Mamsanī Muhmīmf

Shūm-Tyēīf Meditation for the Month of May

One of our most powerful mamsanī is simshūmbīsī», nīīmf», kaīf». The wavy line represents awareness flowing—nīīmf». Awareness flowing from one area of the mind to another is called nīīmf». Here it flows from the fourth dimension, where simshūmbīsī» is, into the seventh dimension, where awareness is completely aware of itself—kaīf». This mamsanī you can live with all of the time. Carry it with you on a little card in your pocket all month long. It’s the easiest one, the most vital one and one of the most powerful. Feel the power within your own spine when you meditate on simshūmbīsī». The mamsanī tells us that until we are aware of being aware in the beautiful bliss of kaīf» where awareness does not move, because it is so centered within itself, we must constantly be centered in simshūmbīsī». Whenever you are not feeling quite up to par, remember this mamsanī and move awareness into simshūmbīsī». Sit, breathe, become aware of simply being aware of these inner energies deep within the spine. These energies come from the central source of it all. Then feel yourself going in and in and in, into the seventh-dimensional area of the mind, kaīf», being aware of simply being aware. This state is not beyond your reach. It does take a little bit of quieting down, however; but not a great deal of spiritual unfoldment is needed. It is very easy to attain kaīf». Just try. You will see for yourself just how easy it can be. Note: In this mamsanī illustration, kaīf» is written in stylized, artistic form, not the formal spelling.§
