Star Blossoms
“When you find that your soul, your heart, every wisp of inspiration, every speck of the vast blue sky and its shining star blossoms, the mountains, the earth, the whipporwill and the bluebells are all tied together with one cord of rhythm, one cord of joy, one cord of unity, one cord of spirit, then you shall know that all are but waves in His cosmic sea.”
Paramahansa Yogananda in “Metaphysical Meditations,” p. 36

This image is an interesting blend of soft colors. The yellow streaks look like meteorites. ๐

Thank you so much for sharing this thought of Advaita Vedanta.
Being a part of the Vedanta tradition, Advaita Vedanta believes in the non-duality principle, which says that the individual self (Atman) and the universal self (Brahman) are not different in and of themselves. This idea is related to the principle of complementarity in quantum mechanics, which says that some pairs of properties are opposites and cannot be measured at the same time with any level of accuracy. Complementarity, much like Advaita Vedanta, urges individuals to transcend dualistic thinking. It forces us to reassess our traditional understandings of separateness and adopt a more holistic viewpoint on reality.
Very happy to see your post after a long time.
Best wishes.
Regards
Namaste

Thank you so much for your elucidating email. Advaita Vedanta is coming at me from the Universe, explaining what I felt before. Just getting acquainted with the whole concept. Coming at me from people I know and books I am reading and I am so happy to hear it coming from you!! BAHUT DHANAYAWAAD! Namaskar! ๐๐ฝ

I know very few phrases in Hindi. Studied it for a short time and my Hindi teacher became a friend and now teaches me Hinduism. The devotional path. Glad to know we are on the same path but, as I understand, you are on the path of inquiry. Not sure I am right about this. I have SO much to learn and so little time left. Anyhow I thank you very much for clarifying things for me.๐๐ฝ

I always look forward to your posts and they never disappoint. The colours and shapes in your watercolour work really nicely for a meditation. It’s also really calming to think that we and everything on earth, are all part of a greater spiritual realm. ๐

I totally resonate here, Ellen! Inter-connectivity is something I deeply feel inside of me. It’s something rooted deep down my soul. Thank you for sharing such precious words. Yogananda was a quite a master. I appreciate his teachings very much. Blessings and light to you, my friend ๐ ๐๐๐ป

Ellen, this quote from Paramahansa Yogananda beautifully illustrates the profound unity and interconnectedness of all life. It reminds us that when we align with the rhythm of the universe and embrace the joy and spirit within, we recognize that everything is part of a greater cosmic whole. โค๏ธ๐๐ท
