Abide in me
mayy eva mana ādhatsva mayi buddhiṁ niveśaya |
nivasiṣyasi mayy eva ata ūrdhvaṁ na saṁśayaḥ ||
Fix the mind on me alone, place the thought process in me.
Hereafter, without doubt, you will abide in me alone.
(Bhagavad Gita 12.8,
- Trans. MWright)
The above Verse from Bhagavad Gita is a concise description of vicāra (Self-enquiry).
Note: “Who am l?” - the thought process arises from “me”. Trace the source. Remain there.
