position at that point and wait! Observing and waitingare the two most important faculties mind needs at thisjuncture. These two faculties are also of great help in theobjective world for peaceful living. Keep observing thatpoint of pulsation as much as you can. When it unfolds,it makes a double sound. The sound is similar to so ham.Observe the threshold of centripetal and centrifugalfunction! That is the door to the temple of wisdom. Waitat that door, be patient. Wait as much as you can. Waitingthere, observing the door recedes the mind from all itstensions. Reach this point in every contemplation! Waitand observe! Gradually you will realise that on the otherside of the door there is a great chamber of light.When your mind is clean and open at the appointedhour, the door opens and you enter. Buddha did so.Jesus did so. Every initiate did so. When once you movethrough, you encounter the golden light of the temple.It is a golden temple, your house, where you can rest,unmindful of the objectivity. In this temple you havesubtle dimensions, you hear and see different from whatyou see and hear in the outer. It is a different world. Itis the world within the world. It is subtle and not filledwith gross matter as the objectivity. Learn to stay there!Staying there, you realise all the gifts of wisdom. It isnot so much gathering of wisdom. When realised, it isaround you. It is with the help of this wisdom that youmove forward. When you have the touch of the energyof purity that exists in the chamber of the heart, youtend to gain a pure heart. Your actions thereafter areone of love and purity. Love does not mean personalitylove. It is love that transmits itself unconditionally intothe surroundings, regardless the beings and things thatare surrounding you *.In this state mind stays absorbed in its source andlearns all from a different dimension. A lot can be saidof this state, but for the moment this is sufficient.This is the practice one needs to do for contemplation.One can also get into it when one proposes it while goinginto sleep. Sleep is an unconscious entry into the sourceof mind. Practice of this is a conscious merging into theheart. When one merges into the source of mind, therespiration ceases, but the pulsation remains. Thereforescriptures call this state as ‘Prana regulated’, which inSanskrit is said as ‘Prana – yama’. So the outer Prana isregulated, the subtle and inner Prana is at work.*** You may refer to the booklet “On Love”, by K.
