Mother Kills Infant, Eats Brain

I am a strong Believer in the universal Consciousness, loosely called by Henri Bergson as elan Vital.

it is a simple concept.

There is Universal Consciousness , what separates Consciousness, yours and Mine, is Time and Space.

Indian Philosophy has extensive treatises on this,Chit.

In practical life, we can recall instances, when we come across something, say a word , it keeps on cropping up the whole day;you think of something ardently , the information you seek comes to you from the least expected quarters.

I shall post on this Topic in detail, its philosophical interpretations.

Now to some thing ore mundane.

I just posted about a Dog that lost its face for saving children and how Monkeys grieve for a dead monkey.

Saasmita Samadhi Yoga Final Stage?

This Consciousness appears at the individual level because of non Knowledge,Avidya.

(In Indian Philosophy, Knowledge is defined as the removal of ignorance)

Once Ignorance is removed knowledge of Reality ,nay, Reality dawns.

Those who attain the Saasmita Samadhi are called 'Prakritilayar', 'one who s in tune with Nature'

Here, of the three Gunas or dispositions(I use the normal meaning, not the term in a Philosophical sense), only the Sathva , pure, clear,remains.

In Savitraka Samadhi, Sathva, Rajas and Tamas are present, but controlled.
