56. Do not act, do not talk, do not think, so that the soul may be attached to and fixed in itself. This only is excellent meditation.
COMMENTARY To attain excellent Dhyana (ineditation). one should turn all his faculties inwards, and restrain all outward movement of the same. First of all, it is necessary to stop all actions and refrain from talk and thought of anything else. Then the soul should turn upon itself anci begin to meditate on its own nature. This is Dhvana. To reaclı this stage, one must first check all activities of body, inind and speech which produce disquietude of the soul, for it is impossible to arrive at the quiet stage necessary for meditation if we do not first check the disturbing elements.
