Hamsa; Meet Your Self


You are not lonely when you are alone; you are lonely when you search for many relationships, yet have no relationship with your Self.

If you have not met your Self, you are in for a marvelous surprise.

It is like the Hamsa swan wearily circling, searching for a resting place, and finally settling upon its own reflection in the still lake.

She thinks, "Who is this divine Swan who welcomes me into his own breast?" not knowing that she alights in the clear mirror of her Soul.

'Hamsa' is Sanskrit for 'swan'; at the same time, it means 'soul.' It is also the Upanishadic mantra, 'Ham-Sa,' which means I Am the Divine.

Breathing in 'Aham,' feel the thrill of golden life invigorate your own dear heart.

Breathing out, 'Sah,' surrender to the boundless Presence who first breathed your existence.

Who are you, really? You are the diamond effulgence where the syllables dissolve, the ocean where sun and moon kiss, where every creaturely reflection merges with the ray of its creator.

Why wait until you die?
