Icchayam Athava Jnane Jaate Chitta Niveshayath|Atmabuddhyaananyachetaaha Tatastathwartha Darshanam||
There is another way to concentrate
when a desire or a thought arises – bring the total attention of the mind to
that alone. The intellect that sees this desire or thought should be firmly
established as a pure witness and not strengthen the desire or thought or try
to suppress it. This is just like flashing a torch at every passing thought.
If this is done to the exclusion of all other thoughts, then one gets to the
essential illumination that is behind
every thought and desire which is nothing but a strong thought.In a shadow puppet show, all the names and forms of the different dolls may be good, villanous, loving, jealous, angry etc, but the light and shade that illumines them is just one. – SS
