MANTRAM -7. { Nature  of  the  Supreme  Abode }

Discussion-4. "Mother Sruti"

In  fact  there  is  no  contradiction  here.

Mother  Sruti  is  here  trying  to  find  an  expression  to  express  the  unfathomable,  vast,  the  all-pervading.

Naturally  she  has  to  say  that  Pure  Awareness  or  Consciousness  is  a  "circle  whose  centre  is  everywhere."  

It  is  at  once  at  every  point  in  the  heart  within  us,  as  well  as  outside  us  --- at  the  farthest  imaginable  or  conceivable  point  in  space,  time  or  thought  or  imagination.

Wherever  and  whatever    we  are  aware of,  be  it  through  the  medium  of  seeing  or  thinking  or  feeling.

We  can  be  aware  of  things  only  when  they  are  within  the  frontiers  of  our  awareness.

Thus,  Pure Consciousness  in  its  absolute  nature  is  equally  here  within  us  and  also  at  the  farthest  imaginable  point
