MIND : ITS MYSTERIES AND CONTROL : 11-1.2.
Chapter -11. VRITTIS-1.
1. VRITTI— ITS NATURE AND FUNCTION-2.
The Chitta is the mind stuff.
It is the mental substance.
Vritti or thought-wave is a modification of that mental substance.
It is a process.
Just as waves and bubbles arise from the surface of the ocean, so also these Vrittis arise from the surface of the mind-ocean.
Just as rays emanate from the sun, so also these mental rays (modification of Vrittis) emanate from the mind-sun.
Just as the sun merges itself in the horizon at sunset by collecting all its rays, so also you will have to merge in that Sun of suns, Absolute Consciousness, Eternal Peace by collecting all the dissipated mental rays and dissolving the mind itself.
