Morning Satsang from Strilky Ashram
The inner sun of wisdom dawns when darkness disappears. The twelve mantras of Surya Namaskar align with the sun's twelve names and the day's blessings. At the highest consciousness, there is everlasting light beyond the sun and moon. The period before dawn is Brahmamuhurta, an effective time for practice. The time of dawn itself is Amritvela, when nectar descends. Sunrise is Sandhya Vela, a junction for prayer. One should share food, even with small creatures, to make it an offering free from karma. The sun is the light of life, given from generation to generation. Discipline in practice and attendance is essential; negligence causes loss.
"Lead us from the darkness to the light."
"In that level of consciousness... there is akhaṇḍ ujjālā. There is no sun and no moon."
