"Sat-chit-ananda is a Sanskrit term that describes the nature of reality as it is conceptualized in Hindu and yogic philosophy. Some consider sat-chit-ananda to be the same as God or Brahman (Absolute Reality). Others use it as a term to describe the experience of realizing the unity and wholeness of all existence.

It is said that sat-chit-ananda is the source of all consciousness and all perfection. To experience sat-chit-ananda is to achieve the ultimate goal of the spiritual journey" (as defined by yogapedia.com)

I Am, I be and I so become, one with all of the universe
softened attention osmotically percolating boundless space 
blurring boundaries between form and formlessness
that that is, is the singular I Am presence, vibration of silence
lower mind vaporised innate awareness, in dynamic stillness 

Neither negating, nor clinging, I embrace, hold and release
magnetic electricity igniting all sheaths of consciousness 
orientation free flowing, tingling with heightened rapture 
all nodes within form alive in celebratory dance beauteous
scented with the exhilarating fragrance of bliss ineffable 

Stilling not the deepening silence, stillness now stills our being
subject and object, both us, tango with void as the fulcrum 
cognised in the expansion and contraction of each life pulse
enriched and distilled by the loving intent of our radiant heart
reflected back into space through mind body acting as a prism

Is-ness of being-ness thus stretching the time-space continuum 
doing nothing save resonating with the omnipresent divine energy
transcending limitations of imaginary ego identity borne delusion
spherically views the undifferentiated underlying singular reality
self-existent, luminous love in unending renewal; Sat-chit-ananda

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
