માધ્યમ બની રહે ...

બુદ્ધિ પણ ઉચ્ચતમ સ્તરે
નીરવ નિર્ભય શાંત
ઇન્દ્રિયની આવનજાવન પરે
ન વમળવત્ ન સૂત્રધાર.

ન પ્રતિકાત્મક ન આક્રમણે
ચેતાપુંજ સંગ સ્થિર તૈયાર
ગ્રહણેન્દ્રિયો ગ્રાહ્ય ઉર્ધ્વે
મન અંકુશમય, ચૈત્ય પહેરેદાર.

દરેક કણ, કોષમાં ઉતરે
વિશેષ જ્ઞાન, યોગ્ય સંચાર.
બુદ્ધિ માધ્યમ બની રહે
ચાતક - નિષ્ઠ પક્વ વિદ્વાન.

પ્રભુ...તવ ચરણે...

... the knowledge we have to arrive at is not truth of the intellect; it is not right belief, right opinions, right information about oneself and things, that is only the surface mind's idea of knowledge. To arrive at some mental conception about God and ourselves and the world is an object good for the intellect but not large enough for the Spirit; it will not make us the conscious sons of Infinity. Ancient Indian thought meant by knowledge a consciousness which possesses the highest Truth in a direct perception and in self-experience; to become, to be the Highest that we know is the sign that we really have the knowledge..... For the individual to arrive at the divine universality and supreme infinity, live in it, possess it, to be, know, feel and express that one in all his being, consciousness, energy, delight of being is what the ancient seers of the Veda meant by the Knowledge.

“The subsequent transformation of the intellect is possible because all the action of the intellect derives secretly from the supermind, each thought and will contains some truth of it however limited and altered by the inferior action of the intelligence.”

“The transformation can be brought about by the removal of the limitation and the elimination of the distorting or perverting element. This however cannot be done by the heightening and greatening of the intellectual activity alone; for that must always be limited by the original inherent defects of the mental intelligence. An intervention of the supramental energy is needed that can light up and get rid of its deficiencies of thought and will and feeling. This intervention too cannot be completely effective unless the supramental plane is manifested and acts above the mind no longer from behind a lid or veil, however thin the veil may have grown, but more constantly in an open and luminous action till there is seen the full sun of Truth with no cloud to moderate its splendour. it is not necessary, either, to develop the intellect fully in its separateness before calling down this intervention or opening up by it the supramental levels. The intervention may come in earlier and at once develop the intellectual action and turn it, as it develops, into the higher intuitive form and substance.”
