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

water into many kinds of foam, etc. Nought else is<br />

but the one Brahman.‟<br />

„Having dispelled the thoughts of bondage and<br />

Moksha from arising (in you) and mastered them,<br />

may you be free from all fears and be as firm as a<br />

rock. But if you should associate yourself with<br />

thoughts of Sankalpa, then the Chinmatra Jnana<br />

will reach the state of a Jiva (in you), like water<br />

transformed into waves, etc. Then the Jivas will<br />

ever be whirling in the cycle of re-births, existing<br />

from a remote period. All the delusions of pains<br />

and pleasures are the attributes of the mind and<br />

not of Atma. Like Rahu 140 which, though not<br />

visible at other times, is manifested in conjunction<br />

with the moon, Atman, when it <strong>com</strong>es into direct<br />

experience, will be seen visibly. This Brahman<br />

which cannot be cognized through Jna‟na-6astras<br />

and Acharyas alone can be directly perceived in its<br />

own state through one self and his intelligence.<br />

Look upon your enemy, the organs in the same<br />

listless manner in which a wayfarer regards objects<br />
