Of mental japa

If you are not sure how to do vichara,
it is better to do mental japa
than to waste time discussing how to do vichara.

When it is difficult to do mental japa,
how is it possible to do vichara
which is much subtler?

Japa, which is outside in the beginning,
will pull you down  from inside
and lead you to the Heart.
Then you will know how to do vichara.

    Japa means clinging to one though to the exclusion of all other thoughts. That is its purpose.

    It leads to dhyana which ends in Selfrealization or jnana.

Non veritatem amant,  sed disputationem.
