Summer Sadhu Paksha Begins Today

August 2, 2009

Sadhu Paksha Day One

The monks are on retreat.

The Self, or Parasiva, is an experience only after it has been experienced. Yet, it is not an experience at all, but the only possible nonexperience, which registers in its aftermath upon the mind of man.

– Sivaya Subramuniyaswami
