Duality dhyana

Sri Sadgurubhyoh Namah

1) Chapter 7, Text 27
iccha‑dvesa‑samutthena
dvandva‑mohena bharata
sarva‑bhutani sammoham
sarge yanti parantapa



TRANSLATION
O scion of Bharata, O conqueror of the foe, all living entities are born into delusion, bewildered by dualities arisen from desire and hate.

Dhyana : Observe your thoughts. Take one random thought, and analyze it. Observe the root cause of that thought, it will either be due to some desire or due to something that you don’t  want. Understand that all thoughts arise out of either desire or hate. 

2) Chapter 7, Text 28
yesam tv anta‑gatam papam
jananam punya‑karmanam
te dvandva‑moha‑nirmukta
bhajante mam drdha‑vratah



TRANSLATION
Persons who have acted piously in previous lives and in this life and whose sinful actions are completely eradicated are freed from the dualities of delusion, and they engage themselves in My service with determination.

Dhyana : Having understood the nature of all thoughts as arising out of desire or hate, Observe the vagaries of mind with thoughts borne out of desire and hate, compare it with the state of mind which has unselfish desire in mind. Make a resolution that you will do unselfish actions that does not arise out of desire or hate.
