"To have no liking for anything other than the Self is the sign of
Self-attainment.
Meditation on anything other than the Self, is bondage.
Always meditate on the "Divine Nature"
of your Self.
All other things are unreal.
Any other concentration
except on the Self, who is the Lord, is bondage.
Any meditation or
thinking except that which is on the very nature of your own being,
becomes a tight binding.
The "world" by its nature, is the separateness
of species.
It will never function smoothly.
Any fruit except for the
Self, is futile.
Please think this over deeply.
You are attracted to
that which is objective because the ego sense never thinks
of the true
contentment which is found only in the Self.
If one truly does something
for their own welfare,
the sense that "I am an individual" dies
because
that which exists afterwards is not the individual (Jiva).
The
individual turns towards sense objects,
and in doing so, turns towards
sorrow.
The objects that appear to be pleasant are really unpleasant.
The objects that appear attractive, are actually very destructive
and
give pain, yet the individual always runs after these objects.
Therefore, stop thinking about sense objects
and turn to the Path of
Devotion."
