2013 Aquarian Sutra #1: Recognize the Other Person is You

The theme for this year and Summer Solstice Sadhana 2013 is the first sutra of the Aquarian Age: Recognize the other person is you. A sutra is a statement that weaves together two realms—the finite and the Infinite—into the consciousness that supports the Self. This sutra—Recognize the other person is you—has three dimensions: I, You and Thou/Infinite.

The sutra says that you and every person share a common nucleus; a still point that is by nature infinite. It is both before and beyond our normal sense of time and space, and yet gives birth to all that is experienced in time and space. It is an empty stillness from which all things arise. We enter that by creating a state of shuniya in meditation and prayer.

Humee Hum, Tumee Tum, Wahe Guru; I am Thine, in Mine, Myself, Wahe Guru

The mantra we are using with this sutra is: Humee Hum, Tumee Tum, Wahe Guru; I am Thine, in Mine, Myself, Wahe Guru. It has a subtle structure in its sound, beat and arrangement. We vibrate it from within our heart and listen to our sound and become merged in it. 

To sense and manifest the subtle insight of this sutra, there is no stronger affirmation than Humee Hum, Tumee Tum, Wahe Guru; I am Thine, in Mine, Myself, Wahe Guru. As we attune to the depth within our own consciousness (Humee Hum) and listen to the depth in the other person (Tumee Tum) and place both sensitivities before the Infinite (Wahe Guru), we are multiplied. In this way clarity of mind comes. The sense of personal purpose and life purpose comes. And a profound connectedness with other people and with All that Is arises.
