Page 69 - Path to Perfection

it is to be pulled downwards, and made to descend, and then again drawn up at will. If due to straying wayward, some excess occurs, then it is to be evaporated through the navel. But this is not to be given out to people in general, nor is it to be something for general practice, so that they may not draw this power beyond limits under intoxication of pleasure, which may become difficult to manage and control. This can be done by a person of great capability for control. To you I have told this because you have almost eradicated it. There is much need of correct estimate in regard, so that more than what may be needed is not drawn up. Hence I am telling this only for use by very special people. In our circle no special emphasis is laid on this point in order to avoid any possibility of undue arousal of this power. This point can be dealt within a proper way only by someone, who has developed full expertness about use of this power, and in whose case this point has been sufficiently cleaned. A person of the status of pole star (Dhruva or Qutub) is to be preferred for this purpose, because he acquires expertness about his point. This, however, does not mean that he does not observe precautions.”

“When man is engaged in remembrance of God; and the current, which I have named as such for your comprehension, is inverted to reach the original Reality, then the same effect starts descending by way of the other current which I have described as the current of carnality. Thus carnality is purified and loses its usual glamour and sharpness. Therefore, in our system carnality gets perfected last of all, and this is the principle everywhere.

Carnality - Calculated Control Of
The method of calculated control of carnality (Muhasiba-i-Nafsa) is from my practice: Where from thoughts may be rising up, that is to be merged in oneself. Oneself means one’s soul. Whenever thoughts may rise up, their base be got merged (in oneself). The result of this will be so fine that people will feel astonished. The method, in general, is to take oneself as Master, and merge into That. One who does not have faith in Master, cannot derive benefit from this method.”
