With an Advaita Commentary from our Understanding
by Kenneth Jaques | 31,733 words
The Mandukya Upanishad is a short, just twelve verses, description of the material manifestation and the eventual return to unmanifest form of the Universe....
Verse 41
41. As there would be the draining out of the sea by one drop of water at a time by means of the point of a blade of Kusa grass, so would be the control of the mind without all out toiling.
The analogy of the almost impossible task of emptying the sea a tiny drop at a time with the almost impossible task of controlling the mind without effort, practice and a system or Yoga is made here.
