Gurus Grace is Always There. D.: Several terms are used in the holy books. Atman, Paramatman, Para, etc. What is the gradation among them? B.: They mean the same to the user of the words but they are understood differently by various persons according to their development. D.: But why do you use so many words to mean the same thing? B.: It depends on the circumstances. They all mean the Self. Para means not relative, or beyond the relative, that is to say the Absolute. V.: In actual practice, I find I cannot succeed in my efforts unless Bhagavan’s grace descends on me. B.: The Guru’s Grace is always there. You imagine it to be something somewhere high up in the sky that has to descend, but really it is inside you, in your heart, and the moment you effect the subsidence or merging of the mind into its Source, by whatever method, the Grace rushes forth, spouting as from a spring within you. **************
