1. OM: Here follows Instruction in Union.

1/12/2026

3. Then the Seer comes to consciousness in his proper nature.

1/12/2026

4. Heretofore the Seer has been enmeshed in the activities of the psychic nature.

1/12/2026

5. The psychic activities are five; they are either subject or not subject to the five hindrances (Book II, 3).

Duration:00:00:45

6. These activities are: Sound intellection, unsound intellection, predication, sleep, memory.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:26

7. The elements of sound intellection are: direct observation, inductive reason, and trustworthy testimony.

1/12/2026

8. Unsound intellection is false understanding, not resting on a perception of the true nature of things.

11. Memory is holding to mind-images of things perceived, without modifying them.

1/12/2026

12. The control of these psychic activities comes through the right use of the will, and through ceasing from self-indulgence.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:28

13. The right use of the will is the steady, effort to stand in spiritual being.

1/12/2026

14. This becomes a firm resting-place, when followed long, persistently, with earnestness.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:29

15. Ceasing from self-indulgence is conscious mastery over the thirst for sensuous pleasure here or hereafter.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:37

16. The consummation of this is freedom from thirst for any mode of psychical activity, through the establishment of the spiritual man.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:44

17. Meditation with an object follows these stages: first, exterior examining, then interior judicial action, then joy, then realization of individual being.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:43

18. After the exercise of the will has stilled the psychic activities, meditation rests only on the fruit of former meditations.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:25

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:34

23. Or spiritual consciousness may be gained by ardent service of the Master.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:28

24. The Master is the spiritual man, who is free from hindrances, bondage to works, and the fruition and seed of works.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:25

Duration:00:00:28

29. Thence come the awakening of interior consciousness, and the removal of barriers.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:01:21

30. The barriers to interior consciousness, which drive the psychic nature this way and that, are these: sickness, inertia, doubt, lightmindedness, laziness, intemperance, false notions, inability to reach a stage of meditation, or to hold it when reached

1/12/2026

Duration:00:01:05

31. Grieving, despondency, bodily restlessness, the drawing in and sending forth of the life-breath also contribute to drive the psychic nature to and fro.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:45

32. Steady application to a principle is the way to put a stop to these.

1/12/2026

33. By sympathy with the happy, compassion for the sorrowful, delight in the holy, disregard of the unholy, the psychic nature moves to gracious peace.

1/12/2026

1/12/2026

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:30

41. When the perturbations of the psychic nature have all been stilled, then the consciousness, like a pure crystal, takes the colour of what it rests on, whether that be the perceiver, perceiving, or the thing perceived.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:50

42. When the consciousness, poised in perceiving, blends together the name, the object dwelt on and the idea, this is perception with exterior consideration.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:01:07

43. When the object dwells in the mind, clear of memory-pictures, uncoloured by the mind, as a pure luminous idea, this is perception without exterior or consideration.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:43

1/12/2026

Duration:00:01:07

46. The above are the degrees of limited and conditioned spiritual consciousness, still containing the seed of separateness.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:28

47. When pure perception without judicial action of the mind is reached, there follows the gracious peace of the inner self.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:35

48. In that peace, perception is unfailingly true.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:29

49. The object of this perception is other than what is learned from the sacred books, or by sound inference, since this perception is particular.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:38

50. The impress on the consciousness springing from this perception supersedes all previous impressions.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:47

51. When this impression ceases, then, since all impressions have ceased, there arises pure spiritual consciousness, with no seed of separateness left.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:01:23

2. Their aim is, to bring soul-vision, and to wear away hindrances.

3. These are the hindrances: the darkness of unwisdom, self-assertion, lust hate, attachment.

1/12/2026

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:45

5 The darkness of ignorance is: holding that which is unenduring, impure, full of pain, not the Soul, to be eternal, pure, full of joy, the Soul.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:45

6. Self-assertion comes from thinking of the Seer and the instrument of vision as forming one self.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:49

7. Lust is the resting in the sense of enjoyment.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:39

8. Hate is the resting in the sense of pain.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:24

9. Attachment is the desire toward life, even in the wise, carried forward by its own energy.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:43

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:53

11. Their active turnings are to be removed by meditation.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:28

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:38

13. From this root there grow and ripen the fruits of birth, of the life-span, of all that is tasted in life.

Duration:00:01:09

16. This pain is to be warded off, before it has come.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:21

17. The cause of what is to be warded off, is the absorption of the Seer in things seen.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:28

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:30

1/12/2026

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:42

23. The association of the Seer with things seen is the cause of the realizing of the nature of things seen, and also of the realizing of the nature of the Seer.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:42

24. The cause of this association is the darkness of unwisdom.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:00:23

25. The bringing of this association to an end, by bringing the darkness of unwisdom to an end, is the great liberation; this is the Seer’s attainment of his own pure being.

1/12/2026

Duration:00:01:15

9. One of the ascending degrees is the development of Control. First there is the overcoming of the mind-impress of excitation. Then comes the manifestation of the mind-impress of Control. Then the perceiving consciousness follows after the moment of Cont
