5 Dec According to the yogis, the mind is like a river flowing between two banks. One bank is associated with worldly pleasure (bhoga) and its endless consequences; the other is associated with spiritual wisdom and spiritual freedom. Between these two banks there is a vast floodplain. Sometimes the river of mind flows more strongly toward the mundane realm, and sometimes more strongly toward the sacred. It is the quality of the water—the mental content of the mind—that determines whether the river flows toward the worldly realm or toward the spiritual. The more polluted it is, the closer it flows to the worldly bank; the clearer and purer it is, the closer it flows to the sacred bank.#abhyasa #magicalawareness #india #yoga #vrittis #perspective #practiceandalliscoming Yoga WRITTEN BY admin COMMENTS / 0
