Epilogue: The Secret of Realization
The Essence of Meditation
A free rendering of the Bhagavad Gita , chapter eight,
verses eleven through thirteen by Da Free John
(1) I will tell you in a few words the exact and secret
meditative Process, whereby those who transcend the
independent self-illusion, or the desire for experience,
Realize the Eternal and Divine Condition.
(2) Those who Love Me, those who Commune with Me through
every function of the body-mind, and in the process of every
action, under all circumstances, transcend all of the
possibilities for experience by uncovering the root of
attention in the heart. They do this by a process of
intuitive self-observation, and growth in self-mastery,
relative to the functions of the body-mind, above the heart
as well as below the heart.
(3) When absorption of the mind, or attention, becomes
steady in the heart, or direct intuition of the Unqualified
Consciousness, then the tendency and direction of the Bodily
Current of Life spontaneously reverses. In this manner, the
internal Vibratory Force of the body-mind becomes polarized
toward the upper limits of the brain, or to the Prior and
All-Pervading State of the Universal Radiance, rather than
to the subjective internal and external experiential
modifications of the independent body-mind.
(4) One who thus abides in the intuition of the Self in
the heart, surrendered even bodily into the Radiance of
Eternal Life, is suddenly and then perfectly Awakened as the
true Self, the Radiant Heart and Divine Domain that
Eternally Transcends the World of Changes.
