your support comes from ‘relative' knowledge, then as your location changes, so too will your inner intent (bhaav). This is knowledge mediated through the senses (indriya-gnan) and it is because of it, that the inner intent (bhaav) changes. Once the knowledge of the Self is attained, the bhaavako will no longer have the control.

Lord Mahavir practiced the very same penance. Until the very end He unrelentingly endured the penance, and
