Zen sahaja...

In the Mithraic cult of the Middle East, the sun was united with the Earth, fertilizing it.

We call Mithraism a religion of sun worship, but the hidden God behind it was the real object of worship.

Yet the final end of all the solar activity--fertilization--was not forgotten.

Spirt and Matter became one, daily life of the human being became his spiritual life.

Then only did the results of this fertilization--the living crops--appear.

Zen sahaja, natural samadhi--this is what they mean.
