Thanks, Billy, I'll check out Yogananda's translation of the Gita.
Maharishi's has always been my favorite, but reading the quote
(above) from VI.3 makes me question that reading. Unless cosmic
consciousness is a lot different than what I feel it to be, the
silence of the Self is beyond scale. It cannot be relegated to
individual existence at all. It Alone Is. I think this is just
another example of Maharishi explaining something from one
perspective but from another perspective it just doesn't make sense.
But, having said that, I should go back and read that again in
context. Thanks.
Marek
