Brahma Sutras : ( 10/04/2013. )

=========== ================================================================================= Sunday 21, Jul 2024. 05:30.  Chapter - 8: Upasana – Upanishadic Meditations-5. =================================================================================== There are essentially two types of meditation – one is Saguna and the other is Nirguna. Meditating on God Almighty as a Supreme Person is Saguna Upasana; 'Father in Heaven', Narayana, Vishnu, Rama, Devi,  – whatever be the name you give to God – this is the name of a personality which is Cosmic in its nature. The Cosmic expansion of the human concept of personality is the concept of God also, usually. If you meditate on this concept of God, you will achieve That. But the Infinite Personality is not sitting just here; there is a distance involved in It. So it takes time for you to reach the Personal God. Even when you consider God as a Person Infinite in nature and most powerful, you still stand outside It in your meditation.
