Just as the pure crystal takes color from the object which is nearest to it, so the mind, when it is cleared of thought-waves, achieves sameness or identity with the object of its concentration.
PatanjaliWhen you are steadfast in your abstention of thoughts of harm directed toward yourself and others, all living creatures will cease to feel fear in your presence.
PatanjaliThe heart and mind can find peace and harmony by contemplating the transcendental nature of the true self as supreme effulgent life.
