To The Companions of the Inquiry;
I suggest a reflection upon the famous Symbol of the Mahatma's
the "Three Dots" (in a Triangle) so often seen and associated
with the Mahatma Letters. These could be seen as the Symbolic
representation of the Great Triple Bindu. Sometimes indicating
"AUM". Sometimes other context of Process. Schematic of
the Circle with the Triangle within as per the Mandukya -the 
Transcendent Uncreate and the Three Realms of Create
Consciousness. Mind was not always-Consciousness can
also be "Non-mind". I seem to recall that somewhere H P B
states that the essential Function of Buddhi Principle is the 
Transcendental Component of Transcendent Intellect - the 
Determinative Reasoning. 

I recommend to those who engage the Scholarly the 
following work.

"Vac - The Concept of the Word In Selected Hindu Tantras'
Author: Andre Padoux
Translated: Jacques Gentier
State University of New York Press 1990
ISBN 0-7914-0258-4 (pbk.)

It has heavy use of the work of Abinavagupta's Philosophy

As for myself from a purely personal perspective I have to agree
with Steve. What our Conditioned Mind (a la Patanjali) perceives
as "Space" is only the view of Conditioned Mind. there are not
"2" Spaces - there is but "1". In the Yoga of Union at the 
"Quiescence" of (Conditioned) Mind the True Presents Instant.
Then Space is known and Home also. One view I entertain
is to try to conceive how Ultimate Being matriculates Purpose
with Function. A Monad- Atma/Buddhi in terms of what
is at state of Enthymesis and then Mayavic Projection in
conjunction with the Out-breathing and In-breathing of the 
Manvantaric. Can it be that at the completion when the Great
Cycle is Culminated and all is returned "Into the Heart of the Father"
Function no longer requires Atma or Monad and yet because intrinsic
Nature is the selfsame as All nothing is lost and nothing was gained
as ultimately the One is ever the One?

Somewhere in the Bhagavad Gita Krishna tells Arjun "Arjun there will 
come
a place when you will see arrayed before you all the many personalties 
you 
were and when seeing them you will laugh", of course then Arjun is in 
Unity
with the Transcendent Self and aware. 

The person that first introduced Hatha Yoga in America was a man named 
Vasant G. Rele' he authored several lauded works one being "Bhagavad 
Gita -
an Exposition on the Basis of Psycho-Philosophy & Psycho-Analysis" 
1928.
I highly recommend this and his other works to all.
