Sat-Chit-Ananda

"Now we were talking about 'Sat-Chit-Anand'. Again I have to use
Sanskrit words. 'Sat-Chit-Anand' is the 'Super Consciousness', the
all pervading power. 'Chit' is the attention, the 'Consciousness'.
You are just now conscious and listening to me. Every minute, you
are conscious. But every moment is becoming dead into the past.
Every moment is coming from the future to the present. But you are
conscious at this moment and are listening to me. A thought rises
and falls. You can see the rising of the thought, but not the
falling of the thought. In between these thoughts, there is a space
called 'Vilamb'. If you can stop for a while, you get to the
Conscious Mind and there exists the 'Sat-Chit-Anand'. You can
say 'Sat-Chit-Anand' is the condition of the mind or the state of
mind, where there is no thought, but you are aware 'Nirvichara'.
This is the first stage, where you jump into; into the 'Super
Consciousness'."
