Harry ji, stick to the meaning of a word. I think it will avoid a lot of confusion in some of your conversations. Naam = name, yes it is more profound when you meditate on it but it is still a name. You meditate on Naam, The Name. You call it out, speak with fear and love. You cannot be IN the name unless you started meditating on it and literally find yourself, your sense of Self to be in the name you were speaking out i.e. the collapse of subject-object (you-name) duality. I am pretty sure you are not referring to this phenomenon ...or are you? Even if you were you would simply call it meditating on Naam.


Similarly on a different thread, you referred to Hukam as consonance. It is not consonance. It is a command. Your willingness to obey it, to not put up any resistances is consonance. Consonance is hukam rajai chalna. With meditation this becomes easier to do.


Now I am actually curious about your experience of meditation, as you described in this thread and previously in other threads. I have some questions. Maybe I can learn something from you in this area.



1. Does it relieve your suffering for the day or week or are you almost always free from suffering to notice?



2. Do you experience the planets and eagle eye view with eyes closed or eyes open? or both? How does it change with different positions, bodily movements, eyes open vs eyes closed, etc..



3. Can you land on a planet in a different galaxy? How do you travel from one planet to the next?



4. What are the voices you hear? What are they saying/singing?



5. How many hours exactly? What's the longest time?


6. What are the bodily sensations that arise during your experiences?


7. Who is Harry during this experience?


8. You speak highly of seva. How many hours of seva do you do per week? How is your experience of that? What is your longest seva session?


Cheers
