The Journey of Non-Duality

: Nothing of my external being remains hidden from you;
for you have pierced the veils of my heart and grasped my entire existence.

: What has become knowable only to you;
no one else has found this deep feeling except through your consciousness.

: Your touch pervades my body and soul;
with every breath, every exhalation, I feel your rhythm.

: That part whose futile disposition has troubled you;
my external audacity that has pained you is merely physical delusion.

: That inertia exists only in my externality;
for within my soul you are eternally awake.

: But in my soul the distinctiveness of that feeling is abundant enough;
which can perceive you in the deepest sweetness.

: Which can devour your specialized feeling of 'suffering';
for my spiritual love seeks to absorb your sorrow and transform it into peace.

: Undoubtedly...
I have been able to enter the depths of your self-surrender.

: I am aware of this self-surrender, this possessed form of yours;
the way you are consuming yourself is a noble self-sacrifice.

: Which you continue to bear in your own soul to an unbearable degree;
you bear this lover's torment in the form of Brahman.

: Yet amazingly, it can manifest only in inevitable reaction alone;
this feeling is like a natural self-occurrence that cannot be forced into expression.

: That is, only through your external touch;
that inner anguish is unveiled through your touch.

: That enchanting fragrance pervading your embodied soul;
it stirs the depths of my soul.

: In its feeling my soul is bewitched by unbearable pulsations;
your existence enchants me into a spiritual realm of imagination.

: This part of your heart is surrounded by certain invisible feelings;
feelings that are not external but reveal themselves only in inner seeking.

: Whose exploration is ready to awaken only at my touch;
that feeling has begun to stir at my spiritual call.

: How eager do you think your inner vision is to awaken it?
Are you prepared to enter that inner chamber?

: Tremendously!
My heart calls to you, to awaken those murmured memory-traces.

: For there lie our memorials;
which remain as witnesses of spiritual touch.

: Whose witness is our bodily touch;
we have left marks on each other's existence.

: This memory-saga holds greater dignity in your soul;
you nurture it in your heart like a penance.

: In whose blazing you are consumed;
this feeling burns you in the fire of the soul.

: It can remove all fatigue from your external soul;
only in the silent waves of my remorse.

: Only the repentance of my profound pulsation;
which can pacify your wounded heart.

: The expansion-time of your perfectly developed intense imagination is extraordinary;
your inner realm of imagination is boundless, yet solitary.

: Which continues remembering only my feeling called 'separation';
on the canvas of your imagination I am absent, yet present in the depths of your heart.

: How much do you think this sorrowful mood of yours will affect my external beauty?
Will your grief cast shadows on my form?

: External influence is minimal; do not be disturbed.
This spiritual connection cannot be damaged by external appearance.

: Even its traces cannot wound the soul through imagination;
what leaves the soul untouched cannot be blurred by imagination's smoke.

: How much time do you think it might take to transcend the boundaries of your external touch?
How far does your patience extend on this path of unification?

: Is it perhaps resolved only to bring about the union of our external beings?
Are you only yearning for external union?

: Certainly not.
The power your soul has gained in my worship has transcended the limits of externality.

: In your special worship, in the absorption of extraordinary empowered feeling,
your heart is so deeply initiated that it harmonizes with the tune of my soul.

: Through this transcendent ability to place directly from my external touch into your own soul,
you have assimilated my love without externality.

: This chamber of your heart is surrounded by extraordinary feeling called 'emotion', preserved in enchanting fragrance;
within your heart a divine emotion envelops me.

: Why not then consider dedicating yourself to powerful self-surrender in the eloquence of this chamber?
Your soul is ready, but does fear hold you back?

: This static mood of yours continues to worry me;
your coldness makes my soul melancholy.

: Why this deep revelation of your pain toward my heart?
Is your suffering silently calling to me?

: The clear intention of entering this chamber without hesitation has overwhelmed me;
the yearning for your certain presence stirs my heart.

: At this moment our supreme soul is eager to concentrate in special prayer;
at this moment our consciousness together is absorbed in the pursuit of divine attainment.

: Certainly, there is no longer any scope for delay.
This moment of union can bear no more postponement.

: In your spiritual blossoming you have willingly given me all touch of your divine power;
you have given yourself completely to me.

: Your divine knowledge is to be considered only pure, true, worthy of reverent acceptance;
your knowledge is the most trustworthy refuge of my heart.

: For your knowledge it is announced that in this worship the exceptional form of our specialized feeling will become more manifest;
our union is about to assume a new spiritual form.

: That is, my specialized feeling 'suffering' is about to take form in the friendship of dissolution,
my suffering is now taking the form of a spiritual breaking.

: Which is bound in the enchantment of sensitive feeling called 'emotion';
this suffering, trapped in emotional bonds, has become deeper.

: Certainly, which makes my specialized feeling tremendously restless in possession;
my entire being is stirred and overwhelmed by this.

: Furthermore, your specialized feeling is about to take form in the obsession of intense feeling called 'separation';
your heart is now soaked in the pain of beloved's absence.

: At the beginning of imagination I offer charming cordial greetings
At the start of this spiritual journey I dedicate to you from my heart.

: "O magnanimous Supreme Soul, your soul-contemplating gentle pulsation, engaged in limitless yoga-practice to manifest my existence, which is enriched by the purity of my specialized feeling called 'love';
my love itself is my practice—which seeks to dissolve itself in your consciousness.

: The supreme feeling of this universe being excessive in your Supreme Soul,
you are that ultimate experience, the final destination of all love.

: Your enchanting resonance engages my soul in the current of unknown dissolution toward transcendence;
your tune takes me to the highest ecstasy of the soul.

: Coming into the presence of the Supreme Soul absorbed in your non-dual disposition has become possible only through your willing acceptance of me;
your intention to accept has united us.

: Undoubtedly my sixth sense is eager to receive you;
my invisible consciousness is drawn toward you.

: For though you possess all feelings, your specialized feeling's intimate nurturing has enchanted me;
your deep feeling has silently conquered me.

: In your heart, my presence advances steadily;
your heart is now my dwelling place.

: Which makes me firmly determined to reach the excellence of all feelings;
your love drives me toward the peak of completeness.

: Your location is not in form, not elsewhere, but only in my soul;
you are nowhere else, you are within me.

: We are not separate in any way;
we are one, bound in eternal, endless union.

: Certainly. Our destination is the same.
Our journey is not separate, it is the flowing current of the same Brahma-path.
