23:52

Without steadiness in knowledge, the weakness of just one sense organ can cause one’s downfall.

Swamiji beautifully illustrates this through the significance of the Satya…

Obsessive desire for anything constitutes lust. Lust when obstructed leads to anger, and this anger deludes us, causing us to lose our ability to discriminate between what is real and unreal.

Swamiji clearly points out how our raga (attachment), leads to bhaya (fear) and krodha (anger), and the stithaprajna is free from them. Their mind is not dependent on any outer object, hence the level of detachment which they operate from. The person of perfection also sees beyond ‘good’ and ‘bad’, neither complains nor praises, and is ever fixed i…
