And Now I See


And Now I See

(sonnet)

And now I see that all is being done.

And still I know, and still, I am the known.

My I, unchanging, now knows I am One.

What was before, that dream bird now has flown.

Can it be true that I was ever born?

That I am you and you are only me?

That knowing Me in each one, I am shorn

Of I as separate, and now am free?

I wonder at the small I’s illusion,

And wonder at the vastness of my I.

When all is Me, what was that confusion?

I am free, unborn, like infinite sky!

Live as your Guru, live the blissful One,

For now you see that all is being done.

This sonnet appeared within minutes, almost without thinking. I was about to work on my Bhagavad Gita commentary when the first line appeared in my mind and I realized it was in perfect iambic pentameter. Subsequent lines appeared as clear as day, only a few moments of rearrangement and—all was done.

Introduction to Space Light

I am starting these blog entries with some issues of my original Space Light offerings. Back in 1999, inspired by my newly acquired email account, I offered to send out emailed issues of writings I was doing on meditation and the philosophy of Yog to people I thought might be interested in receiving them. These writings tended to be on topics of yogic Self-knowledge that I chose to explore mixed in with snippets of satsangs with Guru-ji, Swami Shyam. Since much of the time I was musing in these writings, I later called them just that, musings.

So, I am beginning this blog with some of those early Space Lights.

With Knowledge Love Light,

Brijendra
