Mind is the Cause of Bondage and Freedom

In this talk, Swamiji focusses on the fact that mind alone is the cause of bondage and also freedom. It is upto a person to enrich the mind and make it flexible, assimilative and harmonious.

Whenever we are faced with a challenging situation, our mind has to simply learn to accept whatever has taken place.

It is clinging and fascination to objects that puts us in trouble. The mind gets attached to its own impressions. A seeker has to understand this by repeated introspection and assimilate all the inputs from the world.

Shlokas chanted in the Track:

मन एव मनुष्याणां कारणं बन्धमोक्षयोः ।
बन्धाय विषयासक्तं मुक्त्यै निर्विषयं स्मृतम् ॥
Brahmabindu Upanishad-2
