Then All This Earth Shines Like One

God Illumines The Mind And Shines Within It. One Cannot Know God By Means Of The Mind. One Can But Turn The Mind Inwards And Merge It In God.

Concentration Is Not Thinking Of One Thing. On The Contrary, It Is Excluding All Thoughts, Since All Thoughts Obstruct The Sense Of One's True Being. All Efforts Are To Be Directed Simply To Removing The Veil Of Ignorance. Concentrating The Mind Solely On The Self Will Lead To Happiness Or Bliss. Drawing In The Thoughts, Restraining Them And Preventing Them From Straying Outwards Is Called Detachment (vairagya). Fixing Them In The Self Is Spiritual Practice (sadhana). Concentrating On The Heart Is The Same As Concentrating On The Self. Heart Is Another Name For Self.

The Seat Of Realization Is Within And The Seeker Cannot Find It As An Object Outside Him. That Seat Is Bliss And Is The Core Of All Beings. Hence It Is Called The Heart.

Peace Is Your Natural State. It Is The Mind That Obstructs The Natural State.

Happiness Is Your Nature. It Is Not Wrong To Desire It. What Is Wrong Is Seeking It Outside When It Is Inside.
