________________ Nor by being a recluse. It is not performed by witty discourse. Yoga is performed by focusing the attention between the two eyebrows (the one-pointed focus; Dristi yoga) and by journeying within. Such aspirants focus their attention within and experience the inner light and inner divine sound. These are the true yogis. Guru Nanak says: There is a rain of nectar in the heart; and the mind drinks the sweet nectar of the celestial sounds. The mind, intoxicated by the sweet nectar day and night, remains in joy. In the inner realms of being, there is a shower of beautiful shimmering rays of light, and also the rain of divine nectar of divine sound. In these two forms is found the true divine elixir within. There has always been a talk of this nectar in the myths and legends, but no one has seen this nectar. What is this true elixir? Guru Nanak says: Those who follow the true guide (guru) find the nectar in the form of Divine Sound. Guru Nanak tells us that one must seek this inner light, this inner sound, and this nectar through the following technique: In each heart the Divine resides hidden; each heart is permeated with divine light. 301
