“I sat on Padmasana. I meditated on Atman. I forgot myself and the surroundings. I saw something which I had never seen up to this time. I heard a Nada which I had never heard up to this time. There was a sensation and knowledge that I was absolutely free from all sorts of attachment. I had an experience of new knowledge. The thought of Atman continued for some time. I had a novel experience of pure bliss. It is a void full of Light and Knowledge and Bliss free from vicissitudes of this world.
When the Self is once recognised and realised, it can never be forgotten. The impression of the recognition of the Self, if once made, can never be obliterated from the mind. It sticks to the mind always.”
- Swami Sivananda
