LAGHU YOGA VASISTHA
all Vasanas, being convinced of the visibles as
illusory. Having planted firmly your intelligence in
the immaculate Seat of Brahman which is the
neutral state between Sat and Asat, do not let it, oh
Rama, be attracted or expelled by the universes,
both external and internal to the body. Being
without love or hatred in all actions, Atma-Jnanis
will never let their minds be affected by such
actions, like water on a lotus leaf. If your mind, oh
Rama, will but firmly abandon all the so-called
pleasures arising from the sensual objects, you will
then be a knower of Atma-Jnana, cross the
Samsaric oceans and liberate yourself from rebirths.
If you long for the Supreme Brahmic Seat, you
should through the true Atma-Jnana destroy the
mind of Vasanas like a flower losing its Vasanas
(or odour). The enjoyment without fear of
(Brahmic) bliss constitutes the vessel which enables
safe landing to those who are drowned in the
Samsaric ocean full of the waters fluctuating with
the base Vasanas. Those in whom Atma-Jnana has
dawned directly will follow the worldly avocations
