God within oneself starts to shine all the divine qualities.

Meditation Yoga

Chapter 6, Verse 19

yathā dīpo nivātasthe

neṅgate sopamā smṛtā

yogino yata-cittasya

yuñjato yogam-ātmanaḥ

Motionless, like the light of a lamp in a windless place, is the controlled consciousness of the yogi who practises union with the Self.

Here Lord Krishna says that when the mind is restrained by the practice of yoga, it becomes “motionless, like the light of a lamp in a windless place.” When people have faith and are surrendered, nothing can move them. No disturbance of the outside reality can deviate them from their aim. They are fully in control.

Bhagavan Krishna says that the focus and concentration of the disciplined mind of a bhakta, of a devotee, is so fixed on God in meditation that it doesn’t move to anything else. When you are absorbed in that reality, you are not thinking of when you will finish your meditation. And you don’t set your alarm clock next to you, because your mind, even while you’re sitting in meditation, will be sitting on the alarm. You will not be hearing the cosmic sound within you, but you will be waiting to hear the

alarm ringing. This is not the state of a yogi. Here Krishna makes an analogy between a still mind and an unmoving flame: the mind is “motionless like the light of a lamp in a windless place.” A flame is always moving, but when it is sheltered, blocked from all sides, it doesn’t move, it doesn’t flicker; it is stable, it shines, it radiates light! Like that, when one is fully absorbed in the Divine Self, God within oneself, nothing can deviate one from the path and automatically one starts to shine all the divine qualities.
