Sri Sadgurubhyoh Namah
Chapter 2, Text 62
dhyayato visayan pumsah
sangas tesupajayate
sangat sanjayate kamah
kamat krodho 'bhijayate
TRANSLATION
While contemplating the objects of the senses, a person develops attachment for
them, and from such attachment lust develops, and from lust anger arises.
Dhyana : Bring to
your mind something you intensely desire and which you are not able to acquire.
Observe that the mind (heart
center) is subjected to suffering
because of the longing desire in your mind. Search your mind on why you have
such desire for that object (thing, or person). Find the root cause of the desire.
Understand that initially, there is no desire, but on continuously thinking
about an object, desire arises to acquire that object. If you acquire, then
temporarily, mind becomes silent. If not able to acquire, then unfulfilled
desire leads to anger. Understand that all anger is because of unfulfilled
desires, and the root cause of desire is the constant thinking of that object.
