Guest guest Posted October 3, 2002 Report Share Posted October 3, 2002 The Yogi says that man becomes subject to a good may samskaras (latent tendencies) by identifying himself with sense-objects from birth to birth. This is the reason why he suffers so much and finds it very difficult to get free from them. The Yogi suggests a means: SIT STILL. Do not indulge in any thought, forgetting your self. Allow the mind to think, and you begin to watch its various workings as a witness. Then concentrate your mind on an object. This concentration will burn the seeds of samskaras and reveal the Truth. Right concentration will bring Self-Realisation. Therefore, we see the chief effort of the Yogi is to think himself the witness UNDER ALL CIRCUMSTANCES and to concentrate the mind fully on a single object.
