Faculties of knowledge and renunciation will
have to be strengthened. We will have to
remind ourselves time and again that though
we went for all kinds of pleasures, gave our

consumables, even then, they are not satiated.
The whole life was spent in meeting their
never-ending demands. What's the result? We,
as slaves of senses, have failed to go ahead.
No satisfaction till date and the mind still longs
for the pleasures and so on. Such a stream
of thought functions as a brake for the mind.
The mind is able to hold itself. The spirit of
renunciation dawns, and the mind starts
