SS: If we say - Ram come here! What happens? Whoever is Ram will respond by coming. How does that happen? Ram drops the word Ram, drops the word meaning - one who revels in all, drops the thinking that someone called ram is being called. He identifies with what Ram indicates - himself and feels i am being called and so he comes.
Same way in contemplation on sacchidananda, one drops the word, word-meaning, thinking of Sacchidananda as something other than me and identifies totally with the state of Self as one's nature.
Pooja is done with body, speech & mind. Japa with the speech & mind. Contemplation only with the mind. Each one is subtler than the other.
GP: Beautiful swamiji! I never looked at it from this perspective!
