This is where we have to arrive—at absolute oneness. Our heart merges into His heart. When that happens, the only thing left is divine love, and even that love merges into love, and that love merges into the absolute Source, which has no name, which has no form….Even a spark of that love is a great blessing. Even a spark of that love can change our entire life. ~ Gurumayi Chidvilasananada

When the scriptures and the sages tell us “dissolve your identification with the body and the mind,” they don’t mean give them up. How can we give up our bodies or our minds? After all, God gave these things to us. It’s just that we have to expand our awareness a little bit beyond what we are seeing and thinking. That is what gives us the experience of the Self, that is what gives us the experience of love, that is what takes us deeper and deeper inside. When you really see beyond all the senses, all the bodies, all the objects, what you discover is the one thing that is within all of this. And that is energy, it is love. And to feel that love, wherever we are, we contemplate and we meditate. ~ Gurumayi Chidvilasananda
