five effects surround the Divine flame as sheaths one around the other.
The aim of every Soul is to remove these sheaths of Upădhis one by one. This is
the purpose of concentration and meditation as in Raja Yoga. Raja Yoga is a discipline
of the mind. There are five states of the mind as layers around it. Each one of
these layers as you see have several other causes and effects associated with
it. The purpose of the Yoga is to identify the various factors and control them
and their effects and remove the cause. First we have to question and understand
the situation by deliberation and analysis. The ultimate aim should br control
of the mind and its desires, by self awareness to reach ultimate True happiness.
There is self centered thoughts with the feeling of " I ", " Me & Myself "
and My or " Mine " - desires of Ego, profit, posession, greed, pleasure and
lust, and also intent to cause harm to attain that goal.
