We need to understand and act in a way so as to take away force and vitality (refuse assent and encouragement) from all kinds of vrutties that arise in the our mind. It does not help much to announce loudly or give certain instructions to follow like ' Control the vrutties' , ' control yourself', follow this or that method'. When a human has an ardent and heartfelt desire towards the goal in life and has genuine eager bewilderment (વ્યાકુળતા, vyakulata), then only the work of self development is really experienced. If we have real eager bewilderment towards our goal of life's development or God then other things will fall in place. I feel that teachings like ' do this or that ' usually takes us in a wrong direction and for no reason makes it more difficult to achieve the goal when it can be done easily. If our heart gets absorbed in the goal of self development, it will become easy and natural to reject negative sentient vrutties whenever it arise. If we stick to our sadhana like the flow of river Ganges (continuous) at all times with heartfelt sincerity everything else will fall in place automatically. " Seek ye first the kingdom of Heaven and all else shall be added unto you". This is the promise of Jesus Christ. We can derive the same meaning from the view point of sadhana.
