LECTURE NINETEEN
SYNOPSIS
* An energised mind accompanied by the consciousness of
duality produces misery. * Consciousness of duality produces tension. Tension pro
duces mental deformities and diseases. * The main part of mental therapy is the lessening of
tensions.
* Let the feeling of equality and self-awakening continue
indefinitely. * Consciousness of duality is the fertile ground for
emotions and impulses. Griefs and problems grow in this ground. Three major inspirations from consciousness free from duality : * Man by his very nature shuns problems and miseries. * Supersensual tendencies of the brain. * Experience of freedom.
* Consciousness free from duality is called Sāmayika. * Attainment of consciousness free from duality is the grea
test aspiration. * Results of Sāmāyika :
* Control of mental processes. * End of problems. * Beginning of a life free from problems and grief.
