Dear Mark, Wonderful! Yes, the experience can never be reduced
into words. Lao Tse has said: Those who speak, know not; Those
who know speak not. In Tamil, they say: 'Kandavar Vindilar;
Vindavar Kandilar', meaning, those who have seen, cannot express;
those who express have not seen.'
Again, one Tamil Saiva Saint, called Thayumanavar, who lived in
17th century has said a beautiful example. In the morning after
the nuptial night, the bride comes out of the room and she is
unable to express anything to any one. Even to her mother, she
is not able to say anything and she merely, 'looks' at her mother!
Arunachala Siva.
