Day 6 Summary
Second Round of Samadhi - Asamprajnta Samadhi
When we are free from mental modifications and go beyond the three modes of material nature, inner joy starts to emerge. This is the second round of Samadhi, asamprajnta samadhi.
Humility Versus Arrogance
To stay in the firm ground of your practice, the key is for us to cultivate humility. Otherwise, we can become arrogant, and arrogance throws us off of our spiritual path. Arrogance plants karmic seeds of material attachment and keeps us entangled in mental modifications. Humility helps us to connect with the divine spiritual blessings. We cannot progress on the spiritual path without Humility.
Knowledge and Realized Knowledge (Gyan + Vigyan)
Having knowledge and realizing knowledge are two different because one is conceptual and one is truly experienced. Hence there is a difference between knowledge itself and realized knowledge. It is also important on our path of spiritual development to be open to learning new perspectives.
