Sri Yantra 

ॐ 

    The 'mind’, hankering after things of the World, is more restless than a monkey. If one controls it from wandering after external things and holds it in the 'void of non-matter’, one will attain Liberation, directly.

    Awakening this 'mind’ with effort, and without allowing it to wander, establish it in the state of 'SELF’. Persevere in this effort by fixing the 'mind’ again and again in its 'Natural State’.

    When one adopts the practice [ sadhana ] by means of which one’s 'mind’, which is restless like the 'wind’, is made 'still’ perpetually, then, the purpose of taking birth as a human being is fulfilled. That is also the mark of 'True Wisdom’.

ॐ

ॐ

    There is no room for performing puja [worship of deities], namaskar  [paying homage, like prostrations],  japa [incantation],  dhyana [contemplation] and so on. Hear from Me that the Highest Truth acclaimed in the Vedas, can be known only through Jnana; hence, there is absolutely no need to know anything outside of one's Self.

    For those whose 'minds' are constantly expanding, clinging to external objects, factors will always arise causing increasing 'bondage'. If the outward-wandering 'mind' is turned inwards to stay in its 'Natural State', know that one will not undergo any suffering in the World. 

    Good actions and good conduct have been prescribed only to guide the seeker towards the 'Path of acquiring Wisdom'. Therefore, giving up even 'salamba yoga' in which an object [such as a mantra or a Form of God] is meditated upon in the 'mind', stay steadfast in your 'Real State' [Sahaja Swarupa], where the outside World is not perceived.

– SRI BHAGAVAN on “ DEVIKALOTTARA ”, V. 17-18-25

ॐ

    A "mente", que anseia pelas coisas do mundo, é mais irrequieta que um macaco. Se uma pessoa a controlar, impedindo-a de vagar pelas coisas externas, e a mantiver no 'vazio da não-matéria', a pessoa alcançará a Libertação, diretamente.

    Desperte essa 'mente' esforçando-se, e sem permitir que ela vagueie, estabeleça-a no estado de 'SER'. Persevere neste esforço fixando a "mente" repetidas vezes no seu "estado natural".

   Quando uma pessoa adota a prática [sadhana] por meio da qual a 'mente', que é irrequieta como o 'vento', se torna 'quieta' perpetuamente, então, o propósito de nascer como um ser humano é cumprido. Essa é também a marca da "verdadeira sabedoria".

ॐ

ॐ

    The state in which the mind is bereft of any 'support’ to cling to, ever faultless and pure, and devoid of Worldly attachments, is the 'Nature of Liberation’ attained through 'Wisdom’. Keep this firmly in 'mind’.

    Dispelling all attachments completely, and fixing that 'mind’ in the 'HEART’ firmly, persist in your practice ALWAYS in order to strengthen the 'AWARENESS’, which then shines forth with great effulgence and clarity.

    Know that whoever meditates on that 'Supreme Void”, and becomes established in it by virtue of constant practice, will definitely attain the 'Great State’, which is beyond birth and death.

ॐ 

  – SRI BHAGAVAN in “ DEVIKALOTTARA ” , vv. 40,41,42

ॐ

    O estado no qual a mente é destituída de qualquer 'suporte' ao qual se apegar, sempre impecável e puro, e destituído de apegos ao Mundo, é a 'Natureza da Libertação' obtida através da 'Sabedoria'. Mantenha isto firmemente em "mente".

    Afastando completamente todos os apegos e fixando firmemente essa 'mente' no 'CORAÇÃO', persista na sua prática SEMPRE a fim de fortalecer a 'CONSCIÊNCIA', que então resplandece com grande esplendor e clareza.

    Saiba que quem meditar nesse 'Supremo Vazio' e nele se estabelecer em virtude de prática constante, atingirá definitivamente o 'Grande Estado', que está para além do nascimento e da morte.

"If the mind falls asleep, awaken it. Then if it starts wandering, make it quiet. If you reach the state where there is neither sleep nor movement of mind, stay still in that, the natural (real) state."   ~Devikalottara

[kriyayogasadhana]

For those whose minds are constantly expanding, clinging to external objects, factors will always arise causing increasing bondage. If the outward-wandering mind is turned inwards to stay in its natural state, know that one will not undergo any suffering in the world. Unite with that one totality, which is all-pervasive, which has no inside or outside, which is bereft of all (concept of) directions such as above, below and in between, which assumes all the forms in creation and yet is itself formless, which can be known only by itself, and which is self-luminous. ~ Devikalottara
