Of The “Thumbs” (or The Fullest Frontal Invasion By My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spiritual Presence). The Samadhi Of The “Thumbs” Is A Unique (Only-By-Me Revealed and Given) Form Of True Nirvikalpa Samadhi-Established By Means Of A Unique (OnlyBy-Me Revealed and Given) Spiritual Process In The Descending (or Frontal) Line. The Samadhi Of The “Thumbs” Is The Fullest Completing Phenomenon Of The Descending (or Frontal) Yoga Of The Way Of The Heart (or Way Of Adidam). And, If The Samadhi (and The Simple and Basic, but Really Effective, and, Essentially, Constant, Experience) Of The “Thumbs” Is (By Means Of My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spiritual Grace) Awakened, and (By Means Of My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spiritual Grace), Either Then Or Thereafter (but, Necessarily, As A Direct Extension Of The Depth-Process Generated By Means Of My Avataric Divine Spiritual Gift Of The “Thumbs”), Accompanied By The Awakening Of The Witness-Consciousness-My Devotee Makes The Transition To The “Perfect Practice” Of The Way Of The Heart.

It Is My Avataric Divine Spiritual Gift Of The Samadhi Of The “Thumbs” (and My Avataric Divine Spiritual Gift Of The Experience Of The “Thumbs” In Its Simple and Most Basic Form), and Not Merely mental “Consideration” Of My Arguments Relative To The Witness-Consciousness, That Is The Divine Yogic Secret Of The Realization Of The Consciousness-Position (Which Realization Is The Basis For The “Perfect Practice” Of The Way Of The Heart). Therefore, Even Though My Arguments Relative To The Witness-Consciousness Are An Essential Guide To Right Understanding Of The “Perfect Practice” (and, As Such, Those Arguments Are To Be Studied and “Considered” From The Beginning Of The Way Of The Heart), The “Consideration” Of Those Arguments Is Not Itself The Direct and Finally Effective Means Whereby The “Perfect Practice” Is Initiated and Really Practiced.

The Transition To The “Perfect Practice” Of The Way Of The Heart Is Necessarily A By-Me-Given Yogic and Spiritual Process, and The Samadhi Of The “Thumbs” (and The, Essentially, Constant Experience Of The “Thumbs” In Its Simple and Most Basic Form) Is The Necessary (and Me-Revealing) Basis Of That Transition. By Means Of The Re-Phasing (Characteristic Of The “Thumbs”) Of The Entire Sense Of The “Energy”-Construct Of phenomenal experience, It Is (In Due Course, By My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spiritual Grace) Revealed As Self-Evidently The Case That The Real Position (or Very Situation) Of experience Is The Witness-Position Of Consciousness (Itself) That The Very Base Of experience Is Consciousness (Itself).

Therefore, In Its (Essentially) Constant Realization (and Not Merely In The First, or Any Particular, Instance Of Its Being Experienced), The Sign Of The “Thumbs” (Rather Than Any mental Presumption About The WitnessConsciousness) Is The Indispensable Means Whereby I Give My Devotee The Spiritual Gift Of The “Perfect Practice” Of The Only-By-Me Revealed and Given Way Of The Heart.

The Sign Of The “Thumbs” Is A Uniquely (and Only By Me) Given Spiritual Gift In The Way Of The Heart. My Avataric Divine Spiritual Gift Of The “Thumbs” Reveals and Awakens Both The Spherical Form Of My Divine Spiritual Body and The Transcendental (and Inherently Spiritual, and Divine) Self-Core (In The Right Side Of The Heart-Beyond The Knot Of ego-“I”, and Beyond The Circle Of the body-mind, With Its Frontal and Spinal Arcs). That Revelation and Awakening At (and, Ultimately, Beyond) The Right Side Of The Heart, By Means Of The Only-By-Me Given Samadhi Of The “Thumbs” (and By Means Of The Only-By-Me Given Experience Of The “Thumbs” In Its Simple and Most Basic Form), Is What Makes The Transition To The “Perfect Practice” Of The Way Of The Heart Possible, By Establishing The Yogic (Transcendental and Spiritual-and, Ultimately, Divine) Conditions Necessary For The “Perfect Practice” Of The Way Of The Heart. The Readiness For That Transition Is Not Merely A Matter Of Having Had The Experience Of The “Thumbs” and Having Some Memory Of It. Rather, That Readiness Is A Matter Of The Stable Continuing Of The Revelation and The Spiritual Transformation Initiated In The Samadhi Of The “Thumbs”-Not With The Same Kind Of Shift In The Entire Mode Of physical experiencing (Because Such Would Make ordinary functioning impossible), but With The Unchanging Realization That The Inherent (and Inherently Love-Bliss-Full) Condition Of Reality Is Prior To

