Turn one's mind towards the objective world, you are BOUND! Turn it towards God, you are on the road to LIBERATION!

part 1

For liberation from bondage to desire,
the mind is the only instrument available to man.

Turn it towards the objective world,
you are bound; turn it towards God,
you are on the road to liberation.

The mind refuses to be calm even
for a fraction of a second.

When a continuous shower of stones
is falling on the waters of a lake,
how can the surface be calm and unruffled?

So, too, man is throwing stone
after stone of desire on the calm lake of the mind.
