What is the difference between finding psychic being, psychic being come in front and psychic transformation?

Finding the psychic being:

Our consciousness is ordinarily tied to the surface personality by chains of ignorance and its knots ego and desire. But this is not all we are. By a steady, sustained spiritual effort our consciousness entangled on the surfaces of life begins to slowly get dislodged and detached from the surface and starts going inward until it touches the core, the truth of our being. This journey undertaken to discover the core, the truth of who we are, our true being is the finding of the psychic being which is our truth, our true self.

But this contact is not constant. Our consciousness is drawn back to the surface and then returns within. But each time it carries something of the psychic touch, the psychic influence until the surface consciousness too gets the stamp of the psychic nature. This is what is meant by the psychic coming to the forefront. When this process is complete and all nature becomes of the same mint as the psychic being, when all nature becomes tuned completely to the Divine under the influence of the psychic then it is called as psychic transformation.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Yes, I agree that for the average human being, these outer frameworks and social institutions do serve a purpose of holding people together. Of course, as I mentioned, marriage or not, love and togetherness can be beautiful and ought to be so. But for that, man needs to evolve beyond the present frameworks, which operate as long as one accepts the limits of dos and don’ts. …
