Meditation: A New Dimension

Yogacharya Kriyananda: "But is it a stage of Existence? I think it is Existence."

Bhagwan: "It IS Existence, not a stage of Existence. Things exist; Existence never exists. Existence IS. These two words are tautological, repetitive. Existence is is-ness, so there is no question whether it exists or does not exist."
