the clock 24x7 and, very naturally, become detached from all sorts of worldly cravings. How did she get to sip this Divine Juice? She explains, "When I transcended Ida & Pingla, I opened the door of Sushumna.
And as I began to sip there the elixir of immortality, some wicked element caused some disturbance. But undeterred I seated myself again in the centre of Ganga (Ida) and Yamuna (Pingla), and Lo! Flashes of lightning were brightening up the inner sky.
I further ascended into the Spiralling Cave ('bhanvar gufa') where brightness intensified even further."
When she made the Ganga and the Yamuna, the two currents of sight, converge in a point, the Sushumna Gate opened up. She began to relish the elixir pouring down there, but as she was busy doing so, some wicked elements (hinting at agitating waves of mental defilements) hindered her meditation and the continuity of dhyāna got broken as a result. Undeterred, she strived again with renewed vigour and set her sight again in the mid of the Ganga & the Yamuna and saw dazzling effulgence there. Continuing further, she ascended herself into the “Bhanwar Gufā” (the Spiralling/ Whirling Tunnel or Cave). Consequent to her mind getting stilled, the restive monkey mind got tired and all the senses were rendered toothless. For attaining this spiritual state she expresses her deep sense of gratitude to her Guru, Sant Charandas Ji, with whose compassionate grace all (notions of) action and delusions were destroyed. In connection with bindu dhyān Sant Yari Sahab states that on closing his eyes he could behold light even though no Sun or moon was to be found there. As a result of seeing that light that was emanating there without any lamp or oil he could feel the divine awareness dawn upon him: "I closed eyes and peeped within; no Moon or Sun was there, neither day nor night.
Light without any lamp, oil or wick could be seen and in that light all the Divine wonders were revealed to me."
