MIND DISAPPEARS TO VISION:-4.

When our anxious demand to master the mind reaches its peak, a sincere and deep urgency comes to assert itself to accomplish, as quickly as possible, this release of our individuality from the suicidal tyranny of our own mind. This anxious urgency is called "sraddha". As a seeker  cultivates himself/herself, and grow in his/her depth-sraddha, he/she discovers in himself/herself an endless enthusiasm to put forth any amount of joyous efforts at mastering his.her mind. Without such a spring of enlivening enthusiasm, the sraddha becomes laborious, unrewarding, burdensome, and sooner or later the seeker leaves the field, vanquished and routed by the mind.

Once we generate in our heart a certain  amount  of this spiritual enthusiasm, we can readily remember our chosen goal constantly. If the constant awareness of the goal is blazing in the highways of our mind, then in our hurried living and rush of the events and happenings we will not, even accidentally, run out catering to the idle demands of the mind and thus fall again unwillingly into some new sets of clinging attachments, expecting happiness from acquisition and possession of, and indulgence in the world.  The constant remembrance of  our goal will serve as a steady warning light, and it will guide us aright steadily on our pilgrimage through all the day to day contentions of the busy brutal life in the community.