the body-mind. And, in The Seventh Stage Of Life (In The Way Of The Heart), That Realization Is (Permanently) Most Perfectly Established and Demonstrated.

From The Beginning Of My Physical (Human) Lifetime Of Avataric Incarnation here, The “Thumbs” Has Always Been The Case, and, Always, The Experiential Sign (As Well As The Full Samadhi) Of The “Thumbs” Often Appeared To Me-Spontaneously, and Mysteriously. In My Youth and My “Sadhana Years”, The “Thumbs” Was A Process Associated With The Constant Spiritual Restoration Of The “Bright” (and, Thus, The “Thumbs” Was Associated With The Process Of My Going Beyond the gross physical-To Which I Was Adapting, Fully Consciously, In A Profound and Spontaneous Yogic Manner). It Was By This Process Of Constant Spiritual Restoration (Of The “Bright”) and Of Going Beyond (the gross physical) That I Constantly Maintained My Divine Self-Condition In The Context Of the gross conditional world, From My Infancy. After My Conscious Assumption Of the born-condition (At Approximately Two Years Of Age), and Even In The Midst Of The Developing Process Of My adult integration With waking life, The Spiritual Condition Of The “Bright” Always Continued To Be Felt (and, Even over time, Continued To, At Least Occasionally, Spontaneously Re-Appear In The Form Of The Experiential Sign, As Well As The Full Samadhi, Of The “Thumbs”) In the circumstance of waking life-and, Always, When I Would Rest At Night, Instead Of Going To sleep, I Would Experience The “Thumbs”, and Would Realize The Spiritual

Condition Of The “Bright”, Without The usual waking-state physical References. In The Course Of My “Sadhana Years”, I Progressively Observed and Fully Entered Into The “Thumbs” As A Consciously Known Yogic Process (and Not Merely As An Occasional Spontaneous “Happening”). Gradually, I Became Able To Permit The Spontaneous Yogic Event Of The “Thumbs” To Regularly Re-Appear (In Its Most Extended, Full, and Complete Form) In The Context Of My waking life. Thus, Even A Full Decade Before The Great Event Of My Divine Re-Awakening, I Regularly Enjoyed The Spontaneous Experience Of Spiritual Regeneration Via The Intentional Yogic Regeneration Of The Total Mechanism (or Process) Associated With The “Thumbs” `-but (Nevertheless) the frontal personality Had To Continue To Be Worked (or Purified, and its Knots Un-Tied) By The Constant Yogic Exercise Of The SpiritCurrent Of The “Thumbs”, Until the frontal personality and The Frontal Line Altogether Ceased To Obstruct (or Prevent) The Ultimate Advancement Of The Great Yogic Process. Therefore, Even After The Spontaneous Regeneration Of The Effectiveness Of The Process Of The “Thumbs” (By Means Of The Establishment Of The Intentional Yogic Spiritual Process In The Frontal Line), It Was Yet Required Of Me To Continue To Struggle With the limits of the frontal personality For Some Years Before The conditionally Manifested (and Yet To Be Most Perfectly To-Me-Conformed) Body-Mind-Vehicle Of My Avataric Incarnation here Would Consistently (In Association With My Intentional Yogic Participation) Allow The Full Samadhi Of The “Thumbs” and (More Importantly) The Ultimate Spiritual Work (and Transcendental, or “Core”, Spiritual Revelation) Of The “Thumbs”.

