Guruji:
Ego breaks down if
1. We understand the nature of senses,
2. The need to let go of our attachment to senses,
3. Train ourselves to work free of filters and limitations,
4. And finally let go of sense limits by suspending judgments.All these are the objects of Goddess worship, and Tantra of Lalitha
Guruji, "When ego breaks down?", as posted on Guruji's blog by Vira Chandra on 5 November 2016. The text is kept as in the original. A photograph on the original post is not copied here.
In Kaula practice the senses are not enemies. They are used in worship, and they are also what we learn to see clearly and hold lightly.
Guruji's steps move from knowing the senses, to loosening attachment, to working without filters, to pausing judgment. Each step is a way of watching the mind in daily life.
Guruji says these are the objects of Goddess worship and the Tantra of Lalitha. He attained mahasamadhi in October 2015, and Guru Amma Annapurnamba guides the lineage today. This site is an independent practitioner's space and does not speak on behalf of Devipuram.
Guruji says it breaks down when we understand the nature of the senses, let go of attachment to them, train to work free of filters and limitations, and suspend judgments.
Guruji lists it as the second step. The text does not say more, so read it as releasing our grip on what the senses pull us toward.
He names it as the way to let go of sense limits. Judgments are filters, so pausing them removes a limit.
Guruji ends by saying all these are the objects of Goddess worship, and Tantra of Lalitha.
If something in this teaching landed for you, the best next step is a short private conversation.
