Freeing the mind of all
Freeing the mind of all support one should not allow any thought to arise. Then O gazelle-eyed Goddess, the state of Bhairava will be attained when the (individual) self has merged in the Absolute Self.
Vijñāna Bhairava Tantra - 108
Introduction - The Sphere of Reality
Reality in its simplest form can be seen as a sphere or as an egg. This spherical model can be conceptually divided into two halves: the upper hemisphere and the lower hemisphere. The upper hemisphere is the most subtle. It contains the consciousness, the being, the Supersoul. And the lower hemisphere is the most visible - the physical body, along with prana. The two hemispheres are interconnected by a plane, which is the mind.
What is Mind
What is mind? It is a complex and multifaceted concept that has been the subject of study and debate among philosophers, scientists, and spiritual thinkers for centuries. One way to understand the mind is to consider it a part which has been given to you. It is not yours. The mind is an accumulation, borrowed from various sources — from the parents, from the neighbors, from the teachers, from the society, from the social media, from the libraries. Its hunger is insatiable, continuously absorbing all kinds of information, even contradictory ones, which may lead to tensions and internal conflicts. For instance, if one is born into a Christian family, they might believe from childhood that the Earth is 6000 years old as stated in the Bible. However, upon learning in school that the Earth is actually 4.5 billion years old, both pieces of information are stored in the mind, causing conflict and anxiety and inner turmoil. And it is impossible for one to decide which way to go; one is pulled apart in all directions. If somehow he can maintain his balance, this is normal insanity. Insanity is there, but it is just the same as everybody else’s.
Sane and Insane
Carl Gustav Jung, the father of analytical psychology remarks, “show me a sane man and I will cure him for you”. Whenever somebody goes beyond the boundary of normal humanity, he is considered insane. If an individual manages to contain their inner turmoil without causing societal disruption or distress to others, they are deemed sane.
In contrast, Eastern psychology asserts that only a yogi can be considered truly sane. Insanity, whether expressed or unexpressed, is still insanity. How, then, does the mind of a yogi operate?
