An agitated mind seeking sensuous joys has three fundamental imperfections. Unless these faults are removed, there can be no effective meditation. The first of them is excessive flow of thoughts, namely the quantity of thoughts in the mind is poor and degrading and lastly, the direction in which the thoughts are channelized is forwards lower values of life. These have to be carefully dealt with and directed, for. Then alone can man gain a relative equanimity which is an essential pre-requisite for and attempt at meditation. The spiritual discipline advised for effecting a reduction of the quantity of thoughts in the mind is the path of action. This discipline is directed to one’s physical personality. By Karma Yoga is mean selfless action dedicated to the general prosperity of one and all. It is practiced by surrendering all activities is a higher ideal. When one continues to practice this art of right action, the mind, instead of pursuing the senses, maintains the thought of the higher ideal and ideal-logy and thereby succeeds in reducing the quantity of thoughts. The quantity of thoughts is improved by the path of action, which is prescribed for one’s mental or emotional personality. Devotion is the same as love with one difference. That the latter is directed to lower objects and beings. While the former is to a prostration practiced and surrender of the ego in dedication to the God which is practiced regularly. In fact, man needs to practice all the paths together to the extent each shall be followed would depend upon the nature of his inner personality. He needs to take more time and spend more time to study the ancient scriptures. With all this, his agitation in mind is reduced to a great extent. It is said that youth is the best part of life and the old age the worst part of it. But it is a mistaken view. The fact is that old age is as glorious as the youth. The youth has tremendous energy, zeal and enthusiasm with which great things can be accomplished. Youth is the period when our life’s mission may be realized with e greater certainty. It is the period when death is yet very far offs and there are opportunities to do as much as possible for ourselves and the society. When we are old, we feel death very near as a means of securing a certificate and so are not able to put their whole mind into the studies.