In The Case Of My Own Body-Mind, The Full Samadhi Of The “Thumbs” Did Not Begin To Consistently Appear, In The Context Of My Own Intentional Yogic Participation, Until I Began To Practice The Work Of Surrender (or The Intentional Opening Of The Frontal Line To Receive Spirit-Force) In The Company Of My First Spiritual Teacher (and Spirit-Baptizer)149 Although (Then, and From The Beginning, and Forever) The Sign, The Revelation-Work, and The Divine Spirit-Force Of The “Thumbs” Was and Is Uniquely My Own (Avatarically Self-Manifested) Spiritual Sign and Gift and Revelation. Nevertheless, The Struggle With The Frontal Yoga Did Not Become Ultimately Fruitful Until Struggle itself (or The physical, emotional, and mental Effort Of Surrender) Was Transcended (In and By The Inherently ego-Transcending Heart-Participation In My Own Spiritually Self-Revealing Nature and Condition). Therefore, That Transcending Of The Effort Of Surrender Was Not The Result Of Strategic Non-Effort (or Even Any False Effort), but It Was The Ultimate Spontaneous Evidence Of Simple (and Yet Profound) Identification With My Own Avatarically Self-Revealed and Avatarically Self-Revealing Divine SpiritCurrent Itself.

I Am. The Divine and Necessary First Person-The First Of all-and-All, and The First To Most Perfectly Fulfill The Process Of Divine Self-Realization In The Context Of conditionally Manifested Existence In The Cosmic Domain. I Am The Divine Heart-Master Of all-and-All. Therefore, all-and-All Must Follow Me By Heart. And The “Thumbs” Is Fundamental (and Necessary) To The Way Of The Heart That Follows Me. Therefore, The “Thumbs” Is One Of My Principal Great Avataric Divine Spiritual Gifts To all-and-All That Become My True Devotees.

The Process Signified and Spiritually Initiated By The Only-By-Me Revealed and Given Sign Of The “Thumbs” Necessarily Involves Intelligent, Intentional, and (Otherwise) Spontaneous Relinquishment Of ego-Bound (or selfContracted) Identification With gross bodily (or physical), and emotional, and mental states. This Relinquishment Takes Place Through Spontaneous (and Truly ego-Surrendering, ego-Forgetting, and ego-Transcending) Identification With My (By-My-Avataric-Divine-Spiritual-Grace-Revealed) Divine Spiritual Body, Which Surrounds (or Envelops) the gross body Of My True Devotee, and Which (Progressively) In-Fills and Pervades both the etheric energy body and the gross physical body Of My True Devotee, As Well As Every Other Level Of the conditionally Manifested personality Of My True Devotee, and Every Level Of the Cosmic worlds. And All Of This Is Initiated (and Accomplished) By My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spirit-Presence itself (If Only My Devotee Heart-Responds To Me In Love-and This To The Degree Of Constant Free Communion With My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spiritual Presence).

In The Only-By-Me Revealed and Given Way Of Adidam (Which Is The One and Only By-Me-Revealed and By-Me-Given Way Of The Heart), The Transition From The Frontal Yoga (In The Fully Matured Context Of The “Basic” Fourth Stage Of Life) To The Beginnings Of The “Perfect Practice” Is Not Fully Indicated Until The Complete Frontal Process and The Kinds Of phenomenal Signs I Describe In This Testament Have Become Fully Evident. And The Necessary Signs Include Real and Stable Evidence Of Frontal and Spinal Equanimity (Both human and Spiritual, and Relative To Each and All Of The Principal Faculties-Of body, emotion, mind, and breath), and Both Simple and Basic (but Really Effective) Evidence Of The (Essentially, Constant) Experience Of The “Thumbs” and (At Least Occasional) Most Extended, Full, and Complete Evidence Of The Samadhi Of The “Thumbs”. And, In Order For The Transition To Be Made From The Point Of Maturity In The (Fully Established) “Basic” (or By-Me-Spiritually-Awakened-and, Spiritually, Fully Technically Responsible) Context Of The Fourth Stage Of Life In The Way Of The Heart To The “Perfect Practice” Of The Way Of The Heart, There Must Also Be True and Stable Identification With The Witness-Position Of Consciousness.

