The Running Sutras - Verse 8:3



The Blessed Lord Said:

But the truly wise, Arjuna,
who dive deep into themselves,
fearless, one-pointed, know me
as the inexhaustible source.
                                          (Bhagavad Gita 9:13)

~
Every path a reflection - and our stride
unfolds to the infinite nature
within.

We are revealed in steps taken.

  • All things pass. Yet the infinite remains. This is the source of existence, the core of our very being. Everything else is an illusion of time and space. When we run from the source we are able to tap into a strength far greater than that of the will - we reach the unlimited power of spirit. To do so requires the unconditional surrender of will and ego - these are tools of the mind and body. Surrender to the Self and we go beyond the need for tools. The Source provides. Our role is to simply run.
 Peace,
Eric
