 ============================================================= Swami Chinmayananda =============================================================== Thursday, March 03, 2022. 20:00. Discourse 42 : Chapter-15 Begins: The world as an Inverted Tree. POST-23. ======= ===================================================== The prayer is: I aspire to attain that glorious Purusha. Let there be this prayer in our hearts every day: tameva cādyaį¹ puruį¹£aį¹ prapadye yataįø„ pravį¹›ttiįø„ prasį¹›tā purāį¹‡Ä«. The prayer of the seeker is: I humbly seek to reach and attain that Purusha, from whom emanates the large tree of samsara. Go on repeating this mantra: tameva cādyaį¹ puruį¹£aį¹ prapadye yataįø„ pravį¹›ttiįø„ prasį¹›tā purāį¹‡Ä«. This is actually a mantra, an inward prayer of a spiritual seeker, making out that one wants nothing but that which is above the three gunas of prakriti, which causes the tree to manifest.
