Unless the thoughts that derive support from these apparatus is controlled there is no possibility of learning the language of feeling or in other words the entry to super conscious levels is out of question. That is why the most preliminary apparatus i.e. Chit has to be controlled for doing sadhana. Unless Chit is controlled, we will not learn the language of feeling. ‘Chitta vrtti nirodham yogama’. That is the stream of thoughts or stream of consciousness has to be controlled. This by itself is nothing. But this unfortunately has been confused to be the goal itself. There lies the fallacy. When the chitta is controlled we begin to learn the language of feeling. We start feeling the divine spark within. The Divinity is felt as something that is closest to us. As we have stated that chitta vrtti can be controlled only when we meditate on Points ‘A’ and ‘B’. This is the logic of this system of Rajayoga of Sri Ramchandra. This is a new discovery that enables to feel the presence of the Divinity by attending to simple meditational practices.
