LAGHU <strong>YOGA</strong> VASISTHA<br />

enter that non-dual mind which is free from bad<br />

thoughts, words, qualities or actions and<br />

whichever looks equally upon all.‟<br />

„The mind should be rendered fit for salvation to<br />

reach the seat of „That‟ without delusion, vehicle or<br />

stains. It should be made to reach the seat of „That‟<br />

wherein the ghosts of the impure differentiations<br />

do not reside, having previously been stripped of<br />

fear, its long standing associate. When Atman is<br />

known through it, all pains will be annihilated; and<br />

then there will be no <strong>com</strong>peer to it in all the realms.<br />

It is difficult of attainment (even) to those like<br />

myself. Such a subjugation of the mind will enable<br />

one to reach a goal far above all actions. How can<br />

such a state be attained by an intelligence steeped<br />

in ignorance? Through the Madhyagata (neutral)<br />

Jnana which is tantamount to Jnana vision and<br />

leads to the development of Jnana, I have<br />

developed one attribute which destroys all<br />

pleasures and pains and conduces to bliss. It is the<br />

control of Prana which paves the way for all the<br />

non- cognition of all the externals and is the cause<br />

of the arrest of death.‟<br />
