dangerous river. You have to cross it to go over to the other shore of safety,
the spiritual life. But once in it, you are doomed. You are drowned in its
fathomless depths or if you try to clamber up its sides you are bogged down in
their sticky mud. The one thing to do is to build a bridge – it can be only out
of the materials of life itself. Life's experiences form the materials. They
are trees, as it were, luxuriant in growth. You have
to cut them down, dry them – they must be dead before they can be used as
planks for the bridge. The sharp edge of a concentrated consciousness – the
sense of the unreality and inanity of this existence – is the axe for cutting

<font face="Times New Roman">The central
cord: the cords (nadi) are the lines or channels of psycho-vital forces that govern
the human organism, control the general functions of the body. These lines or
channels are sometimes identified with the nervous system but they are more
subtle than the material substance, more vital than physical. Their effective
expres&shy;sion, their principal agency in the physical is the respiratory system.
Their numbers are variously counted, sometimes sixty-four, sometimes
thirty-four, but the principal ones are three. These form a trinity and follow
the line of the spinal cord. They are the famous 'Ida', 'Pingala' and
'Susumna.' Ida and Pingala are on either side of the spinal cord, the central
one being the Susumna. The two on either side are the ascending and the
descending lines, (sometimes they are represented as the twins, knowledge and
power); the central holds the balance between the two, representing the
consciousness of unity or synthesis. These are the triple forces -that control
the breath and are made use of in Hathayoga – the intaking, the outgoing and

physico-vital movement there is also a psychological movement,
a movement of consciousness that establishes harmony among the forces around
and also rises upward and through the crown of the head goes beyond. The whole
operation may be transcribed as a movement of consciousness or consciousness&shy;

<font face="Times New Roman">of the Void pouring out the light of compassion
all over the creation. The strings are in two layers; the vowels (beginning
with a – alpha series) are the top series, the consonants the series below
(Indian K series, European beta series). That marks the echoing and the re&shy;-echoing
of the melody, also the right hand and the left hand move&shy;ments of the
consciousness (Knowledge and Power) according to the occultists – it means the
total encircling consciousness, the global music. The bridge tightens and
maintains the poise of the strings. We may remember here the two subtle nervous
lines of 'Ida' and 'Pingala' and the middle one, 'Sushumna' that balances the
two. The psychological sense is that the dualities of the world-experience are
resolved in the consciousness of the sadhak by a supreme sense of equality. The
elephant may mean the strength of physical resolution. The fingers pressing
indicate the same thing, the pressure of almost physical consciousness to bring
out the vast music that is Nirvana. The Gods and Goddesses are all happy for the

is an outright cryptogram. It speaks of mysterious things in an even more
mysterious way. First of all, we must note that the poet is a woman. She calls
herself kukkuri. But why of all names a
&quot;bitch&quot;? Well, she is in good company. One remembers the Vedic
Sarama or Sarameya. The West too has its Hound of Heaven. Only the term here
has been put in its vernacular form. Anyhow it is a yogini who embodies or
represents the divine Being, nairatma devi, as
the Buddhist commentator says.</font><o:p></o:p></p>

<font face="Times New Roman">Here also the
woman-singer, filled with the divine afflatus, intones her inexpressible
experiences. Her individual consciousness is identi&shy;fied with the universal
Mother consciousness. And as such while she casts her glance into herself, into
the depth of her womb, she finds the entire universe there and it comes out in
a burst. But she notes that the first creation is only a world of the mere
senses, the world of desires and it was not what she wanted. Therefore she
severed the life-line that held it – as though the umbilical cord – by a stroke
of the concentrated luminous energy that her consciousness was. So the wrong
manifestation, the false world (of Maya and Mara) dissolved. and
disappeared. And in its stead the true, the world of truth – that is the void –
was firmly established, never to move or change. The process is a difficult
path and only a heroic soul can go through it.</font><o:p></o:p></p>

<font face="Times New Roman">The mouse is the
ignorant being, the small being of ignorance&shy; – the restless desire – soul full
of hunger and hankerings – moved by the untamed vital urge ('the wind'). It is
difficult to spot it, because it is a black thing moving in blackness –
ignorance enveloped in ignorance. Tamo asit tamasa gudham.
It burrows a hole in the earth consciousness, enters into the basic
inconscience, steals all the light and happiness from above and hides them in the
underground darkness. No spiritual realisation can come and stay unless this
nibbling enemy is tracked and brought to light. The Veda gives a similar image.
The panis, the dark Asuras seize even the sun and
store it away in their secret caverns. Indra, the lord of the Divine Mind, has
to come and with his fulgurating thunderbolt pierce the hills – the earth-built
consciousnes and rescue and release the Light. Even
so, here the poet says, the mouse, the ignorant consciousness, must rise into
the sky of the luminous mindlessness, attain a steadfast concentration, then it
will lose its normal restlessness; when it is filled with the consciousness of
the true Guru, the divine Master, then it becomes stable and tran&shy;quillised –
it is no more fidgety bound in its inferior consciousness – its bondages snap,
it is free. The little ignorant being of small mind is freed into the luminous
vastness of the Buddha-consciousness. Then only can he taste of the nectar of
immortality for which he yearned even in his ignorant states.</font><o:p></o:p></p>

Reality is beyond any form or formulation. The consciousness there is straight,
simple, free. You need not go to a foreign land to
find it, it is close by, within you. You can know it

likely to be wrongly guided and lose yourself in bogs and marshes. Go simply

<font face="Times New Roman">The poem
expresses the relation of the ascetic to the world. He lives aloof and alone,
and without any ration. Yet the hungers from the world below mount up and try to
tempt him. That is the way of the world. But one above the world cannot retrace
his steps backward, even as the milk once out cannot go back to the udder. If
at all it is another cow, another milk-yielder, another milk.
It is not ignorant Nature's phenomenon; it is the consciousness of super-Nature
pouring out the great delight. Nirvana is the barren cow, the bullock is its
energy or tapas and the milk is the supreme Joy. The three evenings must be the
close or end or setting of the three domains of worldly existence – body, life
and mind. The thief is the higher consciousness guarding at the top and he has
stolen away the world and the worldly objects. Similarly the lion is the Power
of the Higher Consciousness and the jackal the prowling creature of the dark
world. But the fight between the two is hard and equal, neither wanting to give
up.</font><o:p></o:p></p>

the consciousness ascends and descends with the rise and fall of respiration
along two ducts on either side of the spine (naturally on the subtle plane):
there is a third duct in between along which operates the holding of the breath
and the withdrawal of consciousness leading towards the Super-consciousness
beyond, the dual movement on either side represents the illusory worlds
outside; the middle path absorbs all the noises of creation which are
transformed into the final cry of the concentrated consciousness at its apex
