The purpose of all scriptural knowledge is to liberate the aspirant from the snares of maya. Knowledge and meditation are the key. Knowledge without vairagya, non-attachment, is of little use in attaining the highest state. The aspirant should gradually tread the path of controlling the senses. Then, making the mind one-pointed, he attains concentration. As concentration strengthens, meditation leads the student to the threshold of samadhi. —Swami Rama, Life Here and Hereafter L1902 Allahabad
