(By Steven E. Kaufman): Maya, as the phenomenon that conceals from the Individual both its own Nature as well as the Nature of the universe as being composed of Consciousness-Existence, is a result of the unavoidable and inviolable functioning of two experiential limitations.

I thought that it would be an easy task for me to show that the universe was indeed spaceless and timeless, but actually it was not so easy. I thought if a photon moved from one end of the universe to its other end, then the so-called properties of the light would make the universe spaceless and timeless. Length will contract to zero, and time will also totally stop. But the real shock came when I realized after reading the book written by Einstein and Infeld that length contraction took place only in the direction in which the light was moving, not in every direction.

After reasoning like this I started reading books on parapsychology one after another. First of all I read almost all the books written by Arthur Koestler, his autobiographical writings in which he discussed elaborately modern scientific theories also, and in which we found his advocacy for ESP and parapsychological research. However I did not read any single novel written by him, not even his famous ‘Darkness at Noon’. It was due to his writings that I was drawn towards studying modern physics and parapsychology at the same time.
On Monday April 15, 2013, tragedy struck at Boston Marathon. We may not know why evil occurred but in GOD we steadfastly put our trust. So let us pray GOD for the recovery and healing of Boston! It is GOD who "heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds" (Psalm 147:3).

There is no bondage other than that which we create for ourselves. And the bondage we create is to trap ourselves into mode of creating unwanted rather than wanted experience through the mechanism of experiential entanglement, whereby we become locked into a resistant mode of being, locked into a relation of Self-resistance, owing to the way we habitually react to physical reality by trying to push away the unwanted and clinging to the wanted, i.e., through aversion and attachment.
