A Devotee said that he felt peace in His presence which lasts some time after. He added: “Why is it not enduring?”
Maharishi: That Peace is the Real nature. Contrary ideas are only superimpositions. This is true bhakti, true Yoga, true Jnana. You may say that this peace is acquired by practice. The wrong notions are given up by practice. This is all. Your true nature always persists. These flashes are only signs of the ensuing revelation of the Self. In reply to the first question Bhagavan said: The Heart is the Self. It is not within or without. The mind is Its sakti. After the emergence of the mind, the universe appears and the body is seen to be contained in it. Whereas all these are contained in the Self and they cannot exist apart from the Self.
