meditation 112

When mind

intellect

breathing

and ego

are submerged –

the Supreme happens.

Note:

In The Manual for Self Realization: 112 Meditations of the Vijñāna Bhairava Tantra, edited by John Hughes, Swami Lakshmanjoo humorously chides mind, intellect, breathing, and ego for being outside the mission statement of Divine Awareness.  

According to Swamiji, this is Shambav-upaya.

Rather than "submerged," Swamiji, in the MSR, prefers "leave it aside," whereas Jaideva Singh, in The Yoga of Wonder, Delight, and Astonishment, favors "dissolves."

Swamiji and Dina Nathji's original employs two fewer commas:

When the mind, the intellect, breathing and the ego are submerged the Supreme happens.

Generally, I follow the guidelines of the Chicago Manual of Style.  

Whereas Lakshmanjoo and Hughes as well as Lakshmanjoo and Muju correlate the 112th and final dhāraṇā with verse 138 of the scripture, Singh correlates it with verse 137.
