We'll continue working with the mantra "Aham" (I/the Absolute AM), and this week our reading is from Lorin Roche's interpretation of the Vijnana Bhairava Tantra (Bhairava = luminous Consciousness). As we practice we can learn to be with our fear, calm ourselves, and then move forward in our life in such a way as to lead to a skilful yogic outcome for ourselves and others.
We all tremble, we all know fear.
Turn to the one Life pervading the Universe whose name dispels fear
Find that name resonating in your heart
Luminosity permeates the Universe and the secret sound that hums
everything into existence resounds everywhere
Listening to the inner sound continually, become lovers with the Secret One
(Lorin Roche, The Radiance Sutras, 2014)
