03. The Triple Transformation: Psychic – Spiritual – Supramental
Fragment ID: 2622
In what may be called the first silence, it is like that – silence alone with no emotion or other inner activity. When it deepens one can feel the Nirvana of the Buddhists or the ātmabodha of the Vedantins. Both force and bliss or either can descend into the silence, filling it with calm Tapas or silent Ananda.
