Misery can be overcome through meditation
Chapter 8 - The Veils Of Misery
Day 66
When you make the sources of misery and the fears more and more subtle, they let you return to your Self. They let you bring the mind back to the Source. When these miseries are very thick, they bother you.
They captivate your mind. When they become thinner and thinner, they begin to let your mind become free and get back to its Self, the Source. When you are craving for somebody and it is not subtle, you are unable to relax or even be still.
However, once that craving is gone, then you are able to relax and meditate. The feverishness gets reduced and the mind can get back to the source. Now, what is the way to get rid of these miseries? These five vrittis can be eliminated through meditation.
Misery can be overcome through meditation. Patanjali emphasized that it could be done only through meditation. If you do not do it, then what will happen?
