BODHAYANTI PARASPARAM – VOL 2
Laya
Laya Avastha has no meaning if we are not in tune with Him and His purposes. The imaginative descriptions of the state of Laya resorted to by poets and philosophers have practically no meaning. Without annihilation of ego (which is of various shades) laya even in the lowest knot is not possible. I consider and I think I made it explicit many times that knot 1 (including 1a) is the toughest of all and to think we have moved out of it may be only the result of delusion. This is the reason for the Master to suggest cleaning of the heart regularly and this is a tedious process. According to Fana (Worthlessness) is the Baqa (laya). What more can I say. Unless laya is achieved to some extent (happily we do get such moments often) Divinity will not be able to get its things done. Any desire to have conscious awareness of the work of the Divine is only an expression of the ego and is therefore bound to fail in the attempt.