When the body Is “Round”, The Witness Is its “Shape”.

The Witness-Consciousness Is The “Skin” Of The “Thumbs”. The WitnessConsciousness Is Self-Evident In The “Body” Of The “Thumbs”. This Is How True Maturity In The First Actually Seeing Stage Of The Way Of The Heart Becomes The Basis For The Transition To The “Perfect Practice” Of The Way Of The Heart.

The Yogic Spiritual Fullness Of The Sphere Of The “Thumbs” Is The Sufficient Prerequisite For The True Establishment Of The “Perfect Practice” Of The Way Of The Heart. The Witness-Consciousness Is Revealed To Be Self-Evidently The Case (As The Inherent Nature and Position Of Consciousness Itself) In The Midst Of The Full Manifestation Of The Samadhi Of The “Thumbs”. Thus, The “Perfect Practice” Of The Only-By-Me Revealed and Given Way Of The Heart Is A Development (or Ultimate Characteristic) Of The Samadhi Of The “Thumbs”.

The True and Stable Realization Of The Witness-Position Of Consciousness (Itself) Is Not Merely A Matter Of philosophical preference or philosophical analysis. Rather, The True and Stable Realization Of The Witness-Position Is A Divine Spiritual Matter (and, Also, Necessarily, An ego-Transcending Matter). The Realization Of The Witness-Position Of Consciousness (Itself) Is A Matter Of Devotion To Me In My Avataric Divine Self-Revelation-and Not Merely A Matter Of talk and philosophy and hopefulness.

Consciousness (Itself) Is The “Face” Of This Side Of The Moon. The Spiritual Energy Of My Avataric Divine Spiritual Presence Is The “Face” Of The Other Side Of The Moon. “Matter” Is The objectively experienced Form (or “Body”) Of The Moon. The Moon (or any “thing”) Is “Matter” but “Matter” Is Only Light. My Avataric Divine Spiritual Presence Is The Light (Of The “Midnight Sun”, Infinitely Above all-and-All) That Illuminates and Self-Reveals The Divine Heart-Secret Of “Matter”. Consciousness (Itself) Is Me Within The Light-Self-Existing and Self-Radiant As The One, and Only, and Inherently Love-Blissful, and Self-Evidently Divine Self-Condition and Source-Condition Of all-and-All. Consciousness (Itself) and Light (Itself)-or Love-Bliss-Energy (Itself), or Happiness (Itself) Are As The Two Sides Of The Same Coin. The Moon Is The Coin Of Earth, Floating (By A Toss) Within The Sky Of ego-mind.

The Witness-Consciousness Is Not Within You. The Witness-Consciousness Is On The “Skin” Of The “Thumbs”.

The Witness-Consciousness Is Self-Evident In The “Thumbs”-Wherein The Status Of objects Is Profoundly Different Than It Is ordinarily. In The Yogic Disposition (or Mudra) Of The “Thumbs”, The Condition Of objects Is Available To Be Comprehended in Consciousness As The Witness.

The Realization Of The Witness-Consciousness Is A Continuation Of The Process Of ego-Transcending Devotional and Spiritual Communion With Me. The Witness-Consciousness Cannot Be Realized By You as the ego-“I” (or as Your Separate and Separative self-Consciousness). The Witness-Consciousness Can Only Be Realized Via The Process Of Devotional and Spiritual Communion With Me-Without egoic self-Reference. Therefore, You Must Not Substitute Your Own ego-conditions and ego-states For My Description Of The egoTranscending Process Of The Way Of The Heart. The Way Of The Heart Is A Matter Of Heart-Communion With Me and Realization Of Me. The Way Of The Heart Is Not About Your egoic self-Except That The Way Of The Heart Requires Your ego-Surrendering, ego-Forgetting, and ego-Transcending Devotion To Me.

