Vaasanaas (Tendencies) (Continuation) Desire to achieve name and fame in the world is “Lokavaasana”. An aspirant has to destroy all the three kinds of vaasanaas. With the ending of vaasanaas, mind also ends, just like a disappearance of a shadow. When the mind is destroyed what remains is our own ever effulgent Self. This is the state which Bhagavan calls “Braahmeesthiti” in Gita and the Upanishads declare as “Amrtatva” or Immortality after attaining which there is no coming back. Such a Jnaani (wise person) or Jeevanmukta (liberated from worldly objects) will not be in “Samsaara” but out of “Samsaara”…………………….Sri Swamiji
