THE MIRROR OF WISDOM.
A clean, beautiful and flawless mirror reflects the objects best. But when covered by dust and dirt, it can not reflect the object clearly.
The Atman is also a mirror and we can see the reflection of Paramaatmaa in it.
The dust covering the Atman are the six defects of the mind viz Kaama, Krodha, Loba, Moha, Mada, Maacharya.
To clean a mirror we need a small piece of cloth. How can we clean the mirror of Atman, which in itself is elusive and invisible?
Dhyaanam, Taps, Soucham, Arjavam, Thyaagam, bakthi are the towels that are capable of cleaning the invisible and elusive Atman.
Now that we know how to clean the mirror and get a glimpse of the Supreme, let us try our best to get it.
