Song of Samadhi  (English, Paperback, Bibhuti Bhusan Mohanty)

This book in unequivocal terms brings the magical spell of realization as it progresses to truth. Little 'I' outgrows cosmos; 'I' is unconscious during merger. It affirms our eternal existence beyond the ephemeral pools of emotions, flesh, and blood. It affirms "World is in me". On descent from the indescribable Nirvikalpa little 'I' returns a different 'I'(aware); Paradoxically, 'I' now plans to destroy its former 'false Self'; Awestruck and intoxicated it eagerly waits for Mahasamadhi; This very real looking world is seen floating inside as a bunch of appearances. Divine inebriation which can't be matched by any liquor & opulence, lingers whole day; The unified Me sees whole external nature entering it & embracing it from within; No physical laws of science apply in that inebriated state; There gravity doesn't apply, because all nature is one unified whole including one's tiny body, and there is no question of two separate bodies(tiny or big) pulling each other; Whole nature is seen floating inside; Whole being is thrilled and absorbed by the mesmerizing tune of union; Ecstasy & rapture abounds; A divine forgetfulness overwhelms the jiva; All in rhythm, all in joy. Knowledge of soul is hidden from senses, mind, &ego by the power of Maya. Millions perish in cave unattended, and yet millions join the journey! Such is the pull of truth; And the master who breaks the shackles is the one with "indomitable will to see truth". Yes, Atman is & this cosmos is mithya.
