- Reader of the questions: Sw Anand Arun.
- Question 1
- Beloved master, the more I watch the desires and needs of the mind, the more I come to a space that looks like madness. Please comment.
- Question 2
- Beloved master, my question tonight is about causality. I am wondering what could produce the mystic's experience of the absolute. The absolute must be infinite and eternal, and yet the cause must be both spiritually and temporally distinct from what it produces. Since nothing could stand outside of eternity, or nothing could stand outside of infinity, there could be no cause which could produce this experience of the absolute.
- What possible chance, if this is the case, is there for me if all of my actions not only cannot produce this experience of the absolute, but would do the opposite, would perpetuate my finiteness and my temporality?
