1.The
epic Ramayana was sparked off by two little incidents involving two
minor characters – the resentment of Kaikeyi’s maid Manthara and the
lust of Ravana’s sister, Surpanakha. Be aware that a tiny spark of these
two inimical qualities desire and anger (kama and krodha),
is sufficient to destroy peace and joy in your life. Weed them out
before they destroy you. Work hard to clear your mind from of all its
likes and dislikes. If you succeed in restraining their flow towards the
objective world, your senses will be rendered ineffective. Once you
accomplish the extinction of the mind, these evil qualities cannot harm
you and you will remain in joy and peace. Sensory activity is the warp
as well as the woof of the mind. When that ceases, the mind vanishes –
it starves and dies.
