Satguru Darshan

July 1, 2012

Click on the above photo to download the high resolution version for your archives. Happy Satguru Purnima.

Because Self Realization must be experienced in a physical body, the soul cycles back again and again into flesh to dance with Śiva, live with Śiva and ultimately merge with Śiva in undifferentiated oneness. Yea, jīva is actually Śiva. The Vedas explain, 'As water poured into water, milk poured into milk, ghee into ghee become one without differentiation, even so the individual soul and the Supreme Self become one.' Aum Namaḥ Śivāya.

– Sivaya Subramuniyaswami
