Simple & Simply

Posted on Updated on

 

Simple & Simply

It is a Simple thought

Simply think

You are not the Simple one

It’s Simple, that

You are Simply ‘Thou Art That’

They have said in Simple words

We have to Simply understand

Sounds Simply Simple, yet

Not as Simple, Simply

 

If one understands or is trying to understand these simple words simply said by sages, I am very happy that you are simply on the path to enlightenment.

      Yes Erika!
      Not to make it one, the words are dedicated.
      Good to see you after long time, your absence is being felt in my other previous posts.
      I have been thinking of your visit; long since pending. I shall come in my Heartspaceocraft soon.
      Thanks,

            I did not donit either until my emails became overwhelming with 300 and more a day. That’s why I had to find a different solution. I am not at home right now but will check as soon as possible.☺

      Yes Etta!
      Life is so, that is why the last two lines.
      The other lines are because of that.
      Making it simply simple.
      I mean life.

    Simply put, one should aspire to be a Simpleton! Then one would know all the simple joys of the world!
    This did make me smile!! So simply complex, having many layers, yet really only one.

      Simply to understand the not so simple is itself simply great. Being on the path to enlightenment is sheer not simply simple. But yet it is simple simply.

      Life’s complexities are there but here I mean to understand it simply which is not simple, but yet simply simple and contradictory to it is not simple simply.
      Now, have a big laugh.

      Here I am not trying to tell about being simple.
      I am only trying to put the simple subject of “thou art that” _ ‘Aham Brahmasmi’ which is simply not simple though, but I ha ve tried to say it in simple words.
      You have read the “Celestial Embrace”.

      Kally!
      It is very good you are pursuing to be simple and you think simplicity is sweetest, I agree.
      Here I have explained about this post in reply to some bloggers.
      Please find time to read the other comments. For your convenience I copy and paste the matter.
      “Here I am not trying to tell about being simple.
      I am only trying to put the simple subject of “thou art that” _ ‘Aham Brahmasmi’ which is simply not simple though, but I have tried to say it in simple words.”
      “Thanks Shivangi!
      I never wanted or want to express that I am spiritual.
      Maybe it comes naturally when you have such thoughts or in the path.
      Yes I do feel still – when I start witnessing the world as a Soul and when I Meditate, I suddenly go into that Blissful state.
      Remember, that is not all. there is further to understand. I think most of it is said in the lines in this Poetry, which has given me also that satisfaction. Every line tells of something profound. I think one has to think over deep again and again, so a glimpse of it shall be seen.
      If you want any details of some of the lines you feel free to ask.
      Hope you have listened to the music. Do keep time for them during meditation or while you go to sleep.”
      I hope you understand
      Shiva

      Sorry Kally these lines for Shivangi are to be read:
      “Shivangi!
      I am rather surprised as sometimes my thoughts or the lines are are not understood in the right perspective. I think it happens with poetry. The reader gives better or more meanings to the lines.
      Here I am not trying to tell about being simple.
      I am only trying to put the simple subject of “thou art that” _ ‘Aham Brahmasmi’ which is simply not simple though, but I have tried to say it in simple words.
      The line below the lines says it all.
      “If one understands or is trying to understand these simple words simply said by sages, I am very happy that you are simply on the path to enlightenment.”

    There is a saying – it is not simple to be simple… This poem underscores it. It is indeed not simple to be simple coz of so many complexities going on in our mind. But when I see kids I feel being simple! Good one, Shiva

        Wow… Never saw it from that perspective. Got it now! I know about the concept of Aham Brahmasmi but am still very complicated to figure it out. You raise and remind of lovely beautiful things connected to our souls. Stay Blessed!

    we are born of dust, made of dust and shall vanish into the dust once the life is done with us. we are the universe and the universe resides in us. we only have to look within. There is no difference between ‘me’ the individual self and the whole ‘universe’ of which I’m a part of. the day we understand this we’ll be at peace with ourselves and the world… but only understanding doesn’t help we have to take it higher to the state of simplicity which we often do not and get stuck in mundane theories and battles of life.. battle of survival…

      You have spoken clear and loud of Advaita, I am sure you are a student of that school of thought.
      Yes it is the simplicity one has to understand of the Simple Simply. 😀
