#50. வேகத்தடை.
எண்ணம் , மூச்சு விடுதல் ஆகிய இரண்டும்
ஒரே ஆற்றலின் இரு வேறு பகுதிகள்.
இரண்டுமே அந்த ஆற்றலைச் சார்ந்து இருக்கின்றன.
நேரடியாக எண்ணங்களை அடக்க முடியாதவருக்கு
மூச்சை அடக்குதல் தேவை.
காருக்கு வேகத் தடை போன்றது அது.

#51. பிராணாயாமம்.
மிதக்கும் ஒரு பொருள் தானாகவே மூழ்காது.
அதனை அமிழ்த்த கனமான ஒரு பொருள் தேவை.
மனம் என்பது மிதக்கும் பொருள் போன்றது.
அதனை அமிழ்த்த பிராணாயாமம் பயன்படுகிறது.
அப்போது மனம் அமைதி பெறும்.
மன அமைதி கிட்டிய பின்னரும் தியானம் தேவை.
பின் மனம் இதயத்தில் மூழ்கிப் போகிறது.

# 52. "நான் யார்?"

ஆத்மாவை அடைய இவ்வகையில் தியானியுங்கள்.

ஒவ்வொரு எண்ணத்துக்கும் உரிய மூலத்தைத் தேடுங்கள்.

எண்ணத்தை ஒருபோதும் ஓட விடாதீர்கள்.

அவ்வாறு செய்தால் அதற்கு முடிவே இல்லை.

அதைத் தொடங்கிய இடத்துக்கே அழைத்துச் சென்றால்,

மனம் அங்கேயே செயலற்று இறந்து போகும்.

"நான் யார்?" என்ற கேள்விக்குத் திரும்புங்கள்.

#54. அறிபவனும், அறியும் பொருளும்.

அறியப்படும் பொருள் அறிபவனைச் சார்ந்தே இருக்கிறது,

ஆகவே அறிபவனே உண்மை.

கவனம் அறிபவனை நோக்கித் திருப்பப்படல் வேண்டும்.

"நான்" என்பதன் வேர் அறிபவனே.

அதனை உணர்தல் வேண்டும்.

இதுவரை அறியும் பொருள் பற்றி படிக்கின்றோமோ தவிர

அறிபவனைப் பற்றி அன்று.

"நான்" என்பது எதனைக் குறிக்கின்றது

என்று இனிக் கண்டு பிடியுங்கள்.
