Reflections...

That was a highly satisfying weekend. I feel I am happier, learning and growing, especially in a spiritual standpoint. Thanks Swamijis and everyone for all your conscious, sub/unconscious contributions. Reminded me of one of the verses from Adi Shankara Bhagavat Pada's work, Baja Govindham which I would like to quote here:

satsaNgatve nissNgatvaM

nissaNgatve nirmohatvam

nirmohatve nishchalatattvaM

nishcalatattve jiivanmuktiH

Interpretation:

From Satsangh comes non-attachment, from non-attachment comes freedom from delusion, which leads to self-settledness (steadfastness). From self-settledness (steadfastness) comes Jeevan Mukti (liberation in life). (http://www.karnatik.com/c1824.shtml)
