Apparently nothing you can relate to. Perhaps its not in your experience, but with time and grace, there is a sense that the body, mind, intellect and all become HOLLOW and empty. They appear to become more TRANSPARENT, as if CRYSTALINE. Their functioning seems, as a poetic metaphor, like a RESIDUE -- though its a complex pattern like a TAPESTRY. This appears to happen as those knots within our soul (another poetic phrase) loosen and unravel. Like a know in a rope, when it is untied, it does not exist, But what is left is some small creasing of the rope. As knots unravel, there is that growing sense of being HOLLOW AND EMPTY. But the crease from the past knots causee enough "dust" to form on the otherwise transparent Crystaline form or body, mind intellect and all that remains. The dust creates some defraction of both Effulgence and the light of everyday life events. This light defraction (again a poetic metaphor) gives the appearance of the former mundane earthy body, mind and intellect, though its is just a mirage. Those knots, in classical literature, are called samskaras. I hope this helps. ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Dying to be thin? Anorexia.
