Asmita


Drg darsana saktyoh ekatmatevasmita


False-identification is confusing the nature of the seer or Self, with the nature of the instrument of perception.  In other words, false identification happens when we mistake the mind, body, or senses for the true Self.

- The Yoga Sutra by Patanjali, Book 1I, Aphorism 6

Hridaya


“Even so large as the universe outside, is the universe within the lotus of the heart. Within it are heaven and earth, the sun, the moon, the lightning, and all the stars. Whatever is in the macrocosm is in the microcosm also.”
