“You see unfolding the full knowledge is the proposition. Not just piece-mill. We generally have little little bits of knowledge, but here a total knowledge is being mentioned, at one time.”

5th June 2014 – Thursday – Sanyasashrama

Sanyasa is something which comes in life for all of us, whether we like it or not. Things are taken away and we learn to live without them. This is something which Nature has made for our own good. Otherwise we are attached to everything around us – we can’t do without this and that. But if we see, in life, right from the childhood, one by one, things disappear, none remaining. So here is a learning that Nature is forcing on us and which is for our own good.”

6th June 2014 – Friday – Yoga Sutra 2.53

“Lot of preparatory work has to go on before the final Dharana-Dhyana-Samadhi come. So we have completed the beginning and then comes the other part, where the mind can remain steady, one-pointed and then the discussion that starts.”
