What are the various attitudes with which people take on meditation and which is the ideal approach? Bhagawan explains to us today.
There are three ways by which aspirants try to enter the path of meditation: On the pure and serene satwic path, one considers repetition of the Name and meditation as a duty and suffers any amount of trouble for its sake; one is fully convinced that all this is just an illusion, so one does only good under all conditions and at all times. One desires only the good of all and is always loving towards all; one spends time uninterruptedly in the remembrance and meditation of the Lord. One does not crave even the fruit of repeating the name and meditation; one leaves it all to the Lord! In the passionate, restless (rajasic) path, one craves the fruit of one’s actions at every step. If the fruit is not available, then, gradually, laxity and disgust overpower the spiritual aspirant and repetition of the Name and meditation slowly dry up. The ignorant (tamasic) path is even worse. The Lord will come into the memory only in times of danger or acute suffering or when one is the victim of loss or pain!
– Dhyana Vahini, Ch 2.
Why ask for this or that? Have faith in God, the Giver of All, the only Treasure you need ; He will fill you with contentment. – Baba.
