The Xenon Arc Lamp

While watching a movie in the theatre - we go through emotions - emotions of happiness, agony, laughter, fun, feelings of love, hate, pity etc - what has happened here ? - the combination of various colors of light and sound has produced the emotions in people watching the movie.

The xenon arc lamp at the back used by the theatre operator, is animating all these various colors on the screen which combined with sound are producing images on screen.

This is very similar to how we go about our life as well. The mind produces images and thoughts of various colors and the voices of the mind produce various sounds, the combination of them causes various emotions to occur in the individual.

In a movie the film is the one which adds colors to the emanating white light from the xenon arc lamp, in the mind its the subconscious impressions of the past which is also called karma that add various colors to the emanating clear white light of the superconscious mind.

If you now ask from where is the white light of the superconscious mind emanating from .... i mean the source of it?  Now that .... that is a story yet to be told.

I had this beautiful experience one morning last week of many thoughts both good and bad appearing in the screen of the mind. attention then went to the high pitched 'eee' sound which i always hear - that is when i got the intuition of the clear white light in a flash. the same light which was animating all the colors of the thoughts previously held. this light is the same in everyone - in all living beings - just the film is different - the subconscious burdens are different - whichis totally dependent on karma and the volution of the soul. So there is oneness and diversity at the same time in every individual.

As per gurudeva - continued holding attention to the eee sound will take the yogin to the realization of the self one day - the source of the xenon arc lamp as well as the superconscious mind !
