A profound Shloka

Om Poornamadah poornamidam poornat poorna mudachyate
Poornasya poornamaadaya poornameva vashishyate

Meaning: That (consciousness) is full (perfect and complete), this (its manifest forms and matter) are also full. The fullness of manifest forms is projected from the fullness of the consciousness. When both merge, what remains is fullness.

I feel uplifted everytime I read this shloka. I have no experience of the universal consciousness that this one talks about, but its interesting to note that the material world has been derived from an abstract source that is perfect, complete and full.
