Grace of an enlightened master

2 posts in this topic

According to sadhguru, you can become enlightened much faster (or at least have some big mystical experience) when you are meditating next to an enlightened being. Is this true? Have any of you experienced this ‘grace’ before? 


"Not believing your own thoughts, you’re free from the primal desire: the thought that reality should be different than it is. You realise the wordless, the unthinkable. You understand that any mystery is only what you yourself have created. In fact, there’s no mystery. Everything is as clear as day. It’s simple, because there really isn’t anything. There’s only the story appearing now. And not even that.” — Byron Katie

It is like tuning forks...you strike one and all the others of the same note in the area start resonating with it.

It is possible to be pulled (so to speak) into deep stillness, silence of mind, peace, etc. when in the company of someone who is very still, silent in mind, at peace, etc.

Just like if you enter a room in which someone is very angry...even if they are not trying to show it...you can tell and just being in the room with them agitates you a bit as well.

This is why the company you keep is important.