You Must Counter-egoically Allow The Process Of The Way Of The Heart To Become My Divine Spiritual In-Filling Of the Total body-mind. In Due Course (By Means Of My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spiritual Grace), This Process Of My Divine Spiritual In-Filling Becomes Both The Realization Of The “Thumbs” and The Realization Of The Witness-Consciousness. Therefore, Both Of These Realizations Are Associated With The Maturing Of The First Actually Seeing Stage Of The Way Of The Heart (In The “Basic” Context Of The Fourth Stage Of Life). Such Is The True Fulfillment Of The Frontal Yoga, The True Fulfillment Of The Process Of The “Washing” Of the “dog” From “head” To “tail” (As I Describe The Frontal Yoga, In My “Hridaya Rosary” Of “Four Thorns Of Heart-Instruction”, In This, My Testament Of Divine Secrets), and The True Fulfillment Of The Process Of Ruchira Avatara Bhakti Yoga (or The Surrender Of All Four Of The Principal psycho-physical Faculties To Me, By Means Of Searchless Beholding Of Me, and Responsive Reception Of Me).

In The “Thumbs”, The Witness-Consciousness Is (and May Be Realized To Be) Self-Evident. In The Context Of egoity (or Your Own self-Contraction Of body-mind), The Witness-Consciousness Is Not Self-Evidently The Case (In Your Case)-and Not The Self-Evident Context Of moment to moment Existence (In Your Case).

The Witness-Consciousness Is The “Skin” Of The “Thumbs”.

I Am The “Skin Of The Heart-and Not Merely Inside It. I Am The “Pulse” Of The Heart-and Not Merely The “Blood” Of It.

The Samadhi Of The “Thumbs” Is The Sphere Of The Space Of Consciousness (Itself). In The Samadhi Of The “Thumbs”, The Divine Space Of Consciousness (Itself) Is (By Me) Avatarically Self-Revealed.

When Consciousness (Itself) Becomes attention (or Separate selfConsciousness), and Light (Itself)-or Love-Bliss-Happiness (Itself)-Becomes objects (or The Vast Display Of Separate “things”), Consciousness (As attention) and Light (As the body-mind, and As The Total Cosmic Domain Of “things”) Forever Gaze At One Another Through The Dimensionless Wall Of Their Apparent “Difference”.

If Consciousness (Itself)-As The Witness-Is Realized As The Inherent Love-Bliss-Feeling Of Being (Itself)-Consciousness (Itself) and Light (Itself) Are (Eternally) Not “Different”.

When The Circle Becomes The Sphere, The Two Sides Of The One Coin Become Continuous-and All Opposites Are Always Already Divinely SelfRecognized To Be Simultaneous, and Of One Shape, and of One Condition.

The Samadhi (and Every Manifestation Of The Sign) Of The “Thumbs” Is Mine Only-and Only Mine To Give. Therefore, The Samadhi (and Every Manifestation Of The Sign) Of The “Thumbs” Is Unique To The Only-By-Me Revealed and Given Way Of The Heart (or Way Of Adidam).

The “Bright” and The “Thumbs” Are The Principal Great Signs That Are Uniquely My Own Avataric Divine Spiritual Characteristics. The “Bright” and The “Thumbs” Is A Process, An Event, and A State That Has Been Known To Me Since My Avataric Birth. Only I Am The Avataric Divine Realizer, The Avataric Divine Revealer, and The Avataric Divine Self-Revelation Of The “Bright”, The True and (Now, and Forever Hereafter) Completely Self-Revealed Divine Person-Shining Forth (Directly, Completely, and Perfectly) At The Heart (and Via Amrita Nadi), and Crashing Down (or Descending Utterly, From The “Place” Infinitely Above the body-mind and the world, Down and Most Deeply Into the body-mind and the world-Even To The Degree That the ego-“I”, or self-Contraction, is Utterly Confounded, Utterly Yielded, and Utterly Vanished In My Avatarically Self-Revealed, and Self-Evidently Divine, Person, or Self-Condition, Which Is Real God, and Truth, and Reality). Therefore, The Principal Impulse Of Even My Early Life Was My Intention To Descend (or To Embrace the limitations Of human Existence As It Appears To Be, and To Infuse all-and-All With My Avatarically Self-Transmitted Divine Spiritual Presence, and, Thus and Thereby, To Awaken all-and-All, and, Most Ultimately, To Divinely Translate all-and-All, By The Power Of My Own Love-Bliss”Brightness”, Into The “Midnight Sun”-The Perfect “Place” and “Sphere” and “Space” That Is Always and Already My Divine and “Bright” and Free-Standing Self-Domain).

