\nIn His Yoga Sutras, Patanjali spelt out the
\nprinciples of Cosmic Union.<\/p>\n

Transcending the three relative
\nstates of Waking ( Jagrat ), Dreaming ( Swapna ) and Dremless Sleep ( Sushupthi
\n), there exists a Fourth State of Consciousness ( proved conclusively in
\nDr Keith Wallace’s PhD Thesis ” The physiological effects of Transcendental
\nMeditaton”, UCLA. 1975 and published in the Scientific American ).<\/p>\n

This
\nFourth State is known in Sanskrit as Thureeya. Transcendental Consciousness is
\nThureeya and Cosmic Consciousness, the Fifth State, is known as Thureeyatheetha
\nin Yogic scriptures.<\/p>\n

Bhagavan Patanjali was an incarnation of the Lord.
\nThe Lord in His Bounty, incarnated as Patanjali to reveal to humanity the Wisdom
\nof Yoga Sastra.<\/p>\n

Later, Aurobindo integrated all the four systems of Yoga
\n– Bhakti, Jnana, Karma and Raja – and called it the Integral Yoga.<\/p>\n

In
\nthe early hours of morning, I meditate
On the Absolute Self, which alone
\nexists
Which is of the nature of Being-Knowledge-Bliss
Which is the end of
\nour evolutionary journey
Which transcends the relative states triune
I am
\nthat partless, undifferentiated Brahman
And not this assemblage
\napparent
Of matter envelopments, bound by Nescience !<\/p>\n
