Sri Swami Satchidananda’s commentary includes making the connection between what we call self, and God, and sovereignty, and Awareness (and the many translations of Īśvara): “That supreme joy can only be acquired when you rise above nature by complete surrender...Then you become one with the transcendent God." 01:01:47 Jena McCutchen: Thank you for sovereignty thesaurus words !! 01:01:56 Jena McCutchen: Reacted to "Sutras 1.24-1.26 1.2..." with ❤️ 01:02:21 Monica: As I was journaling, I’d just written “tenderness is strength” and my 4yr old daughter walked in the room and sat beside me and said “why have you stopped writing?” I said because I’m not sure what to write now.
