P. 201

quiet that we get among varying thoughts, the relative quiet will come to us for a few seconds.
Man has three types of impurities: Mala, Vikshepa and Avarana. Master states categorically unless these impurities or coverings are removed, inspiration or guidance from the inner voice is meaningless. ("Reality at Dawn," p. 59). Mala means superficial impurities or dirt that are caused by lack of control over the senses, such as laziness, sloth, attraction to trivia and giving up impulsive tendencies towards sensory pleasures.
Vikshepa means the unreal projections of desires for enjoyment, such as greed avarice, jealousy and others.
Avarana means the layers of grossness due to past Samskaras or impressions in the five layers of our being named as Physical, Vital, Mental, Aspirational and Ecstatic (Annamaya, Pranamaya, Manomaya, Vijnanamaya and Anandamaya) which drag a person down through formation of the Antahkarana (Inner Apparatus that moves from one life to another called as Jiva) and form as a barrier for the Union between man and God which is the primary right of every human being.
