the hand of discrimination.

N.S.Pathak:

 

What should one do if an undesirable thought creeps into one's mind ?

 

Ramana Maharshi :

 

Do you have any unclean , unwanted thing in your pocket ?

 

N.S.Pathak:

 

Yes , a dirty handkerchief.

 

Ramana Maharshi :

 

Then what would you do to throw it out ?

 

N.S.Pathak:

 

I shall put my hand inside my pocket , take the handkerchief out and

throw it away.

 

Ramana Maharshi :

 

Just like that , any undesirable thought should be thrown out with the

hand of discrimination.
