careful! You can make a great helpless mind, the most revered Gurudev used to say about Maharishi Patanjali that he is amazing. They believe in meditating the seeker, in making him meditate. He has absolutely no faith in telling stories around here and there. They have no faith in enticing. In one context, when the discussion of this sutra came in front of Gurudev, he said- 'Now look here, what kind of thing he said. In front of the seekers, it was very clear that either by providing the witnessing feeling, get situated in your form or else keep wandering by identifying with the vrittis. Apart from these two, there can be no third truth. If you know, then you know, if you agree then you agree. Gurudev used to say, Patanjali's sutras are telegrams sent for seekers. There is not a single idle word here and there. Sometimes a sutra is not even complete. It is the least important. These sutras are such as to strings someone and cut unnecessary unnecessary words there. This is what the wire means, at least in words, the entire message should be said.

It does not have trees, it does not have rivers, but it has its own expansion. No forest can be compared to that. The forests have their beauty, the hills have their beauty, the rivers have their beauty. The desert has its vast infinity. Yes, it takes courage to walk this path.

Patanjali says very clearly that if you, we, a mere human being have complete freedom from deviation, confusion, stress, anxiety, sorrow, pain, depression, then there is no other option than to have the witnessing feeling available. is. Because in other states, there will remain identification with the instincts of the mind. Such is the nature of man. This does not apply to any one person, to any particular person.
