Instead of consciousness "flowing out," as it were, to the objects of the senses, it was soma flowing out? Soma as reified consciousness? I 've always understood and experienced, to some degree, soma as the movement of consciousness or as you put it, reified consciousness. It seems to be the most refined or subtle aspect of the senses in experiencing objects. It produces overwhelming bliss when the "I" sense created through identification begins to shift towards subtler/sattvic bondage. -Peter Not challenging, but why do you equate these things with soma? Self-apparent? Ritam type knowledge? Seems like expereinces in 9th Mandala? Lectures where it was described this way? Personal working hypothesis? It just f*cking is? Or a smug, "what, you don't know"? :) To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!' Yahoo!
