Verse 107svavad anya-śarīre ’pi saṃvittim anubhāvayet ।
apekṣāṃ sva-śarīrasya tyaktvā vyāpī dinair bhavet ॥Cultivate the sense that the consciousness in another’s body is the same as one’s own. Releasing concern with one’s own body, one experiences all-pervasiveness within days.
Simplified Steps
•
Spend a day (or a week) contemplating that everyone you see possesses the very same consciousness that you do; that the consciousness looking out of each body-mind is yours
•
Practice intense empathy during this time; feel others’ pain and pleasure as yours
•
Have no more concern for ‘your’ body as you do for others’; or, have the same concern for other bodies as you do for yours
•
Experience your true all-pervasiveness.
