"I become the middle." And everywhere, the soul, being devoid of attachment, becomes absorbed in the pure self-meditation, and its supreme blissful emotions emerge:
Oh! Oh! I say to myself, I bow to myself, I bow to myself; the infinite fruit, the gift of the giver, which has become your gift.
... Shantijin! One request from me." - Shri Anandghanji, this soul, in which there is a goal, is called Pindastha Dhyana in the scriptures. The meditation of the soul residing in the physical body, the meditation of the soul-god residing in the body-temple, is Pindastha Dhyana. Where the mantra-sentences like Namaskara, which are indicative of the Supreme Being, are chanted, that is Padastah Dhyana. Where the omniscient Supreme Being, who is the subject of meditation, is the form-like meditation, that is Roopastha Dhyana. And
- Where the Nirangan, Nirakar Siddha Paramatma, who is beyond the body and form, is the subject of meditation, that is called Rupaatita Dhyana. *"देहादेवलि जो वसइ, देउ अणाइ अणतु । केवलणाणफुरंततणु, सो परमप्पु णिभंतु ॥"*
- Shri Yogindevdev-written Paramatmaprakash Ga. 33 In this, especially the meditation of the omniscient Bhagwan, who is the form-body-dwelling, is the ultimate benefit to the soul. Because seeing the unparalleled form of the Supreme Being, who is beyond the body, even though he has a body, the mind of the devotee becomes steady, leaving behind the Pindastha nature of the agile Lord. Therefore, that devotee sings in meditation and emotion: Oh Lord! If this form-like form had not been seen in the world, would our mind have been happy and joyful over it? Without being attracted, how would we desire the pure nature? Without being attracted, how would we desire the manifest form of the Lord? Without being attracted, how would we bring it to the state of meditation? Without being attracted, how would we taste the nectar? Therefore, we believe that Oh Lord! No devotee can attain liberation without your devotion. Oh Omniscient Supreme Being! By the gathering of our good virtues, you have become the form-body-wearer and have spoken the words of the nectar-like Dharma. Thus, Oh Lord! This form-body is the cause of many virtues, and by serving it, it becomes a shield against great fear, therefore, Oh Lord! We are determined to do this Pindastha Dhyana, becoming one. "Seeing the unique form, the good mind, having abandoned the agile nature, my mind becomes steady; if the form-like form had not been seen in the world, then what would the mind say, it would be hurting."
*"पदस्थं मन्त्रवाक्यस्थं पिण्डस्थं स्वाचितनम ।
रूपस्थं सर्वचिद्रूपं रूपातीतं निरञ्जनम् ॥"*
