I am the sole enjoyer of all that which I have or which belongs to me this attitude develops and that is reasonlessness. In all the sorrowful happenings, this attitude of reasonlessness of attachment is the cause of all the covers or prejudices which cbstruct the real seeing. My-ness is such a cover that it includes all other covers (distortions).
The development of equanimity reduces my-ness or attachment and this reduction enables the seer to see things or happenings of the world in that form in which they are. In all the varieties, in all the pluralities one imbibing element which is propeller of all the things, can be seen by such a seer in its real form through the method of epuanimous philosophy. This element is soul which can see itself and the world in real form by making itself more efficient, ie., more equanimous. Realisation of Luminous Form of Soul :
The Vitality of this immense Universe rests on one element which is soul. If all the souls tinged with the colour of equanimity move in this Universe then spirituality may be more deep and all spreading in spite of world liness. The equanimous link among the soul will provide expansion of equanimity and equality in the external social order. The luminous real form of soul can be seen by dropping down every cover of inequanimity. Absence of mynessis the presence of equalness.
The worldly soul has the various covers of 'Karmas', The layers of these covers are changed but not the covers. The removal of covers needs strong efforts which will be possible only when one has the equanimous vision. This equanimous vision will enable a person to see himself and the Universe equanimously.
