UPARAM ( RETIREMENT ) :-

The more a seeker's mind retires from its direct involvement in the world of sense-objects, and from attachment to things, and beings,the more he develops what is technically called in Vedanta "retirement"( Uparam ). As the mind retires from the world outside, it enters more and more into subtler realms of the Essence. Those subtler realms are the mystic regions of strange beauty, of unearthly brilliance, of heavenly melody, of super-sensuous joys. "Retirement"of the mind leads it to "extreme peace"( Upa-sama ).

SAMADHI:-

"The total Quietude of mind", The Still Intellect", "The Transcendence Experienced"-----called Samadhi. this is the culminating goal of meditation, which is attained by a seeker, to the extent he clutches himself off from the worldly lust-prompted activities, to that extent his becomes the march towards the goal.

LEAVING THE PRESENT STATE:-

"No progress in any walk of life is possible without leaving the present state and moving forward to win the new state of greater glory. No growth is possible unless there is a willingness to drop out of our previous conditions and accept the ampler status of the new conditions. Childhood must end in the youngster; the youth must end in the old man. If a bud is not ready to end its present state, how can it grow and unfold itself to become a flower?"

OUR MIND TODAY:-

Our mental power, so entirely invested today in our outward life, must be curbed in order to turn it, in all its rich strength, to the within.Naturally, to the extent to which we are successful in the curbing of the lower mind from its play in the lower planes, to that extent the higher mind shall discover itself revelling in its own meditative flights in the higher planes of Consciousness."[ to be cot---d]
