VEDIC EXPRESSIONS 4

The verses of the Veda exist in the collapse of fullness (the kshara of 'A')
in the transcendental field, the Self,
In which reside all the Devas, the impulses of creative intelligence,
the Laws of Nature responsible for the whole manifest universe.
He whose awareness is not open to this field,
what can the verses accomplish for him?
Those who know this level of reality
are established in evenness, wholeness of life.
Âk Veda 1.164.39

yo j;g;r tmOc" k;myNte
Yo jågåra tam ®icha˙ kåmayante
He who is awake, the richas seek him out.

Agni has come to disappear. What is gained is for offering.

VEDIC EXPRESSIONS 7

Go together, speak together, know your minds to be functioning together
from a common source, in the same manner as the impulses of creative
intelligence, in the beginning, remain together united near the source.

Integrated is the expression of knowledge, an assembly is significant in
unity, united are their minds while full of desires. For you I make use of
the integrated expression of knowledge. By virtue of unitedness and by
means of that which remains to be united, I perform action to generate
wholeness of life.

United be your purpose, harmonious be your feelings, collected be your
mind, in the same way as all the various aspects of the universe exist in
togetherness, wholeness.
Âk Veda 10.191.2-4

I bow down to him who breathes out the Veda
and creates the universe from it,
remaining uninvolved, and who is the cherished shrine
of pilgrimage for all the streams of knowledge.

The Self stirs with an intention. Together with the intellect, it takes a
direction, and engages the mind. The mind strikes the fire of the body,
which in turn drives out the air. The air, moving within the lungs, causes
the emergence of subtle sound, which becomes sound—svaram—the
reverberation of the Self.
Påˆin¥ya Shikshå 6-7
(translation based upon Maharishi’s
comments)