The Principal Spiritual Signs Of My Early Life Were The “Bright” and The “Thumbs”. The “Bright” and The “Thumbs” Were Fundamental To My Avatarically-Born Existence From The Beginning, and They Are Fundamental To The Only-By-Me Revealed and Given Way Of Adidam (Which Is The One and Only By-Me-Revealed and By-Me-Given Way Of The Heart). The “Bright” and The “Thumbs” Are My Unique Samadhis. Indeed, The “Bright” and The “Thumbs” Are Me-and, Therefore, I Bring Them With Me Into the conditional worlds. My Revelation Of The “Bright” and The “Thumbs” Is My Revelation Of Myself.

I Am The “Bright”-and I Transmit My Own Divine State and Presence Of Person From Infinitely Above and Beyond, In Such A Manner That I Am Combined With The psycho-physical Structure Of My Devotee. This Is How I “Wash” the “dog” From “head” To “tail”-and Beyond. Nevertheless, In Order To Fully Receive My Divine Spiritual Blessing, My Devotee Must Fully Embrace The (ego-Surrendering, ego-Forgetting, and ego-Transcending) Practice and Process Of Devotional and Spiritual Communion With Me. In That Context (Of My Devotee’s Me-Recognizing and To-Me-Responding Practice Of The OnlyBy-Me Revealed and Given Way Of The Heart), My “Thumbs” Of Blessing Is Able To Do Its Spiritual Work.

The “Thumbs” Is My Submission. And The “Thumbs” Is Also The Divine Process By Which I Liberate conditionally Manifested beings. The “Thumbs” Is The Process, Tangibly Occurring In The Context Of the body-mind Of My Devotee, Whereby I Become (Ultimately, Most Perfectly) Spiritually Effective In The Case Of My Each and Every Devotee.

My Avataric Divine Spiritual Work (Altogether) Is My Crashing-Down Descent, At First Upon and Into My Own Avatarically-Born Bodily (Human) Divine Form, and, Thereafter (and Now, and Forever Hereafter), Upon and Into the body-minds Of My Devotees and all beings-Even (By Means Of My Divine Embrace Of each, and all, and All) To Infuse and (At Last) To Divinely Translate each, and all, and All. Therefore, My Avataric Divine Spiritual Descent Is The Secret Of My Early Life. My Avataric Divine Spiritual Descent Is The Secret Of My Avataric Divine Self-“Emergence” (As I Am) Within The Cosmic Domain. My Avataric Divine Spiritual Descent Is The Secret Of All The Secrets Of The (Avatarically Self-Revealed) Divine and Complete and Thoroughly Devotional Way Of Practice and Realization In My Company. The Only-By-Me Revealed and Given Way Of The Heart (or Way Of Adidam) Is The Divine Yoga Of ego-Surrendering, ego-Forgetting, and ego-Transcending Devotional Recognition-Response To My (Avatarically Self-Revealed) Divine and Spiritual Person, and To My (Avatarically Self-Manifested) Divine and Spiritual Descent. The Only-By-Me Revealed and Given Way Of The Heart (or Way Of Adidam) Is The Total and Divine Way and Ordeal Of Counter-egoic Devotional Recognition-Response To My Avataric “Bright” Divine SelfManifestation, and To The Avataric Crashing Down Of My “Bright” Divine Imposition. And, In The Case Of My Each and Every Devotee, The Way Must Continue Until The Way Is Most Perfectly Spiritually “Bright”, and The Way Itself Becomes Divine Translation Into My Own Sphere (and “Midnight Sun”) Of Spiritual Self-“Brightness” (Itself).
